Not sure on what you mean by investigation. If you mean trying to find the title for the frame in question, I can't help there.
I have titled several out of state Broncos here in NC. Anything over 35 years of age with an out of state title requires a physical VIN inspection by a DOT/DMV po po. You will not get a NC title until you get that done.
Depending on the inspector, they might check the frame and body for VIN's. I've had some that just looked at the glove box door. I've had others that knew right where the frame VIN should be and checked it as well. It is a roll of the dice as far as that goes. There is no associated fee with the inspection but you do need to either bring it all by their office during their office hours or schedule an inspection at your address. They may or may not show up on the day you set up, in which case you'd have to set another appointment up if they didn't show. Gotta love the govt.
I don't think I'd progress very far without getting it all squared away first.
