Default is it worth it?

i found a 1984 Z28 for sale in my area for 600 bucks it runs drives etc the body looks good and has been repainted before but the only problem its missing its vin plate.

So how hard would it be to get a new vin plate for it (if i even can)?

I have no experience about that kind of stuff, but I would tend to think that it might be more hassle than it's worth.

There are plenty more $600 84 Z28's out there with the VIN plate intact.

The car is junk. Without a VIN tag on a car that older especially, anyone who sees it will get it towed and crushed.
