I recently had the occasion to swap my Tiger registration from a state
that didn't require titles for older cars to Florida which does require a
title
To get a title in Florida all that was required was for the car to be
viewed and VIN verified by Law Enforcement or DMV in the former state. With
this authentication and a current registration, Florida was willing to
issue me a title and new registration.
This worked good for me, but I can see all kinds of illegal possibilities.
Say an older, valuable car is flood damaged in Florida or any other
state. If it is totaled FL will not register it. Other states might allow you
to register, but the title is stamped "salvage". But if you bring this car
to a state that doesn't require titles for older cars, you can register it
without a title and at a later time get a clean title in the process
described above.
I've heard that there is criminal activity regarding "washing" titles and I
can see that it's possible using the above. Mark L
