Author Topic: Help! Need Papers For 66 Bus (Read 1929 times)

Hi Gang,
I thought I would post here and see if anybody could tell me the correct way to go about getting papers/title/registration for this 66 Bus I picked up. The guy I got it from lost them and I don't think he was ever the registered owner. He got it from some old guy many moons ago, and it sat in his yard for a looooonnngggg time. I didn't even get a bill of sale, but I still could. I've just about got the motor in and wouldn't mind being able to get this unit on the road for a bit this summer.
So....if anybody has been through this, can you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Paul

Hey Heres my story . Get the bill of sale even if it is just on a piece of paper. Then right down vehicles serial # behind drivers front seat and or in engine compatment bay . I bought my 57 same way . Go to ICBC ask about Last resort procedure .It cost me 28$. I talked to a very helpful ladie over the phone' I had to tell the story about no regis , just bill of sale , not knowing of any leins . Then they checked thier system and my van had no leins hadn,t been regi'd for 10 years and had been purged from ICBC's system . She made up new regis for me as being new owner and numbers put insurance on it and drove it. I didn't need inspection even because it was a BC vehicle .Hope this helps you the lady at ICBC was really helpful and wanted to see me get on the road again

Later OUTKAST

Thanks man! That sounds really easy. What should the bill of sale say? Both of our names, DL #s, price?? What do you think? And, which ICBC agent did you go to? I went to BCAA here in Vancouver the other day, but they didn't seem to have a clue about what to do....I think one of those old time local ones might be better eh.

Get the current owner to right his name and drivers liscence # and something along the lines of YOU paid $----- so much dollars for said van 1966 on june --- and he believes it to be free and clear but no longer has any regis for it . Ask by name for the last resort procedure or a # you can call your local autoplan dealer doesn't do this kinda thing that often but it can be done good luck
