If you mean totaled cars that have yet to be repaired, go to an auction or tow yard. If you mean a salvage car that has been reconstructed to roadworthiness, try Craigslist. There's lotsa salvage vehicles being sold there under the guise of being a clean titled car! But sometimes there's honest seller who are selling totaled/reconstructed cars for what they're worth, which is roughly 60% of the price of a comparable clean titled car.

What to do or should know when your auto insurance salvages a vehicle?
In the U.S., Auto Insurance companies do not salvage a vehicle. If the vehicle claim is paid out as a total loss it is sold or auctioned off to a salvage or a junk yard. The junk yard may crush the vehicle for scrap metal value or salvage parts from the vehicle or even to re-title the car on a salvage title but this is totally up to the salvage yard or whomever the yard then re-sells the vehicle too.
If a salvage yard owns a car is the title considered salvage?
Depends on the existing title, if the salvage company owns the vehicle and it does not have a salvage title then they would be just another owner like anyone else and this vehicle would have a clean title assuming that there are no lean holders. On the other hand if the vehicle in question has already received a salvage/non repairable or similar title then salvage/non repairable or similar title would follow the vehicle not a clean title.
