DAP,
The procedure you stated from DMV is the exact same one that they made me go though.
It took 3 trips to DMV. The Inspecter here in my region worked with me and made the process of obtaining the Title relatively easy, after all it is DMV. It also had never been titled before. Maybe a...
Count me in for one person. I'll be there Friday at noon time. I'll be bringing a cooler and an assortment of sodas. If you need me to pickup food supplies let me know.
If as a buyer you see that just leave. It is the same as when you lift the hood and see that a seller has painted everything under the hood the same rattle can color, and I don't mean military OD. The hoses and fan belt included. I would rather see it unpainted and do it my self paying...
