Wats up guys. well as i was getting home i was approached by some guy that was driving past and said if i wanted to buy a mustang 5.0, i said how much, he said well the reg owner just got sent to prison and they guys girlfriend is getting evicted and needs to get rid of car. I went to go look at car and looks like the top was ripped and as you can see on pik acid or thinner on paint but no hits. And the cobras on it are CLEAN, but all tires where slashed. So basically car has no pink slip or keys, the guy said that if i wanted it he can give it up for $400 Yup 2 zeros. Inter/ engine/ all looks good. What do you all recommend?

How can you legally own this car when the original owner is in prison? The owner, the name that is on the title can legally transfer ownership to you. Not his girlfriend or the guy you talked to can sign this car over to you. Buy it and good luck registering it, or better yet explain why you are in possession of it to the cops if it is listed as stolen from the owner. Also what do you think this guy is possibly going to do to you when he gets out of prison and finds out you ended up with his car?

There was a Simpson's episode where Homer buys Snake's car. Didn't go well for Homer. Sounds too good to be true. This wouldn't exactly be legal OR ethical.
