as of july 1st, 2004 you must be a licensed used car dealer (or posses a used car reconditioning license with the state of GA) in order to get a vehicle inspected. in order to get a clear title on a salvage vehicle all damaged parts have to be fixed/replaced, car cannot be painted (it can be primed). all receipts of purchased parts have to included as well as at least 3 pictures of the vehicle showing all damaged parts. Cars cannot be driven to inspection stations, they must be towed. inspection station will check the vehicle, will plug it to the OBD2 reader and ABS computer. No engine code or abs/SRS lights can be on or else the car will fail.

all together with towing and inspection charges it takes about 450-500 bucks just to clean the title.
