Salvage / Rebuilt title

[3MAX]

Question on a Blazer with a Salvage title in its history. The truck has been through a complete frame-off build, with a “new” frame being used. No rust and it’s in good shape. It’s got about 45k miles on it since the rebuild. Looking at the title history, it was Salvaged in 1997, but somehow now has a “clean” title, not a rebuilt title. How much does the salvage effect the value, if any? This probably a $25-$30k truck otherwise.

In some states once it's salvage it can't be cleared like here in CA
It affects newer cars more than older ones because the old ones have their value higher in spite of age and condition
