American Certificate of Title for a vehicle

[Gość: sisi]

URGENT!
Could somebody decipher these for me:
MP
AX
WC
AH Class

Huh?

[Gość: Bert]

Are you sure you know what you want? What American title?
Federal?
The states issue title certificates.
Besides, the title class is usually single-letter coded.
(Class here means vehicle characteristics or intended
use, e.g. passenger, ambulance, etc.)

[Gość: sisi]

Right. Forgot to add it's from California.

me? well, I'm a class "D" kind of guy:
D - single vehicle less than 26,000lb. may not tow vehicle in excess of
10,000lb. GVWR unless equipped w/class 4 equalizer or 5th wheel.
erwas.

[Gość: Bert]

This whole title mess is state-specific and I don't think
the titling is equivalent to the driving license coding.
For example, some title classes (single letter codes)
might be:
A-Passenger Cars
M-Multi Purpose Vehicle
B-Passenger Vehicle Operated for Hire
D-Motorcycles
L-Historic Vehicles, etc.

In addition, there are two-letter codes denoting the
title type. Just for the heck of it,in my neck of the woods:
BS-Bill of Sale
CT-Clean Title
RP-Repossesion, etc.

I am afraid it will take a cunning, underhanded used car
dealer to figure out Sisi's puzzle.

[Gość: sisi]

Thanks guys.

As for MP, I'm still in the woods (multi-purpose????).
The AX could have something to do with axles (number? weight? what for anyway?)
The WC - no idea, except for the obvious association.
The AH Class, in the light of your replies, could be a space ship, or at least
an attack helicopter ;-))

[Gość: sisi]

Thanks, even though can't find anything re the pink slip a friend asked me to
interpret ;-)
ONE PROBLEM:
The Registration says: *YR 88 but YR MODEL 80. I gather it is a model 80
vehicle registered/sold in 88, but the owner says it was actually first sold in
1980. Could you help me get a grip on it? THX!!

Dates,titles

[Gość: Bert]

First, the title. Are you sure you need the title
type/class, not the motor vehicle class? My registration
slip and title certificate show the title number (two
letters, six numerals), not the title type. The title
type is buried somewhere in the registrar's office.

Second, the dates. Yes, it is possible. Remember the
registration must be renewed periodically. The title is
"attached" to the car and belongs to the owner. You don't
renew the title. Now, are we talking dates shown on the
registration slip or on the title certificate? It is
easier for me to describe my paperwork dates. Please compare.

There are three dates on my registration slip:

1.MFRS MODEL YEAR (the year the car was manufactured and
available for sale, not necessarily sold to the paying
customer, never changes)
2.EFFECTIVE DATE (the day the registration was issued,
changes every two years)
3.EXPIRY DATE (the day the registration will expire,
changes every two years)
The registration in my state is to be renewed every 2 years.

There are three dates on my Certificate of Title:

1.DATE OF ISSUE (states when the certificate-the piece of
paper-was printed, it does not have to be the same as the
purchase date or any other date of interest).
2.MFRS MODEL YEAR (same as mfrs model year on the
registration slip, never changes)
3.PURCHASE DATE (the day I bought the car and the title)
Dates 1 and 3 on the title stay unchanged as long as I
hold the title.

I hope this helps.

[Gość: sisi]

As I put it at the beginning - it's all about the Title, not registration. And
thank you for clearing up the YR MODEL thing.
