Older dated title registration...
Anyone have experience with transferring a title in Illinois that was signed AND DATED as sold several years back? If so, How did that go? Penalties? Lost cause?

Here in New Mexico, there is also a penalty, but I don't remember the specifics. When I bought a '78 Toronado out of state and brought it here, it sat in my garage for about a month (I had to get it running) before I took it over to the DMV to get the new title, and they penalized me for the lateness. I told them it didn't run, so how I could I get it here for them to do their VIN inspection and all, and the guy said that there is way to do it which I think involved making an appointment and having someone from the office come out to my house. Live and learn!
In the OP's case, give the Illinois DMV a call or stop in to the nearest office and ask. Let us know what they say.

If he has a signed and dated title, his name is not in it. He would have to go through the previous owner to get the duplicate, and that's not generally feasible.
I actually had this happen to me, but with a lost title. I sold my 1970 442 is 1998 and the guy tracked me down 8 years later because he never transferred it to his name and was trying to sell the car. He had lost the title and I had to get the replacement so that he could sell it. I ended up buying it back from him.

I'm guessing you've never worked in a car dealership and sold cars for a living.
PM me and I'll explain how to get a duplicate/replacement title, as long as you have an original title with the seller's signature.
