What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Mass

Here's what I believe you'll be charged with:
266/139/A MOTOR VEH VIN, REMOVE/ALTER c266 §139(a) (Effective 7/3/81)
on [DATE OF OFFENSE:] did intentionally and maliciously remove, deface, alter, change, destroy, obliterate or mutilate or cause to be removed or destroyed or in any way defaced, altered, changed, obliterated or mutilated, the identifying number or numbers of a motor vehicle or trailer, in violation of G.L. c.266, §139(a). (PENALTY: state prison not more than 3 years; or not more than $1000 fine; or both; CLERK-MAGISTRATE MUST REPORT CONVICTION TO REGISTRAR OF MOTOR VEHICLES, who shall revoke license for 60 days on first offense, and for 1 year on subsequent offense; c.276, §92A: plus mandatory restitution.)


266/28/F MOTOR VEH, RECEIVE STOLEN c266 §28(a) (Effective 11/3/89)
on [DATE OF OFFENSE:] did buy, receive, possess, conceal or obtain control of a motor vehicle or trailer, the property of [NAME OF VEHICLE OWNER:], knowing or having reason to know the same to have been stolen, in violation of G.L. c.266, §28(a). (PENALTY: state prison not more than 15 years; or jail or house of correction not more than 2½ years; or not more than $15,000 fine (“whenever possible” any fine “shall equal twice the amount of” resulting damages or loss); or both such imprisonment and fine; and mandatory restitution; no continuance with a finding or filing. CLERK-MAGISTRATE MUST REPORT CONVICTION TO REGISTRAR OF MOTOR VEHICLES, who shall revoke license for 1 year upon first offense, and for 5 years upon subsequent offense. District Court has final jurisdiction under G.L. c.218, §26.)

90/23/G NUMBER PLATE VIOLATION TO CONCEAL ID c90 §23
on [DATE OF OFFENSE:], with intent to conceal the identity of a motor vehicle or trailer: (1) did attach or permit to be attached thereto a number plate assigned to another motor vehicle or trailer; or (2) did obscure or permit to be obscured the figures on a number plate attached thereto; or (3) did fail to display thereon the number plate and the register number duly issued therefor, in violation of G.L. c.90, §23. (PENALTY: imprisonment not more than 10 days; or not more than $100; or both.)
But don't panic yet. If you truly have no records, I would wager that you'll get probation only.
