Salvage title

If you're dealing with a salvage title vehicle, navigating the process can be complex. Visit www.cartitles.com to understand the requirements for obtaining a new salvage title in your name, which often includes a thorough vehicle inspection. Keep receipts for all major component parts installed, whether new from a dealer or used from a salvage yard, as they must be documented with the VIN of the source vehicle. Avoid attempting to "wash" the salvage title by transferring registration across states, as there's a national database that tracks these titles, leading to legal consequences. Note that a salvage title may eventually become a rebuilt title after inspection, but it will still carry specific markings. Be cautious: a certificate of destruction (CoD) means the vehicle can never be legally driven again, regardless of repairs or inspections. Understand these distinctions to protect your investment and comply with legal requirements.
