Certainly.

Yes but threaten to report them to you state attorney general's office first - that'll get em moving in the right direction! But if you like the car and it looks and runs good know that it's worth roughly 40% less than a comparable clean titled car so you can also demand a partial refund and keep the car.

Lesson: always run a Carfax when buying used cars and if the car is titled locally, call the DMV up with the VIN or title number and have them run a check on the title since there can be lag time once a car is totaled and ultimately reported to state agencies. And always get a prepurchase inspection on any used car you buy!

You cant sell the vehicle without titling it in your name first unless you are selling it to a salvage yard or for scrap metal. The person buying it wont be able to get a title for it if you dont title it first.


Is it legal to sell a salvage car without telling it to the buyer?

Depending on the state the answer is no. If you are in CA, AZ, CO, NY I know you must disclose that the vehicle has a salvage title. As a private seller you are selling the car as-is but if your car was recently totaled/salvaged but you sold the car with the old clean title, that would be unethical. If I purchased the car from you and later could prove you knew of the salvage title I would certainly sue you and would probably win! What about a if someone sell me a "junk title" car without telling me, and I can show that they knew about it ?

If you buy a salvage vehicle with no title and repair it how do you get a title?

When you bought the salvage, the junk yard should've given you a 'salvage' title. You don't buy cars without getting a title. Talk to your state DMV and hopefully it's not stolen! Good luck.
