IF the PO had used the vin instead of info off the trim tag, this would never have happened. In talking with this last DMV person, she revealed the original title was court ordered and didn't go thru a DMV office, which probably explains why it wasn't caught at that time. I still think with the MN taxpayers, having spent over 200 million to get an undated, properly working title and license program, it should have caught the 12 digits instead of 13 for 1970. According to my son, who now does titling work for a dealership, and the lady at the last DMV, if the state titling computer doesn't detect 17 digits, it automatically declines the transfer, but they can still override the decline and enter a vin manually and it will accept it. Doesn't seem like we got everything that system should be able to do for the amount of money spent.
