Might you suggest removing the aluminum plate covering the Kirkham number (assuming they did not grind the Kirkham number off).

The issue with titling the car overseas depends on the local providential government body. Each town has it's own rules and regulations in areas like Switzerland, Austria, certain parts of Spain (Madrid for example). One local rule does not supersede another. In this case the owner (OP) has a fraudulent (IE: not a real title, but something conjured up from a LaserJet printer) California title, so technically he has no ownership papers to prove he actually owns what he is in possession of.
As for the original poster attempting to circumnavigate his local laws by using said fraudulent paperwork, that is the risk alone he will have to decide to take and potentially lose the car to government inpoundment, forfeiture , and destruction. Sounds almost impossible, ask Mr Muck, I'm sure he can fill you in on at least one or two that have been crushed.

PS: No beef with anyone, just hate for anyone to get sucked in to such an issue years down the road by reading this thread.
