KOT: Car transfer Options

[RiqueMar]

I have a problem, and I don't know where to start.

Years ago, my Father bought a 911 SC Targa out of Oregon. Somehow, it didnt have a pink slip. I'm trying to get ahold of the pink slip because in the last 2 years or so, I've gained an interest in cars. Would I be able to contact the Oregon DMV for this? Or do I have to track down the previous owner or dealer?

I hope someone has been through this before and can send me in the right direction.

If your Dad has had it for years with No Title, I assume it is just sitting. Is it worth Titling?

It had been sitting, but it runs and everything. Here's the story....

My Dad bought this car in Oregon, I think from Craigslist or eBay. Took everything out of a slant nose he had; interior, electronics, all the goodies. Had it running great, as an anniversary present for my Mom. When she saw it, her words were, and I quote, "Oh, a Porssssh".

He then sold it to an employee who never did the leg work on it to get it registered or anything, and said employee was working on it one day, and forgot to completely close the front hood, which resulted in some front cowl damage.

Employee then sold the car BACK to my Dad, and the car sat for a number of years (I think 3/4) as no one had an interest in it. This is where I come into the picture.

One day, we go over to our storage site where the car had been stored in a covered space with a car cover. My Dad had left the car with the battery in it, but disconnected. We plus in the battery, and the 3.0 starts right up.

Being that this is my favorite model/ year/ body type I have a huge interest in making it a great driving car. Now that the cowl is fixed, and it's had some cleaning up, all that has to be done is some fun paperwork.... which is where I am now.



So, to answer your question, I think it's very much worth titling, as all it needs now is the registration and a radio.
