Title question.

I did go to our DMV and they said (generally) the same as most of you did. "Get him to fix it!" I'm in communication with him now.
Thanks to all for your responses.

He went to the DMV and requested to process the title he received from the previous owner, as a "title only" not to be "tagged" to drive. His DMV has said it will cost around $200.00 (no big deal) because of back taxes (on a parts car???) and a penalty for not processing the title within an allotted time? Anyway, when I go to get the car, we are supposed to go down to their DMV and straighten it out. I'll let you all know how it turns out.
Thanks for all the advice.
