No, you cannot go and register a car that is salvage. The vehicle would need to have a salvage inspection first. Unless you have done one of these before, I advise to walk away from the vehicle. Your basically buying a paper weight until the whole process is complete. The car would have to be absolutely perfect to pass, including not having a drop of oil anywhere…

So making an agreement to purchase contingent on the car passing salvage inspection is the way to do this.

Could be, but if the seller was confident it would pass easily they would almost certainly get a far higher price running it through and selling it after.
The poster above isn't kidding, I've had the DMV reject a car for a leaky seal that had nothing to do with the damage or repair. It's a nightmare.

I don’t disagree.

The seller would have done it if it was that easy. If your getting a “great” deal, thats why.
