Could you build this?
Partial The VIN lookup and diagram viewer UI is simple, but the core value is licensed OEM parts catalogue data that a builder can't obtain by coding alone.
What it would actually take: The front end is a standard searchable catalogue with an embeddable widget and a paid API tier. The hard part is acquiring accurate OEM part numbers, VIN decoding mappings, and diagrams, which typically requires licensing agreements with manufacturers or aggregators and ongoing data maintenance.
