Need to ship a truck from Fort Smith,Ark. to Austin,Tx

[67c10rustbuket]

I would try to get the title from the last owner before exchanging any money but then again I don't know TX law. some states it is a real pain and others it is pretty effortless to get a title.

We do a "title 42" really it is a mechanics lein. Do a title search, vin search, Send the last registered owner and other interested parties a certified letter stating what you have invested in the vehicle and if they want to pay for it well then they can pay you to get it back. This is why you document every part bought for it, Transport, every hour of labor at $75, storage at $15 a day, etc. I racked up over 10 grand on my 67 before I filed the papers. Paid a title specialist $60 to do it for me. Not sure about Tex but I have done it a few times here in OK.

Hope you find a good way to transport it home, you can never have too many!
