However, if the pink slip is lost a fee will be applied to recover another copy. The time it'll take will be of huge inconvenience. Bill of sale is just as good as a receipt to the prospective buyer. What happen to the pink slip? Does the other owner still have it? Does the other owner live in CAlifornia? <br /><b>Seller</b>: Well basically here is what happened.<br />My uncle got the car in apple valley a few years back.<br />he got it from an impound yard without a pink slip or anything.<br />just a bill of sale from the dude who owned the yard. and he never registered it in his name.<br />so when i purchased it from him he simply wrote me a new bill of sale with the impound guy's name on it saying it was sold to me. so when i took it into the pomona DMV the lady said for me to get a new pink slip, new liscense plates, and to get it put in my name would cost around $412.<br />And yes the cars previous owner lives in Ca.<br />i can give you that bill of sale and you can do what you want with it.<br />i needed it gone yeasterday and i do not want to deal with any of the bullshit that goes along with selling a car.<br />so just make me an offer so it can get out of my damn driveway.<br />Thanks. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>BCINGUU</b> <br /><small>Member # 2397</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,21,13,48,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> $500 if you're feeling generous.<br /><br />You can get clean title, clean body, good condition titled fox mustangs all day long for $1200. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>asskickn88</b> <br /><small>Member # 4957</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,21,14,5,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I'd be careful with this one. I got an 88 GT off ebay a few years ago. I drove 7 hours to pick it up and when I got there he didn't have a title for the car.... oops, forgot to mention that before I got there. He gave me the paperwork for a lost title, that was the best we could work out. When I got home and went to DMV I found out he never finished putting it in his name and I had to get a bill of sale from one owner to him to finish it...... that guy was in iraq and couldn't sign the paper. I ended up getting it taken care of but it was a pain in the ass, you could be in for worse unless your very careful. Don't let the fact that you really want the car screw up rational thought, there will be other cars that are good deals out there. If you can get it cheap enough the paperwork wont matter as much, you could always part it out to make your money back. Also remember, the 85 auto cars were CFI injection, not carbed and non roller cam too..... good luck <img border="0" alt="[patriot]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ August 21, 2007, 02:08 PM: Message edited by: asskickn88 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>N8</b> <br /><small>Member # 6048</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2007,7,21,14,12,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Dont do it. Even tow yards give you lien papers of some type. I had the most awful time getting the pink slip to a car one time like this. They are going to want the trail of signatures. Only way I'd put up with the hassle is if dude would take 4-500, then I would say do it. Not mention the car looks thrashed. And its a 85 (slower engine) and a AOD, 7.7 rear end and may not have the true duals. Quite a few reasons I would pass on it. but not having the pink/lien papers kills it for me<br /><br />wait and it doesnt roll? tranny shot?

This could mean many things. Did he go to another shop get it to pass smog illegally? On the record you viewed this, turbo, does it list how soon, after he failed the test, he reattempted the second test. Time between the initial fail and the one that passed may give some light to the fact if he did things the right way, or quick fixes. Also, if that was his last test, you are required to have it checked again the year after, 2003. Car could have been sitting since 2003, if there are no other records of smog maybe??
