Craig, Im not positive. The damage was all cosmetic, so by all means it shouldn't even have a mark on the title. But I don't know how all that title stuff really works so I suppose I'll see at some point. MaverickDan your suggestion sounds the most plausible to me, so Ill take a look this afternoon like I said. Stay tuned guys!
It was the starter solenoid! The shock from the accident must have jostled the battery, which yanked on its positive cable (and everything else bolted to the top post on the solenoid) down a little, so it was in constant contact with the smaller post below it. Problem solved, nearly done with repairs now
