No, what you have is an "open" title and the owner, him or herself must be present to sell the vehicle. You should have obtained a vehicle power of attorney, and left the title un-signed until it was sold. However, The Modified Notary Certificate of Default Method: is a VERY EFFECTIVE legal technique to receive rights to the title!

No. A person who doesn't own a car cannot sell it. In order to purchase a car and then register it in your name as owner you need a Certificate of Title signed by the present owner of the car. That certificate is the document that transfers ownership to you. You must then turn it in to the state department of motor vehicles to register the car in your name.
