Been nice for the short time it lasted

I took 3 months getting my title. Thought I had it all figured out, paid for all of it, get my tag and title reciept, and now I get a call saying Im not finished. After all of this hell, if I get anymore BS from these people Ill just sell it. Either outright or part it. What do you guys think it would be worth? 83' GS, black on black, paint is in ok shape, a bit faded but no bad damage, interior is great, carpet looks almost new. It has 130k miles, Mikuni carb, RB full streetport system, few other mods.

Well its been fun while it lasted, and Im sure Ill be back down the road, more than likely with a 3rd gen, but for now Im in search of a miata the Mazda got me where it wants me. Anyway, let me know if any of you want any of the parts and make me an offer by PM. Id prefer to sell it outright like stated, but I might part it out

Keep the car. Get a title and if ur still just fed up with it then sel it with the title. If it's as clean as you say it is, it's worth more with the title then without it.

I would agree with you, but Ive been getting the title for the last 3-4 months, and now that I "have" the title, they call me and tell me I need to get them more paperwork that I cannot get. So Im kind of screwed. Already paid for insurance and tag, for NOTHING!!!

I thought Alabama does not require a title on a car that old?

Explane the situation a little more and maybe I can help you out with info.

Part it out! I am local and might be able to use some parts. Don't know all the details for your situation but never had a hard time with my titles although I did have the titles from the previous owner. My SE had to have a visual inspection since it came from another state. This consisted of the dmv employee going out to the parking lot taking a quick glance at the car, did not even have to unlock the thing. Kind of suprised me since the vin on the dash is loosely fitted on the cracked defroster trim.
