SCDMV Form S-2. Owner's Rebuilder's Affidavit

SCDMV Form S-2, known as the Owner's Rebuilder's Affidavit, is used by individuals who have rebuilt a salvage vehicle in South Carolina. The purpose of this form is to declare that the vehicle has been rebuilt in accordance with the state's regulations and is now safe for operation.

The form consists of several sections that require detailed information about the vehicle, including its make, model, year, and VIN number. The affidavit also requires the owner to provide information about the parts used in the rebuilding process, as well as their source and cost.

It is important for the owner to carefully fill out all the required fields in the form, ensuring that accurate and complete information is provided. This form is typically submitted to the South Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV) along with other required documentation, such as photographs and receipts.

An example of when this form is needed is when an individual purchases a salvage vehicle and decides to rebuild it. After completing the necessary repairs and modifications, the owner must submit this form to the SCDMV to certify that the vehicle meets the state's safety requirements.

A related form is the SCDMV Form S-3, which is the application for a rebuilt vehicle title. While the Owner's Rebuilder's Affidavit focuses on the declaration of rebuilding, the S-3 form is used to obtain a new title for the rebuilt vehicle. Both forms are important for individuals who have rebuilt salvage vehicles and need to register and title them in South Carolina.
