I was wondering about the title jumping. I know whenever I transfered a title it always sayd you ahve something like 60 days to transfer it, or it is void.
It is true you have to, but then you have to pay taxes on the car and also pay for a new title.
So a lot of guys don’t do this if they are flipping a car.
From the way you’ve described this I would not automatically assume the car was stolen. I’ve had some good luck calling the DMV, over the phone they are supprizingly helpful. I’d be willing to bet if you called them up, and told them the story they would be able to tell you the best course of action.
PM replyed… hope you feel better.
thanks
