Can you insure a vehicle with a salvaged title?

[Edit]

Answer

Yes, you can certainly get liability on the vehicle, but comprehenisve and collision may not be a very good value since the insurance company will probably not want to pay out much in the event of another collision. In fact, they may refuse to allow comp and collison on a salvaged title.

Answer

You may have to make a few phone calls but you should be able to find satisfactory coverage.

Answer

We do all of the time, howwever we are very carefull about not paying for the same damage twice. We would not recommend covering the car for comp or collison due to those coverages having been maxxed out. We would also want the state to inspect the vehicle to be certain it was road-worthy. We then tell our clients that should they choose to repair the car to bring us the documentation so that we can prove to the underwriters that all repairs have been made. Otherwise liability only is still available.
