Anyone done a lost title vehicle purchase?

I like it. You could start with a frame and build a truck. My 1986 needs some stuff. mtmuley

They have all five panels I would need.

I’m a decent MIG and TIG welder.

LMC has everything you need for square body trucks. Order the catalog. mtmuley

You have to be careful on price, they absolutely gouge you on some stuff. Then shipping is thru the roof. LMC for me was the place to shop when you couldn’t find it elsewhere.

I agree. I needed rear window glass (firewood hauling accident) and found it for less elsewhere. But as far as selection of parts, down to missing miscellaneous screws their selection is tough to beat. mtmuley

I only need small corners if I buy this.

Hopefully not shipping big panels.

Need a drivers front fender. Hoping that would be a local thing.

I would be able to carefully keep the badges of the old one.

So here is the photo from the CL ad.

MissT and I saw it and drove it.

Nice. From one picture you don't find them like that anymore easily. What's the guys number? mtmuley

My uncle had one like that, only brown.

We had a fleet of them in our contracting business in the 70’s & 80’s

Size of the product doesn’t matter for them to jack shipping up. I had ordered the front bow tie badge for my OBS. Box was 5x5x8 maybe, shipping was over $25.

I ordered it from them as it was GM. It was old stock that I found out had bad paint. The paint was used to glue the two pieces of plastic together. I went thru 2 in a week before they refunded me. Hopefully they quit selling them.

If you do buy it, only buy it with the death certificate and bill of sale.

It can speed up the process. The funeral home that did the service can order the family a copy with a phone call.

Owner found original title. Idaho DOT told him three weeks to issue new Idaho papers.
I have a handshake on dibs at the original asking price when it clears.

In alabama it is just an online form to get a replacement title. My parents bought some land and the lady told us her brother would come get the truck that was parked there. 9 years later and many reminders later it was still there. Turns out that anyone can do the form if you have the owners info and get the new title shipped anywhere you want.
