Salvage Title Problems
Hey everyone I just purchased a car from e-bay that had to be picked up in NY. It has a NJ Salvage Title. When I tried to get tags in Alabama I was told that I'd have to become a Dealer first. That has a great deal of expense to become a dealer/rebuilder just to get tags so that's out of the question. I was just wondering if any of you have any dealings with a salvage title before and how you may have resolved the problem?

Wow, does anyone know if the same applies in Massachusetts? I could be purchasing a salvage vehicle in the near future from another state, with the intention of getting a rebuilt title after repairs.

I want to thank all of y'all for the responses, I can use all the help I can get. Does anyone have a dealer friend I could go too?

This is what i do for a living. In ct the dmv does the inspection for you if you need the inspection done and they are telling u a dealer or repair shop can do it just bring the car to a shop if it can pass and have them register it. If it cant pass find a way to get a shop to sign off on it. Here we have to show the dmv inspectors the car. Your lucky you dont. Youll just have to do a little foot work but you dont need to become a dealer.

Do you have to be a resident of Ct to do this? and what does it cost there?

The fee in ct is $88 and I believe all you need to prove residence in ct is a piece of postmarked mail with a ct adress.
Vermont is the easiest state I know of to register vehicle. You dont even have to be a resident.
