Bought vehicle with no title in Mass?

Posted: Sat Feb 16, 2008 4:13 am

I bought a vehicle with no title from a person who bought it for parts from the previous owner and lost the title during his move but never transferred it into his name and lost all contact information. I have a couple addresses for the previous owner but I've tried to mail a letter to each and no reply. So I'm wondering what I can do with the vehicles old title number, his drivers license number, registration number and VIN number of the vehicle to contact the owner for a title in my name as I'm trying to get it on the road.

THIS WILL TELL YOU IF THE THE CAR MATCHES THE VIN...

Use Tool Web-based decoding of vehicle identification numbers (VIN's). Identifies the year of construction, manufacturer and more.

AnalogX VIN View is a free online VIN decoder that allows you to see the information about your vehicle that it contains. VIN View supports decoding of any vehicle identification number that was issued after 1978, which is when ISO 3779 was established to make a uniform way to track vehicles. If you have a car you would like to lookup prior to 1978, I would recommend going to Auto Insurance Tips, they have one of the more comprehensive listings of VIN's plus some additional related information.
Operation is simple, enter the VIN number (17 characters, A thru Z and 0 thru 9) and click decode. On the decode page you'll see your VIN again and the position of each character, then on the bottom portion you'll see what position and characters map to what information. As more information becomes available, more details about the vehicle will be displayed (such as the model, engine size, options, etc), please be patient!
VIN's are normally located in several locations on a car, but the most common places are in the door frame of the front doors, on engine itself, around the steering wheel, or on the dash near the window. If you can't find it in any of those areas, then don't ask me because I certainly don't know! Smile

Either call the dealership for the car manufacturer and ask them, or search online for a site dedicated to your particular vehicle (or check the above mentioned site).

(CRITICAL INCIDENT DOCUMENTATION SERVICE) WHERE I UTILIZE MY TALENT FOR GATHERING & UTILIZING FORENSIC INTELLIGENCE An on-site record retriver is a person who physically visits government agencies - such as a courthouse or recorder’s office - to search specific requested categories of public records. Usually, the purpose is to obtain documentation for legal compliance (e.g., incorporations), for lending, for hiring, and for litigation - basically for verifying or finding. The retriever or his/her personnel go directly to the agency to “look up” the information you requested or do a name search. Retrievers do not review or interpret the results or issue reports in the sense that investigators do, but rather return existing documents as the results of the searches. These folks may alos be known as Document Retrievers or Abstractors. In most states, Abstractors perform services commonly associated with real estate title and ownership records.
