The question I have is, why did you offer this guy anything if you don't even know you want it?

Keys are easy enough. Don't know about title where you are. Hard to tell from those small photos but the body appears to be in good shape. Guess it depends on what your welder is worth.

I'd check the VIN number with the local DMV first. In case it's stolen or something.

If the body is as clean as it appears to be and the title situation checks out ok i.e. not stolen, save another old dentside and trade up.
