"Cleaned" is not quite the correct word since the salvage history will
always be there for anyone with the foresight to run a Carfax.

Additionally, you could be looking at trouble (law suit) if the buyer ended
up registering the vehicle back in the state where it was originally
salvaged.  That type of info is kept in the system for at least 5 years here
in Kah-lee-forn-ee-ah.

Cheers,

Jeff

Some states simply don't issue salvage titles.  A vehicle, with a
salvage title, reregistered in such a state gets "Cleaned" whether that
was the intent or not.
