having major problems with the blue festy...

[kuntry_boi06]

ok here is my 3 day escipade in a nutshell...
after buying my festers i had to acquire a title on the blue one...
this is told was not going to be a problem...HAHAHAHAHAHA, what a laugh. after 30+ phone calls i ended up talkin to the secretary of states office in michigan, which by the way takes about 30 minutes just to get to a real person...

anyways i cant get a title on the blue one unless the towing company in frankfort fills out the paper work(which they repeadetly have refused to do, even though its online...), so i am at my wits in but i dont want to scrap it or nothin cuz its got a near perfect body-bumper and hood and perfect perfect interior with only 94k miles on it...

i was wonder while typing this would it be possible for someone in michigan to get a title on it and then transfer it to me? because since i live in ky they said they cant just let me get a title for it or whatever because of the michigan tags... :idea: oh well i hope things work out and im looking for some suggestions.

Yeah, the garage (towing co.) has to sign a Garageman's Abandoned Vehicle Sales paper via Michigan's DMV, file a notice in their local newspaper in order to sell the vehicle and get a new title to hand over to you. It is a pain on their end because of all the stuff they go through, but I can't understand that if you reliquished the tags back to Michigan why they can't release the title to you? Did you ask them about returning the tags?

Have a spare dash and good title from another car? Swap the dash into that car and title it with that... I don't hink any garage would check under the hood to verify it. Just pull the 2 stickers off the drivers side door panel (on the car itself) and you should be good to go...

Don't ask me how I know.

well i know a guy that owns a towing company would it be legal for him to do all that stuff for me?

the first festy i drove i cracked up and the parts car (a 90 lx) so the daily driver got a "paint job" but we did more than just changed the dash, we cut the VIN off of the firewall from the one i wrecked and souldered it over the 90 lx VIN, changed the stickers and all, yeah the 90 lx now sits in a junkyard

i can talk about it now cause i don't drive it anymore :lol:

no i didnt but im gonna look into that.

also i had an idea that i am NOT going to do, which was paint the blue one red, and swap the plates and just use the insurance card for the red one incase i get pulled over. but i decided it was too risky.

and around here cars are inspected by a sheriff not a garage(which is what happens where you guys live?).
