In an effort to find a specific PO (last registered) of my 928, I thought I would do a simple 'round the world while I was at it.

I am looking for people from around the Corpus Christi TX area who may know a specific PO of my car. IF you are from that area, PM me and I will see if you can help, it you are interested. Maybe you know him or know someone who knows him.
I am looking for him to sort out an issue I have found with the title of the car. I need to find him so I can get her registered in the great state of IN and be able to LEGALLY hit the road! Let's kill 2 birds with 1 stone. Here we go

1987 928S4, red, auto, not sure on the specifics of options, etc.

Car was purchased originally by a gentleman in Corpus Christi TX by the name of George Conde(#1). It was sold by him to another gentleman in CC named Jose Manuel Mendoza(#2) in 2002. From this point the chain of ownership gets blurry. I purchased in from a wholesaler(#4) in Chattanooga who had recently (within the previous few days of my purchase) purchased it from a gentleman(#3) who had owned it for several years(also in the Chatt area). Because he(#3) is a registered dealer, he never had to plate or register the car. I have met him and dealt with him on the phone several times since I purchased the car, and he informed me that he picked it up at an auto auction. This is where the issue lies. The title was signed by Mr. Mendoza as the seller, no date, no amount, no purchaser's name, etc. Now, in order to title the car in IN, I need a bill of sale. I know it is a long shot, but I would like to try to find Mr. Mendoza and approach him about filling out said BOS. I know it is a loooooong shot but, I figure, why not try.

Any suggestions?

Very interesting. I'm surprised the person you bought the car from cannot provide you with a clean title. (If not, it should have dramatically lowered the price.) I don't know the law in Indiana, but most states have a "bonded title" provision that addresses this situation. I'm confident Indiana allows for bonded titles; I don't know how to apply for one there. In AZ, it's fairly simple and straight forward.

To answer your poll questions: This is my first 928 (loving it so far). The rest of the answers are in my signature, below.
