tow yard sells me a improperly liened vehicle
I purchased a 1992 camaro from a tow company by answering an ad in the auto trader for $900.00 I took out the motor that was in it as it had a main rod bearing problem and I put a high performance new motor in it. I went to the dmv to register/transfer title, etc and the lady tells me that they had no right to sell me that car as it was owned by military personnel and they could not be notified properly of the lien sale if they wanted to opose the sale therefore I was to return the car back to the towing company (she commented,”they should know this”)and get my money back. Unless they preceded to redo the lien and got proof from the commanding officer to the registered oner, showing proof of service for the lien sale. In reveiwing my paper work, noticed that on the bill of sale the gut wrote ”Scrap Only” and a purchase price of $50.00 yet on my carbon copy receipt from the tow company’s recept book it states ”as is” and shows that I paid $900.00 cash. I’ve got money and time into this vehicle and am very disappointed what should I do?

    Perhaps it would be easier to get a bill of sale from the registered owner and sue the tow company for the expense that may incurr thereby and for the loss of use value for the time the car could not be registered. Please call me directly at (619) 222-3504.
