Man, if I wasn't going to be 8 hours minimum away and on the other side of the Sierras, I'd swing by over the weekend, but to swing over that way adds a lot of miles to the trip.

If it sat that long without a non-op, it is a lot of money in fees and what-not to get it back legal. What a shame, because it is a nice truck.

It is a cool truck, a figure its would be around $450.00 to get a title and reg for it here is CA. Going to strip soon so if anyone wants anything off of it or want to make an offer for the whole thing I suggest to come by to check it out.

Someone buy that thing. If it was closer to me I would make an offer. Title would be no problem, son-in law owns a towing company and I could run it thru him and get a title.

Your right, got a friend that has a towing company and he said getting a title for him is easy to do.

Going to start pulling parts off of it this weekend, now is the time to but the whole truck if someone needs it complete.

Dammit. All I'd need is a notarized bill of sale from you with a statement of the title expense and why you sold it, $126 court fee with a sworn statement, and $49 at the tag office I'd have a clean green title and current tag good for a year.

I know what you mean about the expense. That's why I drove that Kia out of So Cali to OK. It was going to be over $780 to get it tagged in Cali, and that wasn't including the smog inspection that was required, so close $900 said and done. It's here in OK now and runs just fine.

In reality, I could probably even have the license plate for it before I left OK to go get it. But as usual....

Anyone else in OK want it, get with me and I"ll tell you haow to do it and email you the court packet to get it started.
