Buying car out of state

If its a NJ title, owner just signs the back. New York State is the same, at least it was 15 yrs ago..Some states require the title be notarized..If you do buy onw, look over the title carefully before you or the current owner sign..

New York State does not issue titles for pre-1973 cars (all Studebakers). Those cars get a transferable registration (1973-up cars get a title and a non-transferable registration). New York State does not require a notary for transfer. However, when I sell a car to an out of state buyer, I supply a notorized bill of sale along with any other documents. I do this just to help smooth things over for the buyer.
