What it does
Under current law, a “wrecked or salvage vehicle” is a damaged motor vehicle subject to registration for which the cost of repair exceeds percent of the fair market value of the vehicle. When a vehicle rebuilder or a person engaged in the business of buying, selling, or exchanging vehicles acquires a wrecked or salvage vehicle with a fair market value of $500 or more, the person is required to apply for a salvage certificate of title. This includes an educational institution; a licensed new motor vehicle dealer; a person engaged in the business of purchasing bodies, parts of bodies, frames, or component parts of vehicles for sale as scrap metal; a salvage pool; a licensed authorized vehicle recycler; or an insurer.
