Car title
I have bought a 1998 Ford Contour from a privite owner for 500.00 dollars with the transmission that had to be replaced. I have replaced the transmission for over 1600.00. I have had the car for well over 6 or 7 months and the guy I have purchased the car from for some reason does not want to produce the title. He frist said he filed for a lost title. But now he won't even answer my call or answer my messages. I don't think the car was stolen because I was pulled over by the police for a out of date tag. And the local tag agent tell me the title has to be found and will not give me any infromation why. I have spent all my savings for this car and it is the only transportion that I have. Am I out of luck or is there anything I can do without spenging a lot more money?

It only cost $10 for a lost title, I don't think he had title for it.
Send him a certified letter asking for the title or you r taking him to court, for the return of your money & new tranny, & he gets car back. Your business deal with him was a car & TITLE!!!
Try the scare tatic first, a certified letter is $5.23, a small claim court is at the least $43.00.
Also send copy of letter , just 1st class, so even if he does not sign for cert., he will still receive his copy. Keep copy of letter for yourself.
