With that being the case, perhaps the best course of action would be to sue the person he acquired the car from as opposed to trying to sell the car?
Davide,

It appears likely this car was given a false paper trail in order to be admitted into the EU as an "oldtimer" that was previously registered and titled in the U.S. to avoid import, emissions and registration restrictions. Other than satisfying your curiosity, trying to track down who is responsible for the deed may not be the best use of your resources. You received something of value that appears to be not what it was represented. It's time to talk to an attorney and discuss your options of recovery from the person from whom you received the car.

Best of luck,
