I too would not void the check. Lets face it, the check was cashed way before the car was shipped so that is a pointless gesture anyway. Do you have a bill of sale? You might be able to register it via a bill of sale in your state. There are things that could cause the seller not to have a title that do not include theft. Perhaps the seller just lost the title and could care less to give you the service of helping you out now that he has the cash. If the seller gave you a bill of sale you might be able to claim title. Additionally it might have been a car put together from salvage and thus not titled. My advise: Figure out if the car is stolen first. If the VIN is listed nationally as stolen you have several paths to take. The smart move would involve declaring pocession of the car to the police and how it came to be in your hands. It might mean you are out the money OR it might mean the original owner (more likely an insurance company) might offer to sell it to you rather than again move the car back to where you got it. The not so smart move would involve....well, perhaps I should not give THAT advice!
