An "automobile dismantler" is any person not otherwise
expressly excluded by Section 221 who:
   (a) Is engaged in the business of buying, selling, or dealing in
vehicles of a type required to be registered under this code,
including nonrepairable vehicles, for the purpose of dismantling the
vehicles, who buys or sells the integral parts and component
materials thereof, in whole or in part, or deals in used motor
vehicle parts.  This section does not apply to the occasional and
incidental dismantling of vehicles by dealers who have secured
dealers plates from the department for the current year whose
principal business is buying and selling new and used vehicles, or by
owners who desire to dismantle not more than three personal vehicles
within any 12-month period.
   (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subdivision (a), keeps or
maintains on real property owned by him, or under his possession or
control, two or more unregistered motor vehicles no longer intended
for, or in condition for, legal use on the highways, whether for the
purpose of resale of used parts, for the purpose of reclaiming for
use some or all of the materials, whether metal, glass, fabric, or
otherwise, or to dispose of them, or for any other purpose.
