The guy who gave the car to me is a pretty close friend. So can I just have him write me up a bill of sale, we both sign it and show em the keys and that should be enough correct?

The car was last titled in '97 I believe, but the car has gone through alot of people since then that have never once titled it. So we're really not sure who the legal last owner of the car is.

I just know it's in my possession and I'd like to look into getting a title for it. I have the keys and I can have a bill of sale from my friend and that's about it. Well, I can also put the vehicle under my insurance policy also if that'll help get a title for it. I'm not so much worried about a tag at the moment since it's just sitting in a garage. Just want it for when I go & sell it.
