I guess I disagree. I mean, yes don't buy a stolen vehicle, but... My family has bought 2 trucks without clear titles. It's a pain, but it doesn't necessarily mean that they're stolen.
Mine was already filled in on the back, and then re-sold without getting a clear title first. Basically it's just extra paperwork at the DMV - my dad got it titled legally over 5 years ago, and since transferred it over to me. Neither of us went to jail.
FIL has a 1981 Chevy he bought without a title, they made him fill out some paperworks at the DMV and a Sherriff had to verify the VIN before they issued a title, and something about buying insurance against repossession? Anyway, he has a clear title on it now too.
