Got a dilemma with a vehicle I bought, wondering if anyone has a fix for the title I haven't thought of yet. Bought the car from Connecticut but the owner I bought it from lost the title. I've been talking to the last titled owner and he's more than happy to help. The problem is the car is an 84 and after 20 years old, CT will not print another title. Instead they say a registration and bill of sale become the equivalent to a title. Now here in nj I tell the dmv all this amd I have a letterhead backing all this up. The dmv says they won't take the bill of sale and registration, I still need a physical title even though I can't get one. No dmv will not call the ct dmv to find out where the discrepancy is, all that is on me even though all my researching shows I should be able to get a title.

Is there anything else to try and get the car titled here on nj?
