When I saw the free AutoCheck work around posted last time I knew that there were more to be found. I did some Googling and I found a nice work around. This is my first new topic EVER on FatWallet and I hope that it helps many people.
What to do...
1) http://www.driversworld.com/CarDetails.aspx?VIN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Visit the above link, but substitute the X's for the VIN number that you are looking up.
2) Scroll down the page and click on the image that says "Free AutoCheck report!" .

DO NOT POST VINs is because its easy pickin' for scammers and they will take them up and pass them off as real VINs on eBay, craigslist you name it, so it would be best to keep requests to a pm.

Shame it could of saved me a ton! Still working, sort of. Go to AutoCheck.com directly though. Entering a valid VIN just brings up that it found the vin, as well as a number of "records", along with minor descriptive information for the car. That's all folks.

Here is an updated link that works: http://www.carthink.net/auto_check/AutoCheck.php?VIN=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&SID=5021379 Replace the XXX with your VIN number.

Sweet, thanks! Had a couple of cars I wanted to check.
New link is also baked, you guys need to realize that carfax runs their business with an iron fist. Anytime you post these sites they will be destroyed with ruthless ability within minutes.

In all honesty how would you expect these to last when posting them here? As soon as there posted someone from carfax or experian will kill the links and that will be that. The only way they will stay is if you keep it to yourself!
