No title scares me off. I would hate to buy it fix it and get it the way I want only for the original owner to show up and collect it and my but end up in jail for grand theft auto. If I did consider buying it I would be doing a title search at the DMV and find out who the previoius titled owner was and tell them you are cionsidering buying it and would like to get the title
I bought a willy heep one time this way in another state I went thru the hassle just because I wanted the jeep (what was I thinking?).
Just my 2 cents
