I don't believe that I have ever heard of such a thing as an 'abandoned' title. If you are asking about getting possession of an abandoned vehicle - try going to the DMV (or your local law enforcement agency) and running the VIN (serial) number of the car into the state system. If it was ever registered it should come up in the system with the information on the last known owner - then you can go from there in contacting them and gaining control of the vehicle.
A title is not necessary for a car of that age. Contact your local State DMV title department for abandonment issues and procedures vary from state to state.
hot wire it and drive it without a title, that would be great.... partially answered my question, the car is not in canada.... its in new york
Fill out a lost title application at your local DMV

A bill of sale for most states should allow you to drive the vehicle to and from the DMV - if the registration is current you can chance driving the vehicle around until you get new plates in your name - if the vehicle is already in your name file for a duplicate title - if the vehicle is not in your name but was abandoned - file for an abaondned title and the DMV will send a letter to the last known owners.

If you have an abandoned vehicle on your property with a signed title and want to get rid of it, you can typically contact your local Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) or equivalent authority to report the vehicle. They may provide guidance on how to officially transfer ownership or dispose of the vehicle. You can also consider contacting a junk car removal service, which often picks up abandoned vehicles for free or for a small fee. Be sure to document the process to avoid any potential legal issues.
Not unless your name is on the title. Possession of the title does not mean you own the vehicle.
There are steps to take to that will allow you to file for a title for an abandoned vehicle. First request registration information from the DMV. Next fill out and submit a form declaring your intent to conduct a lien sale. On the sale date, make the vehicle available for inspection at least one hour prior to the sale. If you get no buyer, claim the car for yourself. Submit a form certifying that you have claimed the vehicle.
