No title, no deal in my opinion. I just finished dealing with a similar situation in my state and spent two months dealing with getting it all straightened out. In Texas I understand that you can do something called bonding to get a car titled but it still costs some bucks and you have to wait a given amount of time before the title becomes clean. As a parts car I might get it with a notarized bill of sale but nothing more. Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
AZ has the same bonded title process... http://blog.suretysolutionsllc.com/suretynews/bonded-title-az There's always the story of the car that fires right up w a new battery and priming the carb... Never know! Running adds a few bucks. If I really wanted it, I would probably offer a grand as is... If I really wanted it... Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!

Why not just go out in the parking lot at the DMV, have the deceased sign the title and apply for a title in your friend name?
