Not quite....like I said before, if I had title to your car would I really be the owner? . It's like stealing something....having it doesn't mean it's yours. . To try your "idea" here, if rightful ownership is later in question, your documents from when you obtained the title are presented and you'd better have the right answers. . If obtained illegally you're trouble for not only theft but false documents etc. ~ Pete
[/ QUOTE ] I get what you're saying...I guess what I'm trying to do is figure out how to get/save a car I know of. Here's the deal; this car is sitting in the back of a 'body shop', no title, hasn't been reg. for better than 20yrs. Had the thing bought(money down, no, nothing in writing
), the shop owner did some kind of dealing with friends of his who happened to be Hells Angels members, there were a few arrests reported in the paper,some pretty gnarly stuff. Turns out it was the 'friends',and ever since we haven't been able to contact the guy. The car is still there but I fear the future isn't bright for it. I know of people who've gotten bonded titles on 'abandoned' vehicles that were left on private property so I'm sure it's possible, just like to find a way that's legal,yet,'under the radar'. This car is way spec. enuf to save.The trick here is there's no one to contest it (I don't think!).
