I bought a confiscated vehicle from a Gov. auction site that was sold with a SC county sheriffs bill of sale and a court order to sell the vehicle.

How difficult is it gonna be to get a title for it? And how should I go about it?

carry the paperwork to your local DMV for their advise.

If you have all of the correct and notarized paperwork it should not be a problem. You may need the supervisor at the DMV to handle it for you because it is not a normal titling process. I ran into a clerk issue at the DMV when I titled a reposessed vehicle, they did not know how to code it in their system.

How does the Capital One commmercial go? "What's in your wallet" I always say CASH...

I purchased a truck from DRMO years ago and they gave all the paperwork needed to register the vehicle. Government vehicles do not have titles but instead I got a type of "Bill Of Sale"... Since you purchased the vehicle from a sheriff's auction they should provide you all the needed paperwork to register the vehicle. Beware of paying back property taxes...

Make sure that you photocopy every document so that you will have something to go on if the "system" loses any of your documents.

I've bought vehicles from government auctions before. One from the local police dept. (one of their old patrol bikes) and one from the US Govt. (Jeep Cherokee from the Army base salvage yard). They came with the appropriate paperwork to title them, no problem.
