I have not decided how to register it, but that was not my
question,
my question is what to do with a blank title.

At least in Missouri, and with a commercial dealer as the seller,
the
title
is a worthless piece of fancy paper. What COUNTS is the documents
submitted
directly by the dealer to the DMV. They will issue a NEW title
made out
to you after you pay the property taxes on the vehicle and register
it.
At least, this is what happens in MO when you buy a vehicle for
cash.


Well, that's likely what would happen in IL, too, if it were
actually a
dealer. This is/was a private sale/auction, though.

OK, I thought Iggy bought this at some kind of auction. As it is a
commercial vehicle, there may be some different rules to title
transfer.
Anyway, the bill of sale is still likely to be more important. But,
the
DMV may need some paperwork sent directly from the seller to confirm
they
intend to transfer the title.

I will go there on Saturday with the title and the auction invoice to
be the "bill of sale". I will post an update.

I am already driving this truck around my building, just to learn its
operation. Just driving in 1st speed. I never drove a stick shift
vehicle before. It is very different.

Never drove a stick shift before..and now you own a semi?

Gnerk!

Enjoy the learning experince.
It will be a long one.

You bet, it will be. I will practice at least 20 minutes every day.

i

Particularly in 1st gear!

Grin

I moved up to the second gear today.

Also, a semi truck delivered something to me today, and when he and I
waited for a crane, I paid him to check out my truck. He checked
everything out, drove around the building etc, and said that the truck
is good. he saw no issues with the engine, transmission.etc

i

Do you have to smog test the truck before you can get license plates?

Best Regards
Tom.
