And, yes, they know what year the car was last registered. going back to when the car was new, but if you don't have the latest one that was issued, you have nothing. Then, if you don't register it for a few years, you'd better pray that you can find the LAST one when you go to sell or transfer it, because you can have every reg. is essentially the title, but you get a new one every year, so you end up with a stack of old ones if you don't throw them out. New York is funny with untitled (pre-'73) vehicles.

(I've seen this done a few times with older vehicles that nobody really cared about.)ģ) Have your insurance agent write a bond and apply for a bonded title.Ĭan you get a bonded registration in NY like you can in some states? Slightly illegal, but it works if you don't get caught for forgery. (There used to be a fella on here that would do that for other members for a very small fee but I think he is gone now.)ġ) Have a friend with a shop say it was brought in for repair and abandoned for a year or two, then run an ad in some small time newspaper for three weeks, then apply for a title with a mechanic's lean.Ģ) Have someone sign the original owner's name to a power of attorney and an application to apply for a duplicate of lost registration and transfer of registration to you. Otherwise, probably the simplest thing to do is to sell the car (on paper) to someone in one of the states that will accept a bill of sale and have them register it and sell it back to you. How cantankerous is the original owner? Maybe if you sent him a nice letter, explaining your situation accompanied with the necessary blank forms such as maybe a bill of sale and an application for duplicate of lost registration, or a power of attorney, he might be willing to sign something at home and return it to you. Not that I know anything about NY DMV rules but. Btw-All the parties knew each other for a long time and it was all about friends screwing friends over a few hundred $$ and a 62 Impala that was a pos. Rather then trying to resolve the issue my friend threatened the guy who reclaimed the car and ended up in jail and still lost the car because in reality the guy who sold it to him scammed him. The guy with the title reclaimed the car, came an got it one day and all hell broke loose.

He could never get the title because the guy he bought it from never had the title and lied about really owning. The guy he bought it from still owned the guy money on the car when he sold it to a friend of mine. I know someone who bought a old 62 Impala from a guy who bought it from another guy. The old guy sold the car and can't blame him if he feels his responsibility ended with that sale.Įach state handles things like this differently but if you were in Michigan you would be screwed as the person who has the title could place it in their name anytime they wanted if not already. You need a title to prove ownership and without that you own nothing. In many states the registration means nothing. I guess last resort would be get a out of state title any info will be appreciated thanks. The old owner is going to send the receipt from when he turned the plates in and a letter that he sold the car but he wont put my name on it since he didnt sell me the cardont know if this will help probably not.
