Well, I can't speak for California but it is, and was, possible in
Missouri. It was a little bit of a hassle. I did the "leg work" via
phone and finally got the person who is capable of these types of
things. I was directed to the local Highway Patrol troop where they did
a VIN verification. Then off to the Department of Revenue (DMV to
others) where I met w/ the lady w/ who directed me in the first place.
A little paperwork, including $7.50 title fee and it was done.
