Maryland as well as many other states does have a "Salvage Title", when a
car has be totaled-out by a insurance company, the reassignment on the new
title will be "Salvage" where the previous title # would normanlly be, if
you total your own car and want to buy it back from your insurer, you can
but, with a "salvage title" reissued, "Every used parts dealer/junk
yard/salvage yard "MUST" have a title for "Every" vechicle on his property.
Maryland as well as many other states also have a dealers license for
"Salvage Dealer" the same as a license for used car dealer. Many salvage
yards, auction yards, or other business places that deal in these cars also
have ways of having a salvage title washed-out and having another title
issued through another state without the "salvage" designation. The largest
"salvage' auction is held weekly in Brandywine on route 301, and yes you
have to have a dealers lincense to buy at these auctions, but not from a
junk yard, the yard David dealt with just wanted to part out the car would
be my guess. "FT"
