How could any of these stolen claims even still stand...?

National, International, and all state laws, have statute of limitations for stolen vehicles of only seven years... After that time limit, a vehicle can turn up stolen, and a title can still be acquired by whom ever owns it at the time.

Someone purchased the vehicle 35 years after it was stolen, they must have gotten it with some sort of title...Not that it would even be required anymore anyways by that point. After ten years, you can buy anything you want without a title, and use only a bill of sale for the purchase. Then the DMV will make a new title for said vehicle. A 35 year old vehicle, shouldn't even have raised an eyebrow, and definately should not have been confiscated or impounded....
