It depends how old the car is. If it's less than 3 yrs old I would raise a stink. I am assuming you mean trim and such, not mechanical parts.

The have companies that will purchase damaged items of personal property or just about anything. They are in the business of repairing items are reselling them. The insurance company has lists of what they can normally sell damaged items for and this will result in a valuation.
Answer: Salvage titles come from the insurance companies. Once an insurance company "totals" a vehicle, it becomes "salvaged". Take the ID number to your insurance company and have them run it to see if it is "insurable", best & quickest way and its free.
can be done by insurance company at time it is totaled out by them
I can't determine if you are asking about Hartford City or the insurance company. Insurance company's want maximum return on salvage so it goes to the highest bidder rather than sold to a salvage yard for what they pay.
i was recently involved in a minor car accident. The body shop stated the car was not ready because they were waiting on the used body parts from the salvage company. I called my insurance company they told me this was a common practice to use used parts. Is this a common practise.
Either the cars owner or the insurance company who paid for the totaled vehicle
If you wreck your vehicle, the insurance company pays you off and you give them the title for the vehicle. The insurance company then turns around and sends the vehicle to an auction (usually for dealers and wholesalers only) and sell it. Most of the time a salvage company will buy the car for parts and the insurance company can recoup some of their money.
it just means that said vehicle has been damaged and an insurance company has considered it to be damaged beyond its value. if it is a "rebuilt" salvage title then it can be used as any other vehicle on the road, it just may effect the cost of insurance.
In the event of a insured total loss, the insurance compnay, not you, has the rights to the parts. This is called salvage rights.
You must turn in keys and title to the insurance company once they have paid you for the loss - regardless of the condition of the vehicle. It is your choice to accept or not the settlement.
Generally NO, as in effect when settling with you, the insurance company is buying the car from you. Therefore, the car belongs to the company. If you still want the car, many insurance companys will allow you to buy the car back at the "salvage value."
