Texas DMV Records
Does anyone know off hand how long Texas keeps records of vehicle transfers and registration in Texas?

Re: Texas DMV Records
Not sure what the time frame is today, but 12 years , or so ago, I was able to get docs on my 69 COPO back to the 70's - 80's. Lots of states have abandoned the early years I believe.

Re: Texas DMV Records
TDMV can go all the way back to the original owner providing the car has been licensed and titled the entire time. I know as we just recently did it on a certain muscle car and even got the selling dealer. However, like any state you better have a damn good reason for asking and you sign a document that puts your balls in a vise if you give them the wrong answer. Just saying....

Re: Texas DMV Records
Thanks Rick. The car in question is a 64 Max Wedge factory lightweight. It wasn't licensed in TX past 1980. Any chance they still have docs?
