Cannot use "title" in ebay search....use historical vehicle documents..... I would not use ebay...a friend found a document for his 54 pickup...they sent him a copy.... Do a google search it will cover more territory...
I think you need to find out from the Belgium authorities, who, rightly, might be sadly distracted right now, EXACTLY what you need regarding documentation. Then, the HAMB can help you find that. Until you know just what you need, we're all just fumbling in the dark from long distance.
It might come down to buying a "car" (or more accutately, a data plate/vin numbers and papers) from the States. It might not cost too much to find these items from a totally rusted out junk car. Then you "import" your car, as with any other American car.
