Can I get the new title for my car in Hawaii w/ the old title I just paid off in CA? I have just paid off all the car loan. I checked the loan balance at the loan company and they confermed the loan balance is $0. Now, they are signing and sending the tile to me by mail. This is good. By the way, I am moving to Hawaii w/ this car soon. However, I am not sure if I could receive the new title from CA-DMV before moving date. I was wondering if it's possible for me to bring the old title ,which is coming from the loan company, to Hawaii DMV directory after moving and get the new title from Hawaii DMV. The title arrived from the loan company to me yesterday. I see the loan company's signature at the bottom-right area of the certificate of title. This field says "Signature releasea interest in vehicle." Will Hawaii DMV accept it as the evidence of 100% of my ownership of this vehicle?

Old car Vehicle Title? I'm interested in buying used car from owner but i've been unfortunate lately -- i've been coming across people whose name does not match the name on the title. They always claim that they had the title signed by the owner, but i have no way of proving if its the truth. For example, i tried to buy a 1986 pickup truck (Value less than 800) and i ask the guy if he's the owner and he said yes, and then i asked if he's name matches the name on the title and then he said no. He said the title was signed by the last owner. In order words, after i pay him he will give me a title that's not in his name, but legally signed by owner. I'm asking you for advise here because i've come across a dealer in the same scenerio. They say their business is legal. And the car in question is not in their name, but the title is signed by the previous owner. Is it really legal? How can i protect myself from future problems of purchasing a stolen car. Can i take such title to DMV and get it titled? advise

Can I get my old car back- since the company does not have the title? I traded in my car in June to lease a car. I did not have the title for my car because i still owed on it. After purchasing the car the car dealer has been calling me because the lien holder did not have the title. They have not been able to get a title for the vehicle.

I am technically a dependent but want to donate a car (title in my name): is the deduction possible? My old car is basically on its last legs; it is probably worth $1k-$1.5k and I would probably have an easier time donating it than selling it because of the heavy engine work required. My question is: am I able to receive any sort of credit/deduction from the donation? Technically I am a dependent of my mother, who lives in Tennessee, until I finish school next year. Would she be able to get the deduction (she itemizes) if I donate it here in Virginia (the title is in my name)? Thanks
How can i change over the title of an out-of-state car, if the car is totaled in an accident? We brought the car to a new state, signed the back of the old title, then the car was involved in an accident and totaled and we have already gotten a total loss check for it. Now the insurance company says we need to change the title to be titled in the new state. Is this possible? The form says it must be inspected to get the title, but if we no longer have the car how can this work? I should have explained: the insurance company already has the title. they are telling me they will send it back to me so i can get it retitiled in the new state. The car was just changing ownership within a family, but to a new state, so the back was signed by the new owner. then the acciedent happened. we got an insurance check already, and now they are saying it has to be retitiled in the new state. the insurance company is sending the title back to us to try to get the dmv to change the title to this state. The car is probably in a salvage yard somewhere, but the last we saw of it was over three weeks ago.
