RE Tiny and Nifty 50's replys... I have talked to the tag people. Went by there and talked with the head person. Showed them a pic of the title. There is no problem with the title. It is based on the serial number door post plate, which is missing. I also spoke with the Law Enforcement officer in Panama City where inspection is done for vehicles brought in to the country. My tag person recommended him. He and she both say because the plate is missing there is no way to tie the truck with the title, they call it an orphan truck.
I went on line and ordered a repro plate. Mostly to see what it looks like. I suppose I could emboss the serial number on the plate and attach and try to get it tranfered. But quite frankly that bothers me. Seems like a grey area.
There is enough stuff for the price I think I can get my money back out of it if the title transfer falls apart so I may do this anyway. And as a last resort part it out.
Also Alabama and Georgia, which I'm close to, are both non title states and I could probably sell the truck whole there. So I have options I guess. Of course the whole reason for doing this is to get a bolt of my own. I never thought it would be this much hassle. :hammering:
Thanks for the replies...
