The best thing to do when buying a used car is to run a Carfax or, if the car is titled to the state you live in call the DMV with the VIN or title number. There are ways to hide a salvage title from state to state so do the legwork! If you still like the car and are pretty sure it has a salvage title it may still be an ok car, especially if it's older since it doesn't take much more than cosmetic damage to total an older car. Just have a good pre-purchase inspection and don't pay more than 60% of the value of a comparable car with a clean title.

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.
