I have 2 salvage title cars i fixed myself. 93 Honda del sol with 57K now has 180K. And my 98 CSVT which was a theft recovery car from CT. I've never had any problems here in WI with rebuilding cars. yeah sometimes you don't get the resale but not always is that true. I know of a few tours,intergra type R's that have been rebuilt and sold at or above fair market value.
