I had a title magically disapear on me for a vehicle before I registered it in my name. I have a old registration for the vehicle and I bought the vehicle from my friend. Does he just have to go with me to get a new one??

Pretty sure it isn't going to be transferred from his name without his signature on it. So, you can probably have him request a duplicate title be sent, and then sign and transfer that way, or yea.. probably gotta take him with you for quicker service.

yeah your buddy will have to file for a second title which will cost you about $20. I would take him with and do the whole process there, and I would probably take the guy out for lunch for his time. I can't believe how many horror stories I have heard about people loosing titles in the other parties name and the other party not helping them get a second title.

agreed, and depending on what dmv service center you go to, you can get the title that day

There is a form you can have your buddy fill out to sell the vehicle with out a title, but you still gotta pay the $25 duplicate title fee. Go to the DMV, and talk to the people at the counter who hand out the number. They should be able to give you the paper work you need and help you out. Seeing as you know the guy and are in contact with him it's relatively straight forward.

Remember, it will always be in the last place you look.
