She called the state today ... they told her once the title is changed to salvage its not supposed to be driven until its repaired and inspected. They told her the car couldnt be insured or buy a tag for it.
From the way yall have spoken seems like they just "slip thru" and no one notices it, or flags them in the states system and as long as you dont let the tag or insurance expire it just rocks on.

I told her to go ahead and tell insurance she wanted to keep the vehicle. We will roll the dice and see how it plays out. I can buy a whole same color parts car for $600 and rob the one door needed off fit and sell it or scrap it and be $ ahead.


Ethical behavior is doing the right thing when no one else is watching - even when doing the wrong thing is legal. Aldo Leopold .. (except when it comes to trailer tags)
