If you don't have the title, you're technically selling property that's not yours, which is illegal. I recommend getting the proper paperwork before selling it, or you could be in trouble in the future.

Depends on your state. In california you have to go to either DMV, or the Highway Patrol to get a blue tag. I own a nissan skyline here in the states and for me to have it here, I had to get it blue tagged because it has no identification.
If you own the car and have no title, you can get one from your DMV or the county clerks office. You will pay a small fee but that is better then getting pulled over and getting arrested.
Now, if the car can be donated, you can donate it for a tax deduction in most states. Either it applies to your state tax or you fed tax. I would suggest calling one of those churches and tell them about it and see what they can do. They will come and tow the car for free. It's all charity.

If you plan on selling and not junking your car, you need to go to the DMV and reapply for a new title. You need to prove ownership when you do this, usually a valid registration. You may also apply for a salvage title just like a salvage yard will do. Once you get these documents ,you can proceed to do whatever you want to do with the car.

You must have the title to sell it. If the buyer doesn't have a title they cannot register, title, or get insurance in their name. In other words, they can't drive it.
Go to the DMV and apply for a duplicate (or) lost title, depending what state you're in. Good Luck.

depends on the situation...if you own the car then you need to file for lost title...no biggie since you're already the owner...
if you own the car but never got the title you need to go back to the person you bought it from...if they can't find the title THEY need to file for lost title
if the vehicle is abandoned...file for abandoned vehicle...they can either put it in your name and then you can sell it or have it towed. . the registered owner will get stuck with the bill...
Good luck!

The DMV has forms for that, if it's registered in your name.

You can crush it or sell it to a wrecking yard.
