Don't get me wrong ... I applaud your gesture... I just remember that once I did save the body number/tag & title years ago on an '70 MGB that I scrapped ..with a view to rebuilding a shell sometime....but had assumed that it wasn't worth doing anymore now the No. is stamped on the body somewhere. I think the real point here is that however buys the bus for $450 w/o title needs to make sure seller has legal ownership!
