    My first M923a1 - no title

    Get a refund fast, in most states it is illegal to sell a motor vehicle without a title, this varys state to state and depends on age. Usually if you sell more than five vehicles a year ( In PA ) you are a dealer and have restrictions on your dealings. :mad:

    Ran when parked or I'm going to restore them one day

    That's one of the major problems, if you run a salvage yard and see a skinny dirty no teeth crack head come in with 80 pounds of brass radiator. You as a responsible business owner should call the cops and let this druggy explain where they got it from. But NOOOOO, They just care about the money...
