Re: Reproduction Documentation
Wow, I never thought about planting bogus previous owners with phone numbers and a pretty little story to go with them in order to sell a high priced car. If that is the case, you could always ask them to put their history on a piece of paper and get it notarized by a neutral party lawyer. This should bluff out even the best poker players and most likely make them run for the hills.
Anything and everything is possible. It is kind of sad to say the least.
I guess we are spoiled up here in Ontario. When you sell a car, the Ministry of Transportation (your equiveleant of the D.O.T.) issues the seller a printed Sellers Kit that serves two real purposes. One is it documents if the vehicle has any liens against it but more importantly for research purposes, it docuemts all of the previous owners of that vehicle from 1973. This ownership documentation cannot be altered. It is based on the ownership history from 1973, kept by the M.T.O. It should be mentioned that a prospective buyer can also request this package as well.
For the members information, anybody/anywhere can request this information from the Ontario Ministry of Transportation for any car that was owned by a private owner or business in the province of Ontario. The cost is ONLY $20. Could be the best twenty bucks you have ever spent!
If wanted, I could supply the contact information. Once again, this list of previous owners could be the breaking straw for a lot of deals, both past and present.
It is pretty much fool proof.
