NO TITLE NO PROBLEM !

[superdave008]

Trying to get a title for your Bradley?

This can be a nightmare. But hang on wait a minute...

I recently watched a video on you tube that is a viable option. If you have a printer and some patience and follow through
Your problems could be over ..

Recently I was given an RV camping trailer with no title and went to the Highway patrol and the DMV and after a huge run around.. I decided to look for alternatives. I figured it was worth investing time and money and not being able or willing to jump through all of the hoops Colorado has to offer. (are state is becoming a nightmare as the idiots in charge want to become
a 2nd California)

I started looking for a viable alternative.
Serious about I.D.I.C.. a Catalytic converter replacement here was $3500 but has recently been lowered to $1K about $800 in taxes. more on that another time. Have to look for options.

Back to the story...the R.V. was worth it so I came across a video on You tube , for 1/3 of the cost and the same amount of time Use the "VERMONT DEPT. OF MOTOR VEHICLES."

Good luck!

If anyone comes across this and lives in Minnesota, you can utilize the PS2002-03 (Statement of Facts) to express why you own a vehicle that has no paperwork. I've done this with a moped and my Bradley GT2, the only caveat is that Minnesota can't find the registration in their computer system, so it must be off the road for a considerable amount of time.

If you have a friend or relative in Georgia and the car is over 25 years old, just have them (the Georgia relative or friend) print and send you a bill of sale for the vehicle you have.  The Georgia bill of sale will have a number in the corner that is the vin number for your new title.  You may have to take the vehicle to a state certified auto dealer (in your state) to have a vin number verification form done in before you can get the new title.  Not the same as a vehicle inspection.  Most dealers won't even charge you to do the form especially if you print it out and have all the information available for them.  All they do is verify the number on the car matches the paperwork you have. 

I HIGHLY advise you to give the vin number to your local law enforcement office PRIOR to asking someone to give you a bill of sale for a vin check.  The last thing you want to do is have someone send you a bill of sale for something that was reported stolen at one time or another and not removed from the books.  Anytime I buy an old vehicle with "no title" for "parts" I have our city police run the vin.  They have never charged me, and I tell them I am looking for a parts car but want to make sure it is not stolen.  They always say "good idea".   

I have a couple of cars that came from a "Georgia seller" with new state issued titles.  One thing to note, regardless of the miles on the cars, the new title in my state will have either odometer broken, or exceeds mechanical limits, they will NOT put the actual miles on the new title.  Also you cannot get a title for a Bradley "body" or shell.  The title is for the drive train, not the shell.

Correction to my "older than 25 years".

Titles are required for any 1986 & newer year model motor vehicle, travel trailers, car/tow dollies (weighing 2,001 lbs or more), motorcycles and campers. Titles are also required for any 1963 & newer mobile or manufactured homes.

Titles not required for 1962 or older year model vehicles.

A bill of sale from Georgia will get you a Title in Ohio as long as the vehicle is older than 1986. This most likely applies to most if not all states. A gentleman had a title AND bill of sale from Georgia and presented BOTH to the clerk. This was from an estate sale and the title was NOT signed over to the buyer. ONLY PRESENT THE BILL OF SALE for the 1986 and OLDER car, NOT BOTH. This gentleman did NOT get issued a new title because the estate did not properly endorse the old title because it was NOT needed in Georgia. The estate should have informed the guy about this, and the guy should have done his research before he went to the clerk. If a title is presented, the clerk HAS to use the title.

If anyone has property in Michigan, you can register a trailer here, and the plate stays with the trailer for life of the trailer (or until its sold ...) with only a 1 time fee for licensing it. If you dont have a title for it, just take it to anyplace with a scale, and get a printoff for the weight of the trailer with discription (length, number of axels, ect) and take to Sec of State (DMV).



As per the little bit about catalatic converters, if it is older than 10 years, by Michigan state law you dont have to have one.
