Salvage Vehicles

Repair and Titling Rebuilt Vehicle: 1. Repair does not include cosmetic repairs, such as surface scratches or blemishes to the painted finish, key dings, and minor dents and scrapes to minor component parts when such are documented by color photographs as set out in paragraph 2 below, whether the current title is “Salvage” or has been reassigned to a rebuilder by the insurer. 2. The rebuilder must include with every Application for Inspection of a Salvage/Rebuilt Vehicle form a minimum of four (4) color photographs of the vehicle in its unrepaired condition. The photographs must be submitted with the rebuilder’s application so that they are available to the Department of Public Safety inspector at the time of the inspection. The photographs must be made as follows: one (1) from each of four (4) different angles looking from a fender on a line diagonally to the fender on the opposite side and end of the vehicle. The photographs must be taken from a distance of not more than six (6) feet from the vehicle and clearly show the back or front, side and top of the vehicle from each angle. The rebuilder may include additional photographs that the rebuilder deems necessary to show other areas of concern. 3. If the photographs do not clearly show prior existing damage as claimed, repair of such damage will be counted as one (1) component part for each such part(s) so repaired.
