Ohio must be waaay more easy on salvage titles than Florida. I just 
got a salvage title vehicle ready for road use simply by fixing the 
minor damage and paying $50 for an inspection by the highway patrol. 
That is how I get cheap winter cars here. All they inspect for here 
is that I didn't steal any of the parts I used to rebuild it, by 
providing receipts for new parts. They could care less about build 
quality or roadworthyness. So a salvage vehicle can NEVER be issued 
a rebuilt title in Florida? Maybe I should make Walt an offer and 
drag that car back to Ohio and retitle it if he has no luck. :)
