If the car doesnt have a totaled title you should be fine. Call your local dmv and find out has each state varies but in cali almost all hondas are salvaged literally from theft or accidents

I know in MN, as in most states, there are ways to get a normal title on a car. Just includes inspections, paperwork ect.

I thought about doing it with an olds that I had totalled. Didn't seem worth it, I found a buyer earlier.

WA is the same way, you just need to get the car inspected. Here its like a 50 dollar fee, plus like a 5 dollars paperwork charge. My buddy and I had to do this for his old school BMW after he bought it back from the insurance company.

cool, I just checked...apparently in MD you need to have the car pass inspection by the state troopers, than have it pass normal safety inspection and then you go through the normal titling process. The car I'm trying to do this on is a Colt GT Turbo(4G61??), a pretty nice find... its in good condition, just has the salvage title.
