Yes, 21st Century Insurance covers formerly salvage-titled vehicles. If the car was rebuilt and inspected after being salvaged, 21st Century Insurance offers full coverage insurance through their partner, Bristol West. You cannot get coverage from any reputable insurer for a car currently holding a salvage title, however, as such vehicles are illegal to drive.

A car is given a salvage title when an insurance company declares it a total loss, meaning that it is unable to be repaired or the cost of repairs exceeds the vehicle's value. If the car is later repaired and deemed safe by an inspection, the salvage title will be replaced with a rebuilt title. After that, you can insure the car with 21st Century Insurance.
