Title issues in north carolina for a truck they labelled as 'parts'

[scottmitchellrose]

OK, so I did a stupid thing because... I just didn't know any better. I bought a 61 apache 10 from my cousin (never got the title from previous guy 15 years ago). I went to do the indemnity bond thing to get a title- and was dumb enough to write that my cousin bought it intending to use it for parts. The nc dmv then slapped 'parts' on it- and said i could never title it or register it. Sadly, it's a perfectly good, working, driving truck. any advice? above board of course.
