JJ, you can find the Cardex info here

The VIN was 'surgically' removed and unfortunately doesn't look like it was a result of damage. I'll look again at the seams and welds to see if perhaps the entire front clip was replaced at one time.
I've contacted PCNA and hope to hear back from them tomorrow.
