I have title issues with one of my cars right now and they pretty much just turned there head and said 'so what'. In my case a letter was changed to a number, and a number was changed to a letter. I showed them several different pieces of evidence including factory info. as to why it could not be that way. All they said was the original issuing state must change it. That state is Maine and they do not have records for older cars. I have been tempted to contact one of the advertisers in Old Cars that say they will clean up title problems.
Get a Bonded Title. Go on line, Maryland lists everything you need to do. It’s not a big thing, this is done quite offen.
