Billy,
I mis-understood your approach. Some people in the past have bought a junker just to get the title, then swapped VIN tags or otherwise presented their untitled vehicle as the one that matches the title. I totally agree that your approach is 100% legal, using your non-titled vehicle as a parts car to build out a titled vehicle. Hopefully you can find a way with the NM DMV to get your paperwork clear.
