is there anything i should look for besides rust and hackjob repairs? they say they priced it cheap because it doesnt have a title. thanks for any advice. steve |

QUOTE That alone seems like a huge red flag to me. At the very least I would get the VIN and check it with the DMV to verify the seller is the owner of record. If not, you'll probably have significant problems yourself getting a title for the car. If the person you are buying it from is actually the owner of record they should be able to get a replacement title for the car. Of course, YMMV on a state-by-state basis. Amen. There was an article in the SF Chron last week where a guy who got his 50ish T-bird stolen, got it back in cherry condition after a lady in SoCal bought it off of eBay and tried to register it. It was in Ohio. There was no connection to it being stolen until it came back to CA. Be cautious or skeptical, or don't pay until its clear titled to you (hold back the funds). |
