    So you don't even know if he is still there.

    I would attempt to find some sort of contact information for him, whether land line, mailing address, or something. And once you make contact with him, arrange to send him the Affidavit of Correction, with a SASE, etc. The problem is that you cannot make him send it back to you. On the other hand, a 20 hour round-trip is going to cost you an arm and a leg. It would be better to talk to him first.

    Do you know anyone there?

    I hate to tell you I told you so, but... I told you so.

    If I were you, I would contact the Florida DMV, talk to someone about your problem, and find out what can be done in a case such as yours in which the previous owner gave you a bill of sale and has now disappeared.

    My concern is that you didn't take the initial advice when it was given to you. Let's try it again - do what "AK" says this time.
