No. And not a good idea even if it was.
Yes, you can. If you are buying from a dealership (new or pre-owned) and they have taken the vehicle in as a trade-in then don't pay it off and you purchase it....someone is not going to be happy. Or, if you purchase from an individual who still owes a balance to the lienholder and never pays balance owed, again,.... someone is not going to be happy. As a previous employer of a pre-owned dealership, this does happen...BE SURE, you have the vehicle transferred to you with the seller's name and signature legible. Do a title search!! Why would anyone purchase a vehicle or take over notes and not have the vehicle registered in his or her name? DEFINETLY, not a smart thing to do.
Yes. The person you bought it from should have given you a clean bill-of-sale. Take all your personal stuff out of it, as it will soon and legally be gone.
there is also no bill of sale on it.
no
you will have to find out who has a lein on it have them fill out a fourm of lein satisfy. In most states a lien holder is recorded on the title and the lien holder will keep the title until the lien is paid off. After the lien holder is paid off, they will sign the title to release the lien and give/send the title to the owner. The title office can tell you who has a lien on the title.
You can get a bill of sale, which only entitles you to possess it. You can't get it registered without the title. If you're buying a vehicle with "no title" or "lost title", you may have a car with a large lien from a bank or finance company on it.
Lien sale. Dont know your state or laws, but in CA., lien sale works great.

If you are buying a car on payments then there will be a lien on the car. the company will release the lien once the car is paid off.
Buy the car in W Virginia, and then register the car in Wisconsin.
If the lien is a purchase money lien (granted to allow you to buy the car), then no. If it is a nonpurchase money lien (you granted a lien on the car to secure an unrelated debt), then yes.
you are gay if you read this
You should get a bill of sale AND the title of ownership.
