Another title issue..car from ct
Purchased a new canvas to replace my 92. This car was just painted so for what i would have paid to fix the damage to my own car it was cheaper to buy this one. The car was purchased by a friend of mine but never driven during his ownership except on and off the trailer. The man who sold him the car never re titled it in Ct so the title is in the previous sellers name. The guy who sold the car to my friend signed the "buyer" spot on the title. If the previous owner whose address is on the title does not cooperate do i have any options that can still get the car in my name?

Odd that we had a similar situation a little while back. I think you may need to contact the CT DMV.

NJ keeps getting more difficult all the time. My 2009 Silverado came out of NY and I bought it from Gateway Toyota in Toms River. NJ dmv would not take the dealer paperwork saying they didn't think the seller's signature looked legit. I think they got the truck at auction or in a multi car deal. I drove for 2-1/2 months on the temp tag and had the dealer give me a letter saying they were working on the paperwork in case I got pulled over. They went back to the dealer in NY where they got the truck and had the salesman sign a notarized letter saying he witnessed the owner sign the title. The owner would not cooperate and sign a notarized letter for some reason. Gateway finally went through a service in NJ that was able to get it titled in my name. I'll see if I can find the service but that title is pretty screwed up now so a duplicate title from CT might be your only option if the original seller will cooperate. After what I went through, I wouldn't mess around with it.
I think Gateway went through NJ CAR but I'm not sure if individuals can use it.

It's probably worth a call to them to see what they say.

After some digging around online i was able to find the previous owner who signed the title on facebook. Took him about 3 weeks before he saw my message. we went back and forth about the car and how it was sold 3 years ago. He agreed that after the holidays are over he will go to the dmv to get a bill of sale and get it notorized. The only issue now is he says the does not have an old registration. Is that something the DMV would have on record?

After 2 trips to Ct and standing in line for 6 hrs with the previous owner we were able to re register the car. Following the procedure on the nj dmv site i was able to get the title this morning.

It all depends on the location of the DMV. I learned this when I picked up my old Formula in the middle of no where NY. Glad it's titled and officially yours, looks amazing.
