For a bonded title:
Lost title papers (unknown owner): If you are in possession of a vehicle and all logical methods have failed to find either its paperwork or its previous owner, you may apply for a bonded title. This is a title that requires that you purchase a bond to potentially reimburse a legitimate owner if and when he or she shows up to claim the vehicle. In this situation, you will also have to fill out the Statement of Fact supplement (Form 130-SOF) in addition to the title application (Form 130-U). After three years of holding a bonded title, a regular title can then be issued to you.

If its in your name go to your regional resgriation office and pay them 6 dollars and they will print it on the spot.
If its not in your name dont waste your time or money with a bonded title its trash. Use a title service like broadway ( I have used them it takes 3 months ) or its-titles ( used them also they took 10 days ). The prices were about 150 for each one.
