It is super hard to get a title for a vehicle here in WV if it has never been put in your name.
It can be done, but it will be issued a WV vin number.
Scrap yards will not even take a car without a title, when the price of junk was high a few years ago, low-lifes were taking broke down cars from along side the road, and hauling them in for scrap.
After an alarming number of cars were coming up stolen, the state required any car being sold for scrap metal have a title.
