vin and title
Bummer, people still find ways to manipulate the system to their own advantages which sucks.
luckily the system worked for me when I had to get a title for my duster.
Got it from a guy who said " I have to get the title from the guy I bought the car from still, so how about you take the car and give me half the money and when I get the title to you....you can give me the rest of the money".
I thought...sure ,of course the guy will get me the title if he wants the rest of his money.
then a few days went by, then weeks, stopped answering my phone calls to even give me excuses any more, then his mom started getting sick of hearing the phone ring when I called for him and started making excuses for him.....finally after over a month I had had enough and decided to take care of it on my own.
got ahold of secretary of state and they told me that there was no way to go about it and that I would have to get in contact with the last registered owner to have them give me a title.....I then said I did not know the last registered owner......and they aswell as the police said they were unable to divulge such information......so I was pretty much screwed from that angle.
THEN I got ahold of the local sheriff who just happened to be a mopar fan and he told me how to go about it .....and it was a walk in the park......this has been almost 3 years ago now....so I am not sure what all forms are still obtainable.
