Hello
Hello everyone,
I've been reading posts here for some time while trying to keep my 98 F150 in daily driver status. I've joined now that I bought my 1960 F100 to see what I can learn about restoring it. I'm trying to get my paper work in order before beginning tear down, and researching possible drive train options. Thanks for the add.

Thank you
Thank you to everyone for the hellos. I'm just getting started on the truck, and well, for now that means just trying to obtain the title. The truck was left on the a property after the original owner died, and his wife not longer wanted to live out in the boonies with 50 million old trucks by herself. She sold the property, and everything on it to the person I bought the truck from. He has misplaced the certificate of ownership, which means dealing with DMV more than I'd like to. Does anyone have experience in dealing with this type of a situation, and Nevada DMV? Any words of advice?

Second: There seems to always be a way to get this sorted out, but it is usually done so rarely that it takes a while to find the right resources.
I'm not sure of Nevada's specifics, but it might be easiest to go the route of getting a bonded title. Many states, maybe all, allow this in some form. Information about Nevada's bonded titles process is here: https://dmv.nv.gov/regbonded.htm
I skimmed it, it looks like a lot of other states' processes: Apply, pay a fee determined based on the value of the vehicle, live with a branded title for three years, apply to lift the brand, get normal title.

First: be patient. With the DMV and yourself.
