Carfax: 1955 F100 (Last Owner)? Need Title

I need someone to search if possible to search a VIN: I need the ***le, cant do anything without talking to last owner and getting a duplicate of ***le?

Vin: F1CD5A-2**10

Found an old Policy # with a person by the name of Sonya Lewis.
* Called and its been a difficult process thinking im trying to do something wrong!

 

My state didn't start issuing ***les until 1974. I dont know about Florida, but I would check to see if your truck even had one.

Why not go to the DMV and file for a lost ***le?

 

Thanks! They are being ***es about it, saying its a ***le sate!

 

Anyone?

 

Do you have a bill of sale or anything tangible to prove ownership ? Too many times guys come on this forum phishing for a way to obtain a bogus ***le. If it's a legit deal go back to the DMV, remember that even through all the bureucracy, they work for you the taxpayer !!

 

Very correct, Im trying with a bill of sale- However the bill of sale isnt the last registered owner and the State of Florida doesn't recognize a bill of sale unless the authentic owner registered the vehicle under their name.

So here we are, Ive tried going to three different DMV/Tag agency.

 

Edit that post to take the VIN out before someone steals it for a state where it's easy to register one and he needs a clean VIN.

If the truck is original to Florida, you're probably going to have to hire a private investigator, but no guarantee the last owner is even alive, let alone still has a ***le. You may be better off ***ling it in another state, or finding a buddy in a non-***le state and selling it to him and let him get some paperwork on it, then buy it back. Depends on if the VIN is in the Florida computer system or not.

 

Folks - you need to understand that to file for a LOST ***le, the vehicle has to be in YOUR name to start with!!! "I lost the ***le that is in MY name, so I need to get a replacement!"...THIS is where you would apply for a LOST ***le. Same as a "replacement ***le".

A "bill of sale" in a ***le state is useless without an accompaning ***le or other proof of ownership. This is true in all ***le states! If this were not true, what would stop a person from seeing a car somewhere, thinking "Damn, I like that!", and taking a bogus Bill of Sale to the local DMV and saying "Hey, I bought this car and I need a ***le!", and then getting ownership of said vehicle??? THIS is part of why these laws exist. This is also true if you buy a vehicle in a ***le state and go to Georgia (or other no-***le state) to register it. All states refer to the vehicle's seller's state to see what paperwork should accompany it to be able to register it.

As everyone (presumably) knows, CARFAX and any other such service only works with 1981 - newer (17-digit VIN) vehicles.

To the OP - EDIT that VIN out, or you may never be able to do anything with that!!!

 

We have this little thing in the United States called the Privacy Act of 1974. although it gets byp***ed it is still illegal for someone to look up the info you asked for and p*** it on to you. I couldn't even get the correct ***le number for a vehicle I had that came out of Arizona when I had the ***le in my hand that came from Arizona and the ***le number was in the middle of a crease that the po had put in it because he had folded the ***le and carried it in his wallet for some time.

But there are ways to do it, it just takes a lot of research.
Anything come with the car you can use to track the previous registered owner?

Old license plate on or with the truck? Old registration slip in the glove box or over the visor or in the holder on the steering column. I had one (no ***le) car out here that I was s****ping out because it didn't have a ***le and when I moved things around a stack of papers was in the glove box and right in the big middle of the stack was the ***le to the vehicle. Maybe even old mail or old receipts from about when the truck would have been driven last. It would be easier to contact someone if you had an old registration or other info out of the truck and ask if they had owned the truck at one time and if they might still have the ***le or if they remember who they sold it to.

 

You can still go to the DMV in Missouri and search for a vehicle history on a vehicle. Last time I did it it cost me $3.60. Sometimes you can go to the cop shop and get someone to run a vin for you. It helps if you are trying to see if it is stolen before you buy it.


That said I have never tried to find out who used to own a vehicle in Florida.

CRX if you got her truck she will wup your *** !!

 

There a number of things wrong here, beyond publishing someones name who you had no business publishing. Your DMV are not being "***es", they're telling you that with no paperwork, you can't get a ***le.

Instead of presenting an at***ude at the DMV, smile and find out what you need to do to obtain ***le, if it's possible. Every state is different, what works here in Michigan won't work in Florida. You may, or may not, be able to ***le the truck, I'd find out straight away if I could before I spent any amount of $$ on the project. You may find you've built it for someone else, especially since you published the vehicle number...
