So my wife is selling her 2005 Mustange GT and we're buying a 2008 GT500 about 6 hours away, its in NC, we're in TN.
Its our first used car and we're learning a ton. First of buying a car that is financed is a PITA, then our bank is not calling us back but giving us a great rate for a used car (3.15%). Since the bank is being so unresponsive we're going to pay out of pocket then finance about 40% once we have the title, I'm told this is easier anyone since we'll have the title in hand. We're paying with 2 cashier checks, one to his finance company for the layoff then one to him for the remainder.
Our city clerks office told us to get a notarized bill of sale which the seller is going to get. I'm having a hard time as to what else I need to transport it. My understanding is that he keeps his license plate. The clerk said we might look into a temporary license but I thought that was given at a car lot only, I have no idea where I would get one. My wife is flying next Saturday to test drive and pick it up.
So what is your guess, aside from the notarized bill of sale and proof of insurance what should I get to legally drive it back to TN. I think I can use the bill of sale to then register the vehicle in my home town.
