Default Legal advice. Possible fraud.

Sold a car awhile back. Car left on a truck and went into storage until buyer could arrange for final delivery. Storage was with the buyer's friend. Car sat for many months and then was moved to another site for storage with a second person. This second person allegedly wound up selling the car to someone else without permission of the original buyer.

So:

1. Buyer never followed through on moving the car into his physical possession.
2. Storage fees added up, unpaid thus far.
3. Second person to store car allegedly sold the car without notifying person I sold it to.
4. My buyer never came to get the title, which I still have with the original bill of sale. Copies furnished to buyer at time of sale and again this week.
5. My buyer is now trying to locate car and take possession. He called police where car was last stored and basically got nowhere. I advised buyer to seek legal counsel and proceed that way, maybe a private detective who specializes in collector car situations.

Any advice?

I have no skin in the game as I was paid in full at time of sale. I would like to see this resolved but I am not particularly confident of that happening.
