Are car dealerships supposed to have titles when you buy a car from them? I bought a car from a car dealership, and my 30 day temporary tags are up today, they were supposed to send me a copy of the title so I could go to the bmv and get new tags and what not. Well, I called them and they said they're having trouble getting the title from the leinholder and for me to just go get another temprary tag. I wasn't really sure about this, but shouldn't they already have the title to the car before they sell it? It just makes me think somethings wrong with my car or something. Anyone have any insight? Thanks I did finance the car through the dealership, but should that matter? Them not having the title makes me think they're up to something.

We have a 34 3-window kit car we are putting together. How do we get a title for it? We are told that if you try to title it through DMV a lot of stuff will have to be done to bring it up to 2006 standards. We were told you can purchase 1934 car titles to get around this. It's a kit car and most of the websites I've looked at won't do them. I know it's been done, but not sure how? This is a Street Beast Kit car; they use mustang frames. By the way - advise- don't purchase a kit car from this company ever!!! Bad experience dealing with them.

How can I get a car title back after defaulting on a title loan in Oregon? I took the loan out in Sept of 2005. I paid ontime all the interest charges but was unable to pay the whole thing off. Then the car broke down and I defaulted on the loan. Now they are threatening to sue me after I have paid over 1000.00 for a 400.00 loan on top of offering them the car which they turned down because it does not run. I want to sell the car for parts but can't until I can get the title back. I don't think it is fair that I have paid so much and now they are trying to sue me for another 1200.00 on top of what I have paid already. What can I do? I just needed a little help on bills and now I am more in debt than I started. How can I get a title now to sell the parts off my car or sell the car totally?

How can I transfer a car title in my name? I bought this car off a person from IL that has a CT title. The first owner signed off the title then that person signed it off on the same day as buying the vehicle to whom it looks like some kind of relative. Then that person never drove the vehicle so they signed it off to a friend that could sell it. This means none of them had the title in their name and it is still in a CT title. What they basically did is title jump. I went to the Secretary of State (I live in MI mind you) to have it titled in my name, they said I had to have the first person on the back title the car then sign it off for me to put my name in. That means I'd have to track all the way back for this. I contacted the seller, he said that if he could get a power of attorney signed for me to take custody of the car then everything should run together. He knows the first guy and could get him to title the car in his name, but in IL takes two months to go through. Is this true?
How do you convert a salvage car title to a clean title? I recently purchased a car with a NC salvage title and my insurance company won't insure it for anything more than liability coverage. I spoke to an adjustor for the insurance company and he told me that if I can find a way to get a clean title they will fully insure the car. Even if it comes up in the VIN history report that it formerly had a total loss claim, they will still fully insure the car. The process has been done in the past to defraud people into buying a car that's not worth as much but I'm just trying to work this out so I can insure my car with full coverage.
