The title means that the car was/is at the stage that it was totaled. The rest stands for restoration (could be expensive) or salvage (scrap out for parts). Most people will not offer you the value of the car if you go to sell it. The rest/salvage title follows the car and the next owner knows that at least at one time it was a basket case

It means it was rescued from being destroyed in a salvage yard. rest salvage= restored salvage. Probable was totaled or had a lot of damage at some point.

It means the car was involved in an accident and it was declared totaled by the insurance company, so now, insurance companies will not insure the car because it was already declared totaled.

Restored from salvage.
It just means (normally) that it is a classic car that has been rebuilt enough to have lost any of it's original value.
