Do you transfer an R title the same as a regular title? Does it take longer? Can anyone fill me in on the process? ---

if it’s been reconstructed and passed inspection I believe the process is the same. I really don’t see why the process would be different regardless because you are just transferring the title and assuming the title is branded correctly it should just be a matter of signing it and sending the paperwork to the state to get it in the buyers name. ---

A R title happens for a bunch of different reasons, not all of them are an accident. I don’t see why there would be an issue with transferring it. My Cavalier has an R title and that’s just because it was a reposession and original title had a lien on it. ---

It is the same to transfer as a regular title. You are thinking of applying for an R title when only having a Salvage certificate. ---

THanks for all the replies. I have to double check with the seller, but I am pretty sure he said he had an R-title. From what you all have said, an R title has already gone through the rigorous process and the title will transfer regularly with little problem, however the bike is not inspected at the present time. ---

I got all the paperwork on it and it was a funny read. the ex-wife got like $6500 for the little peon then soon after like 2 years in jail… haha ---

Why not sell the neon and get a cheap LT1 for a track toy?? wouldnt mind that, but thats taking a quick car and making it fast. I’d much rather take a pos eco car and make it run 13’s to 12’s. as it sits now, if i stripped it, it’ll probably run mid 14’s maybe low 14’s with slicks with me driving. probably break into the 13’s with a more experienced track driver. but this is getting off topic from the R-title topic… pm me or get me on aim if you wanna talk about it ---

Me and a guy that I work with, do R title cars. We just take them down to huffmans, and they do it all!! They charge for it of course, but much much better than dealing with all that paper work, and inspections. They give all the papers right there with inspection stickers.
