Yeah, I'm with most of the others. A steel-frame chopper? If the weld looked like it was done by somebody who knew WTF they were doing, probably. A powerful, short-wheelbase bike with an aluminum frame? No way.
Personally, I'd just sell the extra parts, and use the money to buy a legit bike with an engine/transmission failure.

turns out dude is basically gonna cut an oblong piece outta the neck that goes around VIN #, and cut out similar shape on the "good" frame, and weld the good # into the hole left by the "bad" vin, and clean it up.

Depends on the welder, I would trust some welders over the original weld.
