Solved a few posts up. I did call, and it won’t be a problem, the guy was really cool on the phone, and totally understood the situation. They are more pricks for cars that have not been repaired yet, but since this was rebuilt in 1999 in Ohio, they just want to verify the title is indeed for this car.

I think so, but I know it was in the thunderbird turbo coupes for sure (at least I think for sure, hah). I’m very comfortable with megasquirt, and I’m a wiz with wiring and finishing details, so it should definitely keep me occupied since I won’t be wrenching on my TDI that much!

I see what’s happening here…

I buy an evo, mark buys an evo.  
I buy a bmw, mark buys a bmw  
I buy a turbo A3, mark buys a turbo VW on the same platform  
I buy an older swapped E30, mark buys a…

If you still have salvage title questions I’d recommend calling (716) 876-0421 and ask for Ilya. Tell him Johnny referred you. He buys and repairs salvage cars from Iaai and Copart all the time so he will know a lot of what the process is like etc. and what you have to do in certain cases.
