Welcome back to the site, spread the word apachepopups.net is back for all to enjoy.
I say spare yourself the trouble, don't buy anything that doesn't have a title. It's to much a pain trying to get it titled.
Another option, with a willing seller's cooperation, is get a VIN, Serial, or whatever number is available, then see if the owner would be willing to contact the State's DMV and see who currently has the title. Then the previous owner, if willing, can be supportive in helping the current owner apply for a lost title. Most owners won't do it, and it is a hassle.I did it in MO with a boat motor once and it went well.Sometimes buyers purchase an item and don't want to title it to avoid taxes, etc. Obviously this causes a problem down the line.I agree with Greg, it isn't worth the hassle, unless you have a good deal going on a roamer or a camper you really want.Randy
