Default Re: Legal Ownership of a Car

Exactly. Same thing hapened to me about 25 years ago. My neighbors moved out and abandoned their 72 Vega in front of my house (along with a 6-foot tall marijuana plant on their back porch...and to think, this guy was a minister!) It sat there for 8 months after they moved away and I finally contacted motor vehicle and they recommended that I apply for ownership as an abandoned vehicle and keep it, otherwise I would have to pay for someone to tow it away from my property. I did and ended up getting full legal title to the car in about two weeks.

It worked out well because I later traded it for a 1971 Cuda Convertible!
