During the summer I got a roller from a local member. (For my V8 conversion) After being away at university I finally got a chance today on Christmas break to go get the title changed and switched over. So I went in and showed the ownership and the lady said she couldn't transfer it because the car was over 20 years old and it needed an appraisal. I said the car is going in my name as unfit and won't be in the road for a few years, it doesn't even have an engine! She wouldn't budge on that and talked to her manager. (She was a friend of mine and really tried to help so I was calm) I mentioned last year about the same time I brought an ownership in for another 914 and paid the taxes on the cost of the car so I had the same intentions today. I guess since the last car was from out of province last time it was missed during the transfer.
To make a long story short I need to get an appraisal on a car with no motor or parts just to pay the government the TAX from the appraisal. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif)
Currently its barely worth scrape! (Worth more to me specificity of course)

Sorry, just had to vent and give a tale how the government is screwing us over...on another thing.....

You should be able to get an appraisal from any shop for around $75.00. Mikes 914s did mine but I would think that a "bill of sale" would work to prove the value for you. Here is a piece of paper with the sellers name and address and phone number and a value of $100.00. Here is my $13.00 HST.

Thats what I was hoping! She explained it was because it was over 20 years old though... didn't even ask to see the bill of sale. I find that hard to believe. I guess I can't complain I looked into an appraisal for my finished car and that was about $125 because he would have to come to my place and look at it.
I never thought of Mikes 914. I take it he would have to see the car though or would just pictures work? Just happens I will be on the 401 going past next week.

I have always found Mike to be very accommodating. Give him a call and I'm sure he will look after you.

Hey maybe you could weigh the car and get a quote from a scrapyard? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
