Bought an old ‘72 truck project that’s got no title & sat since the early ‘90s. I’m in Oklahoma & I can get a court order done but I sign a notarized form that says I know it’s not stolen & there is no liens against it. Is there somewhere I can check to verify that is correct & it’s clean?

I bought a 65 Barracuda out of GA a while back, and got them to check it out before I went to get it. GA doesn't issue titles for cars that old, but he coached me thru the whole process and I now have a title in my name.

The opposite however is possible, you can know it is stolen, such as if you or an associate stole it. More likely it says/means you have no knowledge that a reasonable person would know that it is stolen, and a reasonable person would make some effort, such as conferring with a legit third party to research records regarding title/lien/theft records/status. If done, then worst that can happen, is you lose the truck no jail time. ..
Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.

Insurance agent doesn't have access to that info, and an insurance company itself is not permitted to access/share information in these cases due to privacy concerns. NCIC, NICB would all be good places to start. Getting info on a lein might have to be obtained through the state, though. Rarely are insurers involved in situations that also involve a mechanic's lein.
