There is probably an abandoned vehicle lien procedure that could be invoked. If the local police have been harassing him about moving it, they might be willing to help you out with finding the previous owner, who might be willing to file that duplicate title request. See if the old man has any children/relatives nearby who may be familiar with his "filing system." They might be able to help find the title, especially if they know that he might be in legal trouble for keeping the truck. The DMV will probably not want to process a duplicate title request from anyone but the owner they have on record. That could take months/years and may involve police and/or judges. ![]() If you are able to take possession of the truck and have some paperwork documenting the purchase, you will almost certainly be able to register it eventually. My suspicion is that Illinois is very strict about this sort of thing. So, without a title, and with little to go on, how does one start to unravel this mess? It's been sitting out in the open on his driveway in a newer neighborhood for years, not even covered up, so I seriously doubt that it is stolen.Īnd it is quite a unique model. The DMV has confirmed for me that the truck is NOT titled in the current "owner's" name (and they can't tell me WHO they show that it is titled to because of privacy regulations) so his story seems to be correct there. The current "owner" is in his late 80's, and he simply can't find the title, and can't remember who he bought it from. and we don't know who that person is, or even if he's still alive. The truck is still titled in the previous owner's name. Not only can't the owner find the title, he never had the title transferred into HIS name when he bought the truck 10-15 years ago. I'm interested in buying an old truck that the owner needs to get off of his driveway and fairly soon, before the city takes legal action against him.īut here's the scenario.
