If you are also in NC, I would contact NC DMV to see what you can do to get the title. If you are in a different state, then you will have to contact NC DMV to see what you have to do to get a duplicate title.

If she has passed away, you will need to contact a family member or the executor of the will and they will be able to help you and get a duplicate title.

it's not an abandonned car, you bought it from the previous owner, so both parties were in agreement of the car's ownership. the only thing you can possibly do at this point is FIND the previous owner and have her file for a lost title and then re-sign it over to you.Bought car from lady in north carolina. she signed the title, I lost it before i could file it. ?
Some states require the seller to fill out a paper that says in effect...... I sold my car to Mr Smith on Jan. 15, 2008. etc, etc. If NC is such a state, they should have that paper on file. Find out and go from there. The selling lady may then be able to help you get a title
