So, in the states that permit transfer by bill of sale, how do they know the vendor owns the vehicle? Do they rely on the registration as is done here? If not, it would seem fairly easy to circumvent the issue by transferring a vehicle between a few people and back to the person who wants the

Yeah except to do that you need to get the owner's consent on that form, but getting a title report is only $6.  That dmv.com site is a private company, they want $15 to run a report which seems like it might include the lienholder info.  I'll see if my cuz can dig it up, if not I'll get a

Have you got a bill of sale? With that and Vermont you should be able to wash the title. However, I’m wondering how they avoid cars that have liens on them, that is, do they check the VIN with a source that would have information like this, such as the state where the transaction took place?
