texasz Posted April 12, 2004 Share #13 Posted April 12, 2004 Originally posted by Daniel Although I would prefer a title also you may be making things hard on yourself. You can't be the only one that ever wanted to sell an old car from Ga. If it 's legal where you are then you're good. Remember that state to state flip will most likely include some sort of tax at each state. You may not like it but as long as Ga. does that may be the best you could hope for. Tax yes but consider this...what it the sale price was only $1...how much tax are we talking about?

hls30.com Posted April 12, 2004 Author Share #14 Posted April 12, 2004 TexasZ, you make me proud to have been born in Texas-College Station! Every Bill of Sale I have ever written-and there have been many-have the words "One Dollar and other valuable consideration" on the purchase price line!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-76601 Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ManyZs Posted April 12, 2004 Share #15 Posted April 12, 2004 VA won't allow you to "sell" a car for a dollar, guess they got tired of not getting their little bit of sales tax, or at least that's the way it used to be. Will, I may be buying a GA car without a title, let's hope that VA will let me get one with just a bill of sale. We can't sell a car without a title, no matter how old it is, it's gotta have a title.

hls30.com Posted April 12, 2004 Author Share #16 Posted April 12, 2004 2ManyZs that is strange, I sold a 1983 280ZX 2+2 last year to a man in Virginia using a bill of sale, and I know for a fact he got a Virginia title for the car! I'll try to get ahold of him, find out what he did, and let you know.Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-76616 Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ManyZs Posted April 12, 2004 Share #17 Posted April 12, 2004 What I meant was, a car sold in VA must have a title to be sold or re-registered, I've never tried to get one with just a bill of sale so I don't know if they will give me any grief or not. Hope not, but then, it isn't really important anyways since the car won't be driven on the street anyways.:cheeky: Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-76624 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashNBurn Posted April 26, 2004 Share #18 Posted April 26, 2004 So did anyone ever figure out what to do? I'm in the same situation as y'all. I'm buying a 1973 240Z from a guy in North Carolina. The car doesn't have a title, which, as far as I know, is required for registration and a tag. I live in Georgia and plan to drive this daily, and am totally unsure of what to do. A friend of mine, who's father is a lawyer, bought a 1975 Porsche 914 without a title. Instead, he used a Bill of Sale for registration and a tag, if I remember correctly. Does anyone know if the DMV will accept a Bill of Sale for registration, a tag, and obtaining a title? I'm not surprised that a government "service" is so confusing. My father is supposed to have talked to the people at the DMV today, so I will know later tonight. I'll post whatever I know at the first chance I get.Jason Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-78607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hls30.com Posted April 26, 2004 Author Share #19 Posted April 26, 2004 Jason,A bill of sale is all the Georgia DMV requires on a cat that old. You will be legal and fine with that. I just wanted a title for mine in addition to being legal!Will Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-78608 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrashNBurn Posted April 27, 2004 Share #20 Posted April 27, 2004 Will,Thanks for the info! This morning, my dad told me pretty much the same thing, and that a title isn't required. I just can't sell the car....not that I ever will. 4 days until I finally get my Z. YEAH! :classic:Jason Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/11185-getting-a-title-with-a-bill-of-sale/?page=2#findComment-78745 Share on other sites More sharing options...
