How do you get the title for a vehicle?

The previous owner will have the title, if he or she owns it free and clear. Otherwise, the bank or loan agency has possession of the title until the balance owed to them has been paid off, and will show them as leinholder. Never ever purchase a vehicle without obtaining the title from the previous owner(s). It is their responsibility to obtain this FOR you, not the other way around. If you purchased and are restoring a non-running vehicle , just take the recept with a note from the owner to Motor vehicles and file for a lost title. This often happens with an estate purchase.
