Long story short, I got shafted on the title to my current TC. Previous owner will not return my calls and I can't find him, it's like he disappeared... But anyways...
I'm looking for a Fox body t-bird or Mustang to swap my drivetrain into. If it's a Bird, I literally only need a body and title, if it's a stang, I need it to be bumper-bumper with interior and title.
Cheaper the better, of course I would take a complete car if the price is right. Needs to be within 200 miles of Benton, KY.
Check your state laws on vehicle titles, here in Kansas you can do a "quiet title" for less that $200 and is the route I must do on my 88 TC due yo the same seller issue. Try that first before you decide to strip it.
From what the county clerk has told me, I am SOL without the PO giving me the title.
I would do some research before you give up. That clerk is paid the same whether they deal with your headache or not.

go to the tag office and ask them, if you dont like their answer try another one.
impound lots and junk yards do it every day. you call the sherrifs office and tell them you need to apply for a lost title. they'll check to see if the car is stolen. if it clears a back ground check and was abandoned or not registered for a certain time frame, they will issue a title for you. here its only about $50.
here a lost title has to be applied for by the person whose name it is in
how do impound yards get theirs?
also can try a machnics Lien. shops do it when people do not pay for the repairs and then abandon the car
Well, as a last ditch effort, I called him one more time today and... guess what... HE FUGGIN ANSWERED!
Said we would meet up at the courthouse monday at 11. God I hope he shows, I need this car on the road, my Jeep gets 10mpg and is killing us!
Sweet!!!! let us know what happens!!
glad to hear!
