A vin must conform to a vin standard with check digts etc... Making up any or all of a vin won't help. Not sure a political figure will either. Come to think of it I have yet to find any valuable use for a political figure (ie, Obama supporting Gates w/o knowledge, but don't get me started!!)

First off, can you find someone else from Pa. who has gone down this road with an NSR and see how thay did it?
In Mi. there is a Secretary of State (Our version of a DMV, refered to as SOS) form refered to as a VIN inspection form. Any law enforcment officer can inspect the vehicle to determine if the vin supplied to SOS is the actual vin on the vehicle. The form also has a place on it for a full blown vehicle inspection, such as lights, horn, tire tread depth, windshield wipers, yada, yada, yada. You might check in Pa to see if they have something similar. I know here in Mi. that form carries alot of weight. It shows SOS that law enforcement has confirmed the vin and ran the vin to determine the vehicle isn't stolen. It also can satisfy the SOS that the vehicle is a road worthy vehicle by way of the total inspection.
Also, simply ask your DMV what they need to make it happen. It's been done before and it will be done again. It's just red tape.

Good luck,
Dan
