On the salvage title... I guess a friend of mine got screwed then, which is entirely possible.

He bought a car not knowing it was salvage, put full coverage on it. When the insurance company found out (before my friend did), they would only let him put liability coverage on the car.



That would be true if your friend didn't take the car to be inspected by an insurance agent, have an appraisal done, or have the repairs done at a reputable body shop. If nobody can prove that it was fixed to prior condition, liability is all that can be offered for insurance.

Heck, my '86 Trans Am could be totaled by having a light tap on the nose or tail simply because it would cost more to fix the car than the car is worth to replace the whole thing. Anymore, totalling a car is about funds, not unfixable damage like it used to be.
