The downloadable form still doesn't have WI listed and that is what I had noticed. I do see the site itself has it listed. I had my dates wrong on when we used them. Time flies when your having fun I guess.  He used them about the same time you did. All I know is that after he called Broadway and they mailed the application form and instructions to him in Wisconsin nothing was said about it not working. Perhaps we were the last straw so to speak as WI is the last state mentioned now.

At this point it is water under the bridge.....my main point is that lost titles and Wisconsin DMV don't mix.

 You might ask moparstuart. He owns a salvage/tow yard and lives/works in MO.

Well thanks but I really don't want toa ask someone for that kind of favor when I really don't even know them.

      They'll charge you a fee no doubt. No matter where you go. Assuming it's possible in your state to do what I did.

I kind of figured someone would want some $$$$$$ along the way. I just want a legal title. Simple problem but I am sure there is going to be alot of BS untill I get the title.

[troy.70R/T]

Well I just got off the phone with the MO DMV and they told me that the only way they can issue a title is if a Judge issues a declaratory Judgement saying that the car is mine. I will need a lawyer for this process as well. However I must first have the police dept run a check to make sure the car is not stolen. Also It is illegal in the state of MO to skip an owner. which means that I would not be able to technically skip the guy that I bought the car from. Sounds like I may be in for alot of headache.

Time for I.T.S.

I tried to call them but kept getting a busy signal. I also tried broadway title but only got a machine. I am going to try calling the guy I bought it from again and see if he can remember the womans name. so I can look for her phone number again. BTW everytime I ever called Jeff city the DMV workers all seem to be women and no matter how nice you are to them they are just B*!#$%y with me.

It's Good Friday.

A lot of places are closed today.

I spent my day off cutting grass.

I never talked to anybody at ITS, I just filled out the forms and mailed them to them with my $$$

I did have to have the little chick at my bank notorize one of the forms.

Maybe they do things differently now? 

[troy.70R/T]

That might be why I could not get a hold of anyone. I hope it it as simple as it sounds. I would really hate to part out an 68 R/T.          I know, I know I should be shot for even saying that.    I did not have time to go to the police dept today to have them run the Vin. To be honest I wanted to try a little harder at finding the titled owner of the car first.

[troy.70R/T]

Well I finally got to talk to someone at ITS. They told me they could get me a MO title but it would cost me $770.00. So far they are sending me some paper work to fill out (no charge) I will probably call them with more questions once I get the paper work. How ever a new development is that I found the phone number for the woman who is on the bill of sale that I got from the guy that I bought the car from. I have not spoken to her yet but I know that it was the right number because the answering machine said her name.
     I have talked to the Missouri DMV several times and it does not seem to expensive (or overly complicated) to get a duplicate title for the car. However the last registered owner would need to be the one to do this. So here is the rest of the story. The guy I bought the car from felt that it was being sold due to a possible divorce. He said that there was an ad in the paper for the car and that is how he found it. However I am not sure if calling the woman would bring up a sore subject??? So I really don't know if she would want to help me. I have and would do as much of the paper work and phone calls as the state will allow me to do in order to make it easier on the woman. I also thought about offering her $300.00 for her trouble. If I pay her $300.00 and about another 100.00 in paper work costs that would still leave me with $370.00 less than ITS.   My real worry is that this will take time to get everything in order and may give the woman time to talk to someone who tells here that the car is worth much more and that she should take it back cause legally it is still hers. the car was also missing it original engine but the guy I bought it from said that he bought it with a tranny. Original or nr not I don't know and neither did he. The car was sitting in a barn when he went to look at it and I was just wondering if that original motor might still be around the car is also missing the fender tag so theses are two benefits that I could see about getting ahold of this woman. Also Just wondering if in the future if someone was to come around with the original title and I had one from ITS who's would stand up in court??

WOW ! 

Things sure have changed since I got my title from them in '06 

I'm betting the laws are changing, loopholes closing.

[troy.70R/T]

I am not really worried about the $770.00 I just want to be 100 percent sure I have a rock solid Legal title. The investment down the road is worth far more than the $770.00

[ACUDANUT]

 I'll tell you what. Give me half that and I will get you a title.

[troy.70R/T]

I will definantly talk to you about that if I need to Right now I found a woman who used to work for a car dealership getting titles for them. She is also supposed to be able to still get me the names of all the owners that ever owned the car.  She says she can do it for about $150.00  I hope she can. If not I will let you know CUDANUT.   And thanks for the offer.

I've used Broadway and ITS in the past. Both worked fine, but at the time, ITS was both cheaper, and way faster.

[troy.70R/T]

Well I talked to ITS again today and they told me that I would get a Vermont title for the car with my name and address on it. Well I live in Missouri, but they say I can either send away for Vermont plates every year or that I can get a Missouri title with the Vermont title. So my question is this. For all of you who have used ITS did you get a Vermont title and then change it over to your state?  The title lady that is helping me out says that I can get a Kansas title with just a bill of sale in her name then shee "sells" the car to me and I get a MO title. However the car has to have a motor in it and be running from what she tells me. She also says that the car will be titled as an antique.   I really don't want that I just want a regular title.

Along with the Vermont title, you should get notarized paperwork showing that
you purchased the car. You can then take that paperwork to your DMV and
apply for a title in your state. It works the same as if you went to Vermont,
and purchased a car personally.

[troy.70R/T]

Will the noterized paper work come from the title company? I have to send the title company the bill of sale that I got from the guy I bought the car from. So far I am leaning toward going with ITS for the $770.00

[jeryst]

When I used ITS (about 4 years ago), I sent them the bill of sale from the guy I bought the car from.
They sent me back a notarized bill of sale and a singed title from Alabama.
I then took the bill of sale and title to my DMV, and applied for a PA title.

It only cost me about $200, though. Prices sure have gone up!

[troy.70R/T]

Thanks for the reply jeryst at least I know thats how it has always worked. I plan to bite the bullet in the next week and send the $$$$$.
