Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: Title question

In some states, it depends on the year if it requires a title or just
a Bill of Sale to be registered. In my state, any vehicle prior to
1975 does not require a title to be registered. So my 74 Gremlin has a
bill of sale only - the state did not issue me a title, but allowed me
to register the car. As long as I paid the revenue taxes, they were
happy. Do you have a bill of sale for your car? If so, check Texas
registration requirement laws for the title cut off year (i.e. when
did TX begin requiring titles on vehicles?). You might try a title
search if the auto was ever titled or apply for a lost title. Check
with your revenue department about this process. Otherwise, I'll write
you a bill of sale for the state of AL if your vehicle is pre-75.
It'll cost you though...... ....;-) LOL {Joking} ~Lu~
