Vehicle Restoration Permit

Vehicle Restoration

The City requires an individual to obtain a vehicle restoration permit if they own a vehicle that has been declared a public nuisance/junk vehicle and meets any of the following categories:


  • Is 3 years old or older
  • Is without a valid current registration plate
  • Is apparently inoperable, has a fair market value equal only to the scrap in it, or is extensively damaged- broken windows, missing wheels, tires, motor, or transmission.

An application for a vehicle restoration permit can be obtained online or in person, and must be submitted along with a $25 application fee to the Finance Department. Vehicle restoration permits are valid for 60 days and are non-renewable. 

Payment can be made in person with cash, check, money order, Visa, MasterCard, or Discover Card. If the application is mailed, a check or money order must be included.Vehicle Restoration Permit ApplicationCamas Municipal Code 8.08.110
