John, sorry to hear about your Mom, try someone a little higher up on the food chain with the DMV. Be nice but persistant in that GA. does not have a title for this age vehicle. State that no regristration card exhists as it was not on the road or registered by the last known owner. Most important, don't give up....if some one you are talking to doesn't have the authority to say "yes"...then ask to be sent to someone who does. A notorized bill of sale using the S.C. dmv form worked for me.
Don't give up...stay after it and push it to Columbia if necessary.
