Selling a junk car in Colorado: title & DMV rules
Colorado requires a title in your name to transfer a junk vehicle, including a scrap sale from a Wheat Ridge driveway.
- If the title is missing
- Colorado uses a bonded (surety) title when the chain of ownership is broken: you post a surety bond — typically 1.5× the vehicle's appraised value — and the Colorado DMV issues a title you can sign over. The duplicate-title paperwork in Colorado is DR 2539A (Duplicate Title) / DR 2922 (Bonded Title).
- License plates
- Remove your plates; Colorado plates belong to the owner and are transferable.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- File a seller's Report of Sale with your county motor vehicle office or through the Colorado DMV portal.
- What Colorado salvage buyers must do
- Colorado runs titling through county motor vehicle offices. A duplicate title is requested on DR 2539A; when the chain of ownership is broken, the bonded-title application (DR 2922) with a surety bond is the standard route. Salvage buyers report purchases to the state.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as CO requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance

Rules change — confirm current forms and filing windows with the Colorado DMV.
