Title Question for 68 camaro
 

Hello,I'm looking for advice on a title question!!!!I live In the State of Ohio, and upon completion of My 68 Pro street Camaro I will have to turn in the original title to the State to be reissued so I may get plates.The title is from the original owner with signatures of the 3 owners between him and I,It gives the dates and other valuable history to my car that I don't want to lose,It also proves it was only titled for street use once,as it lived its life after 2800 miles on the Quarter mile.Has anyone got an Idea how to avoid this problem.

Make a photocopy of it before you turn it over to the state, and file the copy with the rest of your papers for the car.

Agreed. Color photo copies are of very good quality nowadays.

Can you get duplicate titles in your state is you "lost" the title and then "found" it later?

Re: Title Question for 68 camaro
 

In Ohio the title has to be transfered into his name to apply for a duplicate title.

I was faced with the same problem in CT. I asked motor vehicle what they did with the old title, and they informed me it would be destroyed. I refused to give it up, and they said OK keep it. I still have it. Question them before surrendering it.

Thanks to all for your input,I will keep trying to get through to them that this document is very important!!!!I may have to settle in the long run for the color copy

<font color="blue">https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif I'm gonna have the same or worse problem here in Florida.
My car never had a title.
In NY there were no titles 'til about '74 or so.
My car hasn't been registered since 1980.
The last time it was street driven was 1971.
Florida is going to have a field day with me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif </font>

Motion, back then your car "registration" in NY was your title. If you look on the back of it, you will see where you can transfer ownership. If you have not had the car registered since the 80's in NY, and do not have an old registration you can apply for a new one at any NY DMV office. Make sure you have your VIN #.
