if you dont turn the title over to insurance and the tow yard gets the job of disposing the car, you can usually buy the car back easily and youll still have a clean title.
if it does become a salvage title, getting it street legal here in NJ is easy. i bought a salvage motorcycle a few years back and went through the whole process first hand. No trouble at all, worst part was waiting for the scheaduled inspection date at morristown.
DO NOT FIX IT TO RE-SELL. (fix for yourself is fine) fixing it with plans to just seell it is a huge waste of money. to fix it enough and properly it will cost more than you think and you will not be able to sell it for nearly what you want. take the 4k, sell the car AS-IS and be done with it.
