Re: salvage title...
they should have destroyed the original title. there is a company (might be a the dmv, cant remember, that you must call before you begin repairs. they will note everything that is wrong with the vehicle and what needs to be fixed. after these things are repaired, they will come out again and reinspect the vehicle and issue you a salvage title, or a rebuilt title, depending on the severity of the damage. if the car is past a certain percentage of damage,(i.e-80%) it can never be registered in the united states again.

Re: salvage title...
Did you turn over your title to the insurance company. Then buy the car back? Or did you take the money and run? Also did the insurance company actually "Total" your car?

Re: salvage title...
i think we turned over the title to the insurance company then bought the car back... and yea...they gave us money for the car so i guess they totaled the car...but it was only cosmetic damage...like the front bumper and whatnot...

Re: salvage title...
Taken from the DMV website for VA, hope it helps--Repaired/Rebuilt Vehicle Examinations
Before DMV issues a vehicle title for a repaired or rebuilt salvage vehicle, a DMV special agent must conduct an anti-theft examination. In order for an examination to be scheduled, the requestor must contact the appropriate DMV Law Enforcement Services District Office to schedule an examination. Such inspections can only be done if the repairs were performed in Virginia. When the examination is completed, the requestor must submit the following to DMV:
Salvage Certificate
Original LES 022A Form (Request for Examination of Repaired or Rebuilt Salvage Vehicle)
Original LES 022B Form (Report of Examination of Repaired or Rebuilt Salvage Vehicle) indicating approved examination and whether or not branding is required. This form is completed by the DMV special agent who conducts the exam.
$125.00 Examination Fee
$10.00 Substitute title fee
The percentage of damage listed on the original salvage record will determine if there is to be a brand noted on the new title.
If the vehicle record indicated the damage as 75 percent or less, DMV will issue a certificate of title with the brand "REPAIRED" printed on it. This brand is permanent and will be carried forward for each title issued for the life of the vehicle. There is no requirement for additional notification to a new purchaser.
If the vehicle record indicated the damage to be between 76 percent and 90 percent, DMV will issue a certificate of title with the brand "REBUILT" printed on it. This brand is permanent and will be carried forward for each title issued for the life of the vehicle. Note: Each new purchaser must receive the title and a notification form (VSA59) "REBUILT SALVAGE VEHICLE DISCLOSURE STATEMENT."

Re: salvage title...
part the car or use it for track, its too much work, and you've begun repairs before the inspection. do not try to sell it without a title...

Re: salvage title...
Chris is correct. Call DMV have them look for any attachments to your title. "Salvage", "Salvage Rebuildable" or "Salvage Non-Rebuildable" The Non-Rebuildable is the one you have to worry about.
