You must have a title to sell a vehicle if the new owner plans to title the vehicle. If you are selling the car for "parts only", and not planning to put the car back on the road, then you can sell it with a bill of sale only. If they want to title the vehicle, you need to go to your local DMV and apply for a lost/stolen title. Once you get the duplicate title, then you can sell the vehicle.
If you get a motorcycle but the seller never sends you the title, you should contact the seller. If the seller still does not give you the title, you should take the seller to court. The seller is obligated to provide you with a valid title so that you can register the car.

You need to get a "lost title" form from the DMV and have the seller sign it. This form will work as the title and you will need a "bill of sale" to go with it.
Lost Vehicle TitleGenerally you can apply for a lost title through your state Department of Motor Vehciels or Department of Licensing. It may make it easier if the previous owner goes with you (assuming he is the registered owner). States normally require that a previous owner notify them that a vehicle has been sold. In addition: You will have to submit an application for a lost title/damaged title. I believe only the registered owner of the vehicle from when it was title originally can obtain a replacement.In Ca the lost/not received/transfer form is available at DMV thiis is used for sale on auto where seller still has the title and never transfereed to themselves yet so has no "title" so you include additional title (form is a blank need to fill out all info on vehicle , seller, and buyer turn in with the other title(the one your seller never turned in for themselves, or you can use the lost/not received/transfer form if the other has been lost

1 Get a bill of sale 2 go to the local dmv apply for a lost title they may need you to provide more paper work. they will tell you what you need If the seller advertised the vehicle for sell "with a title", he must supply you with a title. He needs to apply for a duplicate (lost/stolen) title at a dmv in the state he lives in. If he won't supply one, contact eBay within 45 days and they will contact the seller to advise them of what they need to do. If he doesn't do what they advise within 30 days, eBay protection will refund your money. They have a great protection plan and will work with you to get you what you need as long as it was advertised and the seller didn't follow through with his part of the deal.
