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!
