I’m in Michigan and they would not let me keep the original title from a 1973 javelin!

That’s crazy, I’m in Michigan also and they let me keep the above title. Must be there is no rule that they have to keep it, probably up to individual agent??

----That's kind of what I thought, Vern, but it's been quite awhile since I had a title that I wanted to keep. I do think they stamp the title they give back to you with something, but can't remember what......Bill S

Just for giggles, I dug out my 1956 original title and other than the seller filling out his part of the transaction and the same for me as buyer, there’s nothing the state did to the title upon releasing it to me.

This transaction was several years ago before the pandemic, so that didn’t influence anything.

As we suspected, there’s likely no DMV policy and worth asking the agent for it if you want to keep it. In my case it’s a neat piece as there’s quite a bit of other paperwork, including the original Certificate of Origination from the manufacturer.
