Talk about the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.

The rare Nissan is most likely a Skyline. Which those cars cand have titling problems these days on their own due to an issue with the company that was importing them and doing the federalization/making legal safety wise etc for america. Even if they were legit when they bought them. One of my best friends has one of the few legal Skylines in America here in Ohio.

Even though this is probably a case of the sale of a racecar deal gone bad, it does bring up questions of ownership of racecars.

So the questions of the day become...When you bought your racecar, did you get a title and did you file it with your state authorities? Should you have? How would you prove it is your racecar? Could a racecar with no serial number be questioned by authorities?

Probably a broken partnership or unpaid balance.

I sold a roller '67 Barracuda around 1980 with title. Buyer paid, came to my apartment complex to pick it up and it was gone. Police report filed and I looked like the schmuck. A couple years go by and I'm out with friends late at night, go around a corner and there was the Barracuda. I called the legit owner at 1:00 a.m., he showed up with the Sheriff at sunrise and the guy that had possession of the Barracuda (appears he bought it from the thief), lost his investment which by now included many upgrades.
Lesson learned: you buy a shell and it's hot and you ad your hemi and everything else, if somebody has a police report and legit title proving ownership, your SOL and the sheriff takes it all away and hands the keys off to the legit owner!
I'll never own a car without legit / legal documents verified by MVD!
And I see ClassRacer has a car for sale and it would appear there could be an issue to address before money is exchanged. :(

Jeff, You can get your motor and trans back if you can show you put it in the car in question, happened to me in 69 with a 67 camaro body. I took proof to the NJ state police and I was alowed to remove the engine and trans right in the impound yard.

That's a fight I'd rather not fight! Bottom line, you take your chances without a title!

The ad seemed vague and I dismissed it. I searched racingjunk.com and some others, but cannot find it again.

Does that sound like the car?

It was posted on here last week, and is no longer on here.
