Titles are not hard to get. Id grab it before some demo derby knuckle dragger gets it. Cool color combo. It just needs some love, another drivers door, and windshield.
I have personally done 2 missing lost titles in texas. Both where owner was deceased or the paper trail to find them was non existant. You need a bill of sale signed and dated with the current seller and your signatures, along with a picture of the vin and current condition pix of the car. Dmv runs it,. As long as its clean, no lein, not stolen you go to a notary with your bill of sale, and dmv title application paperwork, get a bond, and back to dmv, to pay sales tax and get your new title. Bond automatically drops off after 3 years, and your good to go. You can legally drive and even sell the vehicle with the bond on it. It continues to count down from day bond was put on vehicle until time is up for old owner to claim it. This can all be done in a few hours in one day.
