Quickfarms Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 I seem to remember seeing a picture of that truck on a trailer in a thread here Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/54854-1938-mack-ch-freehold-nj/#findComment-409689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tjc transport Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 if i remember correctly, that truck was found abandoned at an old pig farm that a developer bought to build mc mansions on, and the developer is trying to make a fortune selling it. i don't think he has a title for it either, which is needed to transfer vehicles here in New Jersey.

Vladislav Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I doubt many folks will be found eager to bring their well kept $20K but something like 2-2.5K could save that rare creature from further abondoning or rotting away and than scrapping.

justintocci Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 I would second that motion if there was a title. Without a title there's paperwork to get one and it can be a long process. The smart thing to do would be to store it until you got that all straightened out and then you'd want to know the details of the title insurance you're buying. I'm no expert but I wonder if the rightful owner will show up and want to take it away after you've poured your time and money into it. Anyone applied for a title on a vehicle with no title before?

tjc transport Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 in New Jersey, the only way to do it is apply for an abandoned vehicle title. and that takes about 18 months to get. in other states you can use one of the title agencys from Alabama or North Carolina. New Jersey does not recognize titles from those agencys as valid and will not issue a clean NJ title with their papers.

h67st Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Here in Ohio I've talked to guys who have gotten an assembled vehicle title, but I have no idea what it takes to get one. Basically if you build a car or truck from parts, you can then get a title for it.

tjc transport Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 same here in Jersey, but it needs to be inspected by the state police DOT team. and if they see ANYTHING they don't like, it is rejected and you have to schedule another $400 inspection. not sure for the price of truck inspection the $400 price is for cars/pickups. same way a salvage title vehicle gets re-certified for road use.

Hobert62 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 In pa to get a reconstructed or special construction title. You need receipts to show you paid sales tax for parts purchased. Vermont doesn't issue titles on vehicles over 15 years old I think, and strictly goes with a bill of sale.

41chevy Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) It was for sale at Hersey this year for 30K. NYS all you need on a pre title vehicle is a bill of sale and a tracing of the VIN or the Motor Number. They issue a 6 month non transferable registration. If it come clear after 6 months you get a transferable registration.
