I guess that California doesn't believe in recycling.
I once rebuilt a pickup truck in Connecticut that the Insurance Co. said
cost more to repair than the book value was. I did have to trailer it to the
MV Dept. and have it fully inspected. They thought that the horn wasn't loud
enough but I got a clean title anyway.

Volks,


In a word, NO.


Once a vehicle is branded salvage, junk or several other things like that it
will remain that.  The records are held by VIN so unless you can change the
VIN, a federal crime, then once branded is forever branded.


This is from the people who make such decisions at DMV.
