Pink Slip Title

The legal title your classic never had.

You own the car. You just can’t prove it, sell it, or insure it. We get you a real, state-issued title for classic cars and motorcycles 30 years and older — no surety bond, no court order.

Most states won’t help you

If your classic has no title, your own state is probably a dead end. Florida’s bonded title process refuses any vehicle more than 29 years old. Ohio and Pennsylvania don’t offer a bonded title at all — your only route there is hiring a lawyer and petitioning a court. Texas, Georgia and North Carolina require you to be a resident, and Georgia additionally requires the car to have held a Georgia title before.

That’s the gap. These states have simply decided not to serve old vehicles, and the paperwork you need doesn’t exist behind their counters. We file through Montana, which does.

What you get

A real title

A certificate of title issued by the State of Montana in your name. Not a bill of sale, not a registration — the actual ownership document.

No surety bond

Montana waives the bond entirely for vehicles 30 years and older. Nothing to buy, nothing to post, no three-year brand on your title.

Verified, not just filed

A notary or officer physically inspects your vehicle and certifies the VIN. That third-party verification is why the title holds up.

Is your vehicle eligible?

  • 30 years old or older. Cars, trucks and street motorcycles.
  • You possess it lawfully — bought it, inherited it, or it’s been in the family.
  • No lien against it that was never released.
Check your own state first. If you live in Alabama, Maine, New Hampshire, Georgia or Tennessee, your vehicle may need no title at all, or your state may issue one far more cheaply than we can.We’ll tell you — we’d rather lose the sale than charge you for something you don’t need.

Start with your state

Ohio: titling a classic car with no title

Ohio has no bonded title process. For a classic with no paperwork, your only in-state route is a court order — here's what that involves and what the alternative is.

Pennsylvania: titling a classic car with no title

PennDOT offers no bonded title. For an untitled classic your in-state option is a court-ordered involuntary transfer — or Montana.

Florida: your classic is too old for a bonded title

Florida's bonded title process excludes vehicles more than 29 years old. If your classic has no title, FLHSMV's own rules rule you out — here's why, and what's left.
