PA title is branded RECONSTRUCTED just from the frame being stretched, apparently. Thanks, PA. Going to get documentation on that and going to have to go through a NY salvage inspection and spend and extra $200 for the privilege. Joy.

I think that means I will need to have it outfitted with my camping gear pre-inspection as to not throw red flags about the registration class change. Just what I wanted to make my top priority. I guess I'll be back to looking for a 30/60 whatever day PA transit tag so I can get it home because I'm not going to be able to get NY plates on it until it goes through salvage inspection.

the salvage inspection station is on blossom rd by winton...
no way they will be able to do much with that truck other then look at it..

I had an integra with salvage title inspected in 2016, it was a 7 month wait...

[etk300ex]

hopefully its better now

[mr.mindless]

I'll have to check with Erik, I think after it passes safety they'll give you plates, just no title? I don't know.

[etk300ex]

It was a 7 month wait for the inspection itself

and also it was 2006, not 16, I'm getting old...

I fix a number of 907a vehicles, and the wait is still ridiculous.

I would expect 4 months from the moment you mail paperwork in..

[mr.mindless]

so do you get to drive it in between or does it have to sit? I see a check box for a NY trip permit to drive it to the inspection, nothing about use. I'm guessing it's stuck where it's at.

I can get a PA temp reg up the street, 60 days for $25.

You saw my post on Facebook.. The NYS paper plate comes with your actual appointment. So if you actually want to drive it around, get a PA temp tag.

Sorry to hear about the hassle..

Thanks for sharing the knowledge, josh!

are you sure that NYS will require a salvage inspection? ive heard of salved branded out of state titles being transferred to NYS with no issue, other than still says selvage.

i was under the impression the salve inspection really only applied to the 907a vehicles.

[etk300ex]

Yes.  My Integra had a salvage title from Florida.

[mr.mindless]

Documentation indicates that any out of state salvage titles absolutely require inspection. Whether PA “reconstructed” applies is the question. Main DMV customer service directed me to DMV Technical Assistance. I’m hoping that if I get an answer I like via phone, I can get it documented and locked in... seems unlikely.

the case that occured to me, was a 96 XJ where VA title was clean and no markings.  i did paper work at NY, when new title came it said "rebuilt" on NY title.  no delays, was just a surprise to me. 

[mr.mindless]

Technical assistance directed me to fast and salvage, where apparently only take calls on Wednesdays due to extreme backlog of paperwork
