+ | My story. Went to the RMV to inquire about registering my old car I,ve had for forty years. This is what they gave me at the yarmouth RMV. | ||
+ | |||
+ | A copy of a telephone information sheet from 1996. I will copy it here. | ||

+ | PURCHASING AN UNDOCUMENTED VEHICLE | ||
+ | |||
+ | SITUATION: A customer has purchased an old vehicle for whish ther is no title, proof of ownership, or any other record. It was purchased from a farmer who had the vehicle for the past twenty years and never bothere to title or register it, The buyer wants to title and register this vehicle. | ||
+ | |||
+ | SOLUTION: | ||
+ | |||
+ | The SELLER must provide the BUYER with a signed, notarized bill of sale stating the YEAR, MAKE, MODEL, VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER (VIN),SELLING PRICE, AND ODOMETER READING, along with an account of how when and from whom the vehicle was acquired, and the circumstances of where, and to what use the vehicle has been placed during the SELLER's ownership. | ||
+ | |||
+ | In addition, either the SELLER or the BUYER will need to have a "Visual Inspection" (TV-7) completed by a law enforcement agency. At the sme time, they must obtain a "Stolen Vehicle Inquiry Report" from that agency. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Buyer must then forward the SELLER's notarized bill of sale as described above, along with the TV-7, the Stolen Vehicle Inquiry Report from a law enforcement agency, and a completed RMV-1 plus the $50.00 title fee, to Auto Theft. Auto Theft will evaluate the information presented, run a check on the vehicle, and if satisfactory, will direct that a Title be issued and sent to the BUYER. Once the title has been recieved, the BUYER may then register the vehicle. | ||

+ | |||
+ | I am having trouble getting the "Stolen Vehicle Inquiry Report" Since the car is not stolen the cops don't see a need. They told me to do a carfax, but I don't think the RMV will accept that. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Also, If the car is a gift from any member of your immediate family ,you do not have to pay sales tax. And, if you live at the same address or have the same last name the givor does not have to sign. | ||
+ | |||
+ | I will edit this after I have a title in hand | ||
