How much does it cost to insure a car with a salvage title?
I've rebuilt a car that previously had a salvage title, and it just passed safety inspections. However, I've heard that insuring a salvage title car is difficult. I've worked really hard at restoring it to its former glory—so is there any way to get insurance for it? And how much will it cost?
