Period.

You can sell a car with paperless title transfer and pending reg. Though what I stated above is the law period. If you reported what that DMV lady told you she could get in trouble. I buy cars people supposedly can't smog all the time. I make them pass. I just did it today. Tomorrow it goes in for the test. Its already been pretested on the dyno and it will pass. The lady I bought it from could not get it to pass. LOL Her loss my gain.
