Is SC or GA more car hobby friendly?

Sorta. Here's the details on "all that". Say you lose the title. Then you sell your car with a bill of sale only. Legal to do on older cars in Georgia (I think it's 1985 and older). The new owner doesn't give a crap about a title. (Not a good idea, ask me how I know) New owner goes and registers "new to him" car in his name. "Somewhere" down the road he decides to sell it. The new owner can never, ever get a title again since the car has now been registered without one. I don't care how fancy a title company you get, or what lawyer does what kinda rain dance. You AIN'T gettin a title in Georgia on a car if it's ever been registered without one. They even "didn't like it much" when I went to register my Valiant. Right off the bat they told me old cars don't get titles. "I" had to tell "them" what the law stated, and EVEN THEN they weren't going to even run it through to FIND OUT until I insisted. She ran it and then said "oh yeah, it's sayin you can have a title". That's the fine service our tax money is paying for.


I believe you.
Let me change one of your sentences for clarity, to see if I understand what you are saying since I'm pretty sure if he comes here with a PA title he could get a GA title.

You AIN'T gettin a title in Georgia on a car if it's ever been registered (in Georgia) without one.

Obviously, if his car's were registered in PA, and he has no title from there he will not get a GA one. (Is that possible in PA, IDK?)
I'm assuming if they run the VIN it will show as registered in PA since I'm thinking it is all connected.
Even when I've called for insurance quotes, the insurance companies know what cars I have.

But again, you are saying that if someone pulls a car out of the weeds and it's not in the nation wide VIN system, they will issue a title?
I believe you, but was unaware of that.
And, frankly surprised.


Basically what you are saying then is once the car changes owners with no title, GA will not issue one.
