Oregon DMV and my "crushed" dart

That really sucks ! I hate that! I hope you get it straightened out that's a sweet dart! Im a little worried about that too when the time comes to title my challenger, the title i got was a jumped title, the guy I bought it off of bought it in like 2001 and never had it put in his name. I did some research and the previous owner died in 2004 so there is no getting a bill of sale or anything like that from him I just wonder if the dmv will notice that? Do they look at the dates and if the owners still alive ? I guess I could just sign my name and date it for 2001 but I don't like being dishonest. My plan was to just reach out and get a bill of sale from the man who's name is on the title but thats not gonna happen. So I'm not sure how im gonna do it.
Why didn’t you title it when you first bought it. That’s the first thing that I do when I buy a car. I’m sure that there are stories out there where people have spent thousands of dollars on restoring cars only to find out that they don’t own them.
