Selling Your Salvage Car
There is a lot of misunderstanding around selling salvage title cars and owning them. Can you drive a car with a salvage title? A salvage car means that the vehicle is badly damaged, usually after an auto accident. It can be physical or legal, exceeding the value of the car. The insurance companies also deem the cost to repair the vehicle would be higher than its value.
It’s important to know that once a car’s branding is salvaged, it can never have a clean title again. Whether or not you buy a car with a salvage title, is entirely up to the individual. Listed below are a few different kinds of car titles. They have their own rules and regulations.
Clean/Clear Title
The easiest kind of car title to deal with is a clean title, or clear title depending on who you are talking to and where you live. Does clean title just mean no accidents? Yes! A clean title means that the car has not been in any major accidents, has never been stolen, and doesn’t need any major repairs to keep the car from being functional. This is the most desirable car title because it ensures that the car is in proper driving condition, providing peace of mind to potential car buyers.Rebuilt Title
There are some salvage title car owners who love a car so much that they will rebuild it to its original origins. These cars start out as salvage titles, can be rebuilt to pass inspections and rebranded as a rebuilt title.Salvage Title

Junk Title and Dismantled Title
A vehicle with junk branding is completely undriveable and unsafe to be on public roads. It’s only used as scrap or parts. What about a junk title vs a salvage title? Junk titles are not repairable, where salvage title vehicles can go through rebranding and become a rebuilt title once repaired to pass multiple inspections. Junk titles are very similar to a dismantled title except that a vehicle with a dismantled title can only be used for parts.Who Buys Salvage Cars?
