I live in Tennessee. Bought my Lotus from someone in Kentucky, private party. The guy worked at a motorcycle dealership and said he had someone there to do the notary. When we are doing the paperwork, the guy who is the notary tells me that the State of Kentucky does not require a seal and I like an idiot, went along with it. He had a lien on the car so I got a bill of sale and a Power of Attorney for Vehicle Transactions filled out. The bank gave the go ahead and I traded the check for the car. The title comes back from his bank showing the lien is paid off but it turns out I can't get the car titled in my name without the Power of Attorney sealed by a notary. I contacted the buyer and sent him a new form and a copy of the old form and he said he would take care of it. Fast forward, over a month later, many emails and excuses, and I still do not have the paperwork returned
Anyone know what I should do next? My bank is getting anxious not having the car titled over and I can't drive the car anymore because my temp tag has expired and I can't get another.
I'd think there was somthing fishy going on, but my bank has the title to the car. Perhaps this guy is just a horrible procrastinator. I just don't know what to do now.
