I did a bonded Texas title on a Chevelle I used to have so I'm not making this stuff up.

I've been told a mechanics lien is the quicker, easier, and cheaper solution BTW. I guess you have to have or know someone with a shop I guess.
You are the second person to tell me this and I think you are right. When the bonding company asked me to prove my financial net worth for a bond I asked her why and she said they wanted to be sure I could pay them back the bond if it was paid out.

I didnt dig further because the bond was not for a lot of money.

Years ago I did a mechanics lean on a car and it was very fast but I ended up paying 200 for the process. Which was about what I paid for this one.
