Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
He joined 2 days ago and doesn’t have enough posts to put an ad in the For Sale section. No location listed, so use caution if interested. License plate says “Cuba”.

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
I don't spend 3 seconds on ads without a location.If they won't give me a number to call them,or call the number I send,(their choice) I don't bother.I'm not typewriting back and forth to sell or buy cars or parts.Initial contact is fine,but I sometimes have people want to send 30 texts back and forth to find out less than I could have gotten or given in a two minute phone call.I don't have a phone that texts anyway.

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
I'm not thinking scam just yet,but with the world wide web I just don't bother to look if there is no location.While I realize that picture could have been taken in a thousand places,the background really looks like a place on the cape I have been to look at Model A's before.

The cars in the background don't look like it's in Cuba.

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
If you think getting title to an out-of-state car is difficult, I cannot imagine what would happen if I showed up at DMV and said "I have this old car from Cuba that I'd like to register..."

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
You need import documents. Not a big problem for a pre smog car but anything that needs an epa sticker it gets difficult. Time limits and bonds to get it up to US standards. Not done in time won't pass emissions/safety regs they come take your car and crush it.

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
Guys, the car is in Tacoma, Washington. In the U.S. I doubt that car has been anywhere close to Cuba.

You also run into CA DMV problems with the engine number being the VIN. They want to see visible numbers on the chassis to use not the engine number like was originally done. My car has a CA assigned VIN since they didn't want to use the "removable engine" as the VIN. I also had the same problem with an engineless 54 Studebaker that had been registered with the engine number. Studebaker also had a chassis serial number - the numbers were different. Fortunately Studebaker records still exist and I was able to get a copy of the original build card that showed the number on the engine paired up with the body number. DMV then issued a title with the chassis serial number listed as the VIN. Of course it's CA and your results will vary by which office you go to and even within that office depending on who you get at the window..... California has over 1,282 DMV locations that are capable of registering a new vehicle. |

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
Your system of having titles for cars leaves me scratching my head.

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
Synchro909,
I'm curious - how do folks prove legal ownership in your country when a motor vehicle changes hands? |

Re: For sale fully restored '31 Tutor
I live in California and have been dealing with old cars for over 60 years now. I NEVER go directly to DMV but use a private DMV Service. They know what they are doing and can help get these old car title problems straightened out.
My experience, Chris W. |

You have personal knowledge of this? (other than what is shown on the listing in the for sale section?) Seems kind of strange that the seller hasn't even logged in since making their 3 posts 10 days ago. |
