Got my M109A2 from the same place and under same circumstances, I was able to get title in my name after having the bill of sale and the signed SF97. Maybe I got lucky, but it's registered in CA and we all know how much fun the CA DMV is.
Well my pre-trip checkout ride opened up a can of worms, so looks like I'm joining DUG on the turning wrenches if I'm going to make it with the M109. Had planned on just doing an oil change (first on it by me) and now looks like I'm dealing with a rear seal, a coolant leak, a small oil leak and...
Well, the roof on the M109 did leak, just finished doing some work on that, guess I'll find how successful I actually was. I'll bring a tarp for an emergency backup and all will be golden.
The vin is stamped into the frame. Check the frame rail at the drivers side front. Hard to see especially if several coats of paint have been applied. Also, good luck on them matching.
Let me know if you get them off, I have a 1" drive twin hammer that I bought specifically for the lug nuts on the M109 that hadn't been removed in 40 yrs and had 23 coats of paint on em...it did the trick.
I can run down there if need be, it's only an hour or 2 if I remember.
