New titles for cars without titles

[ply33]

I am taking the liberty of reposting this to a new thread. It appeared today in a rather stale thread about license plates. Since it does not deal directly with license plates and covers an important topic, I felt it deserved a thread of its own. - Tod<p>At 11-11-2001 09:23 AM Unregistered User Pat Childers posted:<blockquote>Because I'm an old car buff myself, I don't believe that I need to tell most of the members of AACA that the laws in most states in the United States make it quite difficult, if not impossible, to re-title old cars that no longer have titles.

In Ontario Canada all we require is a bill of sale and get and Affidavit sworn and pay the fee and we have a new ownership, this is the same setup as making a home built trailer, the vin# is what everyou want to stamp it, and use the bills ie the steel, tires, wood etc as the bill of sale.

Pennsylvania forces you to use a company like Broadway title in Alabama.

NJ law allows for a title by posting a bond and advertising in a major newpaper. The total cost is equivalent to the title services and it 100% legal.

Contact the NJ title divison for more information.

i think that making it easier to obtain titles is a great idea.instead of destroying old cars which helps no one.the scrap value is very little.the states could easily charge a fee.$100 or less.before everyone goes oh thats too much think what you spend to take the family out to eat[enuff said on that]the title companies would make a little money.now where the big money is.the repair of these cars is a real boast to the economy.face it those $900 coker tires and rims[look good on my desoto] helped the coker company keep people employed.
