Now if they don't have the original title in their name with no liens and signed in all the necessary spots I will walk away right then and there.

Moral of the story: Dealing with title problems is such a headache you don't want to even get started with. Talk about a total waste of time.

any car 10 years or older, you only need the previous registration, and a bill of sale

you'll be fine, unless the registered owner is a *****, thats the only 'problem' that could keep you from getting a new title

also, if you can, go to a laid back DMV office, here in the city over, the people are dicks but 2 cities over they are very relaxed on the paperwork
