Vehicle title and Registration
 

I went to a guys junk yard and picked up a Crx that had some slight front end damage to it...but the damn car was drivable and actually drove really good...He didnt charge me for it just basically said if you come get it you can have it...So I picked it up..the guy says it had been there for over 5 yrs...Someone had it there to have front end fixed but never came back to fix it or get it..Im in the proceess of fixing it but not sure if im going to be able to put tags on it without title...Guy did give me a bill of sale though....Where do I go from here... ???

Talk to your local DMV, it varies state to state.

Beware most of the title companies out there.. they can only help in some states, and mostly '88 or older cars only.

how long ago did you turn in the lost title form... I got my car registered in WA a months weeks back and it took FOREVER for them to mail me my title, and that was with me having all proper documentation, so maybe give it some more time, but then again i dont know how long you've been waiting up until this point.

Form was done back in October...I check the bank to see if they cashed my check and the money is gone..but no new title...And I dont know if they will give me tags and reg without title..

juat go to the dmv and tell them that you bought a car and only have the bill of sale. if they cant register it they might be able to tell you who it is registered to.

That sounds about like how it's done here in NC. Claim 1.5 months, it usually takes as long as they feel like keeping you waiting.

that happened on my del sol, i lost the title and it took me about a year to get one, ---- i had to bend rules, plead my case with about 3 or 4 different banks.. it was horrible.. the main reason was because the title had a lien on it and was never released. The the bank that owned the lien was sold a couple of times and renamed a couple of times... POS time that was in my life.
