Should I buy it? How do you go about getting a title for an abondoned vehicle? Should I run away or part it out?

i was gonna buy an old short school bus for tailgating, before the football season started. i found a bus that had no title. if i remember correctly, the person who's possession it is in now has to apply for a title (costs 50 bucks, or something like that). i could be wrong though... but i think that was about it.

Well I bought it without a title because it was so cheap. Not sure yet whats going to happen with it. I am going to see if a title can be had for it and go from there. Will get pics soon Its a 2001 edge ext cab 2wd. 3.0 engine automatic. don't evn know yet the condition of the motor & trans, body has a few dings and seat is ripped. Exterior is white interior is grey I think.
