I’m checking Facebook and this comes up from a local deals group.
Oh god it’s glorious. Major problem; Ohio absolutely does not accept vehicle transfers based on a bill of sale. There also is no way for anyone but the last person that had the title issued in their name to get a reissued or replacement title. That makes this more or less yard art here. That makes me sad.
I’m betting the guy either bought a property at auction that included anything left of the property, or he inherited it and doesn’t think it’s worth the legal hassle of getting the paperwork sorted. There’s always the possibility it’s stolen but given what it is I doubt that.
There used to be a work around based on getting it titled/registered by someone in another state that will issue a replacement title and getting that title recognized in Ohio, but I’m not sure if that loophole has been closed.
I have reached out for information but expect to be berated for wasting his time by doing anything more than showing up with cash and a car dolly.

I just noticed the tags are from Washington. What are the Washington rules on replacement titles??

Yay, an actual post to look at. That would be a great deal. Racecars don’t need titles.

Interesting idea, but I don’t have a track close enough to make it worthwhile. If any Oppos see this and like the idea I can try to snag it and hold it for them for a few days

Dunno if this would work, but might be something to look in to, near the bottom it talks about sales with no title

Is that was near me I’d go get it today. Id gladly give up my spot in the garage just to have this sit in my cars spot.

I’ve sent the owner a message in hopes of beating the scrappers. At $100 I can take a shot and hope I can get paperwork sorted.
