Sold my 87 Mustang GT in top condition to a girl who works in my company. She paid $1400 then and was supposed to pay $1400,last week. Now she is not answering my calls. I still have the title with me. How can I get the money or the car back.

Buying Honda CIvic EX: How much should I offer?
you can report it stolen but thats kinda mean lolDo you get money back at the end of your lease if you didn't use all of the miles?
file a small claims suit in your local courthouseCan i lease a car in a dealership with no money? i just got a job but i have bills to pay?
You can contact a repo man, provide proof that you have ownership and they will go pick it up, for a fee of course. You can also go through small claims court, receive a judgement and then put a garnishment on her wages. If she quits her job, then you would have to keep up with where she is working, and file your paperwork with the next employer, could be a real hassle. Don't give up that title, is she the registered owner, and you the legal owner? The transaction should have been written that way, however, if you never changed the title into her name, and she has the car, you better get it back fast, because if she gets in a wreck, or dumps the car somewhere, law enforcement will come after you, and you will be sued in the case of an accident. She should be carrying full coverage, if you are the lienholder, somehow I don't think she put any insurance on the car, again, another reason to repo. If you need to repo the car while she is at work, then great, simple, fast and easy. Good luck.I need to get rid of my auto/loan, is there such thing as vehicle surrendering?
DO NOT report the car stolen- it isn't- and you will get in trouble/sued for doing that.Did you make a written contract with the buyer? If so, there are various legal procedures you can use to get the car back.
If you know where the car is, and still have a key for it, the easiest thing to do would be to quietly go and "reposess" it yourself. (Have the title on your person while doing this...just in case).
Local police may be willing to help (depending on how decent your local force is)- explain the scenario, and that you still are the legal owner and wish to have your property back.
It's hard to give more specifics without knowing the details. But it's still your car...so take it back!
If/when you give her the $1400 back, make sure you do it in such a way that you will have proof of doing so. (I once sold a truck to someone...and specified in the contraqct that I wrote up, that if they didn't pay in full by the specified date, I would reposess the truck AND keep any money received up to that time. Guess what...they paid up!)
Good luck! (and DO NOT do this again- she could wreck the car- and you would not only never see your moeny, but you could be financially liable, since it is still your car)
Hmmm
Strange, but common situation
Why don't you talk with her personally? ( If she is working in your company It won't be difficult task) If nothing happened call the police. I hope you haven't transfered the car yet.
Does anyone know about GreasyPalm?
Good luck!
Thanks
