Depends on what state you are in. It could be a hassle but not
undoable. Here in OK there is a procedure to go thru on cars with no
title. Basically what you are doing is putting a storage lien on it or
repair lien or whatever. You get some paperwork from the state DMV,
fill it out, you have to get a record of the last known owner and send
them a certified letter, publish the date and time of your "auction",
and also post it in another public place. Think it has to be posted in
3 different placed. Anyways, after you do this, you send proof of
mailing, proof of public posting, then proof that you sold the car at
auction (to yourself) in and you get a title in your name. OR, some
states will give you a title from just a bill of sale. In OK if you buy
a car from a state that doesnt give titles on cars over a certain age,
you can get a OK title just from a bill of sale. Then there are title
companies. One is broadway title I think, they charge something like
$350 to get a title. They have a website I do believe.

Merry Christmas Listers,
can any of you tell me what is involved in titling a car bought with a bill
of sale!? Any pitfalls to look out for?
The seller says that it is done often enough that I need not worry and that
I can either do it my self or have a pro do it for a small fee! Is that true
and how small is small!?
The seller bought the car from a dealer in the Midwest who had bought it at
an auction in PA and the sealer lost or misplaced the title since then!!
Is it safe to buy a car on two bills of sale from two different sellers who
are in two corners of the country!?
Any input will be appreciated and thank you all,
Omar.
