But he never went to the DMV to register in his name, well- not until like the day or two before I went to go see it, he partially filled the paperwork but didn't pay any of the fee's owed or anything. Basically it needs a VIN check by the dmv, a smog check, light check and then I need to pay like $260 owed on it from the lien and then I can apply for the title.

I drove it home from Inglewood, which I probably shouldn't have- as I know if I got stopped it could of been seized but it was running so I did it anyway. Main problem with the car is the poor single cam is making a tapping noise- I think it is a rod knock and it has low compression- it wasn't going higher than 2k rpm on the 710 back home, but I was going light on the gas anyhow. It has this huge 3" exhaust with long tube header- I am removing and got all the stock piping all the way back for it already.

I will update soon
Man that sounds like it's going to be a hassle. Good luck! Keep us posted.
