May 6, 200619 yr ok so my 83 wagon has no title, and the plates expire next month. I have at receit of sall from the owner before me. So should I try to get a new title or should I leave the car at a junk yard? THE BAD: There are alot of issues with the car, the inside is trashed, wheel bearing are shot, front wind-sheild leaks, ect. I am moving in AUG and have no place to keep the car. THE GOOD: The body is pretty straight. The engine runs great. The trans works good. So what do you think?
May 7, 200619 yr What's the specs? 4WD? Power steering? What's it got that's rare enough to warrent the work to keep it? EA81 wagons are a dime a dozen, but if it's special in some way you might consider keeping it. And if you decide to get rid of it at a junk yard, at least let us board members pick the parts from it first..... like if it has power steering I could use that.... GD
May 7, 200619 yr Author no its a base model, but it does have a dual range in it. sorry no power steering. still not sure if I am going to keep it or not? but in the mean time i am going to keep replacing parts on it. would be nice to find some new seats
May 12, 200619 yr Author I talked to a guy who is the manager of a auto licensing place here in Washington. Told him whats up and he is going to help me out! 1st we are going do a search and find out who is the old owner. Next after the old owner releases their interest in my car the I get a new title to the car. Here is the kicker, because I have owned the car for almost a year now with NO title, the state wants a $100 fee from me. Because this guy likes Roos, he is going to doctor the paper work for me, and tell the old owner to write is "gift" receipt of sale. So I will only have to pay the $25 to transfer the title!

I take it back; you're in Washington state. Did you ever register it with your name? If not, check with the previous owner (if you know him) and ask him to come to DOL with you and get a certificate in lieu of title and have him sign that over to you. Since you're doing it right there, it will only cost you $10 for the certificate and then whatever you need to do to transfer the title.

June 5, 200619 yr ed i was the one that over paid you for the 2 pug lugs Sorry about that; I have a problem correlating boardnames with people. Good luck getting the car titled.
