Pink slips arrive for distraught buyers

Titles for cars bought at Monterey Motors in San Luis Obispo over the past few months have started arriving in the mail.

"The pink slip showed up in the mail today," Ron Garcia said last week. "What a relief."

Garcia's girlfriend, Sandra Lee, was one of about two dozen people who had not been able to register their cars because Monterey Motors did not provide them with the title.

Anyone who hasn't yet received a title for a car bought at the now-defunct dealer should have them by the end of the week, as an agreement has been reached with the auto companies that had been holding the titles, according to an attorney for the dealership's owner.

The problem arose last year when dealership owner Ron Curtis had a falling out with his business partners, attorney Dave Hurst said.
