switching salvage title to clear title

Felony......... Only if it's done illegal, I don't know how that would be possible.. even in California ..... DON'T MISUNDERSTAND ME, It's the DMV in your state that takes the salvage, reconstructed, or R title stamp off of the title, if that's what your state laws dictates to be done ,,,, YOU WON"T HAVE A CHOICE, But like I stated before, every state has different rules, and if they don't allow it to be removed, it won't/can't be removed. Some do and some don't..That's all I'm saying here. There's nothing illegal about it , IF YOU FOLLOW YOUR STATE RULES.......:-D:-D:-D Crackedback is right about calling your state DMV, they'll tell you if your state removes these things or not. Some do, and some states don't. I have personally done this several times with salvaged vehicles in my state 6-7 years ago. Nothing illegal about doing what your state allows.

In CA you wash it, it's a felony! A kid that lived near me went to the big house for 3 years for doing it.

There was a big stink in this state about 10-15 years ago with cars being bought at salvage auctions and titles getting washed. Some pretty stringent laws were passed.

The reason some cars end up as a salvage around here is, anytime the insurance pays off/totals a vehicle, it gets branded. Even if it needs nothing but a paint job. Pretty stupid when running driving cars are branded the same as a car that is stripped to the bone or torched.

Do call the MVD in AZ to find out what you can do. You definitely don't want to run afoul of them as they can be the nastiest SOB's you've ever run about against.
