I was going to pick up a 91' Mustang this weekend to use as a donor but it currently has a salvage title. Just really looking to pull the wiring, rear-end and motor for the build.
It dawned on me there might be an issue insofar as being able to transfer title cleanly and whether or not it has to pass smog etc.
I don't know if the tags are current, guess I need to check on that but assuming they are...
does the car have to be running in order to transfer the title?
can it be put directly into non-op status?
does a new smog test need to be done? heard there was some new req that the current owner has to smog the vehicle before sale, is this true?
any other issues you guys might be aware of re: using a salvage title vehicle...
thanks!!!
