Title situation. help?

So I recently bought an s13 hatch with a salvage non-rebuildable title. From my understanding I can't legally register the car. My issue is that the car is in perfect shape and looks like it's never been in a wreck or even had body work done on it. Is there somehow I can get the car inspected to prove that it's in good shape and attain a normal title?

Also, the previous owner, well a few owners ago, bought my car along with another one at the same time. Both cars were identical. The other car was totaled with a CLEAN title. I'm thinking the cars got mixed up somehow when the insurance company totaled the car out. The other car is long gone to the scrapyard but I still have the title to it. Can I use this to my advantage somehow?

This is in Florida by the way. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Check vin numbers and yes you can get it inspected. Check with the BMV and schedule and appointment and get a list of items that have to be working on the car to get it back on the road.
