Really. Then I wonder why the title for the 1948 GMC my dad bought showed that the previous owner had a lien on it? He was a farmer. He only owned the truck since 1991. They do weird stuff as far as banks and financing go. I am sure he did this to depreciate it on his taxes, as he told me dad he only gave $1500 for it. Be careful with blanket generalizations. I will agree that in most cases,banks do not loan money on older vehicles, but there are exceptions.
