I'm sorry for commenting late on this topic yet I want to add my over 40 years of experience in the retail auto sales business here in N. Virginia. Titles issued starting in the 1960's have a box for stating the mileage on the odo. as to it being correct/accurate to the "best of the sellers knowledge", ot the mileage shown is in excess of 99,999, all states have a law in regards to odometer tampering with the "intent" to defraud, thus the box for explaining the odometer mileage, titles have 3 reassingments, so a car can be traded amongst dealers before a clear title is issued by DMV, but, each reassignment must have a "federal" mileage statement attached with it, all reassignments and title transfers must agree on mileage. Many years ago if a speedo broke and a new one was purchsed it came with a door jam sticker that told the old mileage with date of replacement, also when restoring a antique car the owner could go to the state police and have a certificate and door jam sticker issued stating the odometer had be adjusted accordingly. The law does not say you cannot adjust a speedo as you want it, it says "intent" for adjusting. I know a man that tapped speedo's for many years here in N.VA. for so many dealers it would take 2 pages to list them, he was eventually caught and went on public television that he was making over $300,000 per year, he was convicted in court on 1 count of tampering and given 5 years, then the IRS took over and he got 20 years and lost everything he had.
