Re: Title Question
[ QUOTE ]
Thanks guys. Maybe I wasn't clear...I am attempting to buy a car that has an open title in the previous owner's name and will definitely be titling it in my name. My problem is that I will have a title in one peron's name and a receipt in another's name. That will not fly at the DMV up here...How do you guy's get around this?

I think what you need is the original bill of sale for the transaction from the titled owner to the guy you bought it from, and then another bill of sale from the guy you bought it from to you. I think that explains the lack of a title in your seller's name, sufficiently for the DMV. There has to be some chain of ownership on paper, in order to satisfy the DMV title requirements.
