Advice on property ownership.

Hi,

My name is Kevin Ange and Im from North Carolina. Sorry to say that I got the news that my father passes away during my tour in Iraq on New years day. Even more sorry to be having to ask legal questions already but I have to protect my mother. My fathers dad started a business in 1965 called Urban disposal. After my fathers father ran into health problems my dad has ran that business as well as his for over 20 years. together they agreed to buy 300,000 dollar motorhome, and it is all in my grandfathers name.However my father made all of the payments on it and my mother can verify every one of them. My dads fatehr passed away over 8 years ago and one of the things my dad talked to him about was putting the motorhome in his name so we can avoid all of these problems, my grandad told my father that he would take care of it but never did. Now there are only 20,000 dollars left to pay on the motorhome and my grandmother is trying to take it from us even tho she has had nothing to do with it for all of those years. My question is, is there anything at all we can do to avoid this or make her reimburse the money my family paid for the motorhome? Any advice would be really helpful.

NOpe. The motorhome should have gone through probate when granddad died. If there was a will and he left it to your dad then it would be your dad's. NO will, then it is grandma's most likely. So was there a will?
