Selling a non-running Nissan Altima in Santa Clarita, CA
A Nissan Altima that does not start can still receive an offer. Have the ownership documents, your ID and any keys ready, note missing parts, and tell the pickup partner if the car is behind a gate, in a garage or missing wheels. Condition affects the amount: a vehicle that does not run, is missing parts or has major damage usually receives less than one that drives.

Selling a junk car in California: title & DMV rules
California exempts vehicles model year 1980 and older from titling, so an older Santa Clarita car can often be sold on a bill of sale alone. Anything newer needs a title in your name.
- If the title is missing
- California does not normally require a bonded title for a junk sale. A duplicate title (REG 227 (Application for Duplicate or Paperless Title)) or, for scrap-only sales, a licensed-recycler affidavit is the usual route. The duplicate-title paperwork in California is REG 227 (Application for Duplicate or Paperless Title).
- License plates
- Leave the plates on the vehicle unless they are personalized — California plates stay with the car.
- Notice of sale / release of liability
- File a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability (REG 138) with the DMV within 5 days — this is what ends your liability.
- What California salvage buyers must do
- California allows vehicles 1980 and older to be sold to a licensed dismantler without a title using a Bill of Sale plus a Statement of Facts (REG 256). Newer vehicles require a duplicate title (REG 227) before sale.
- Sign the seller assignment on the title
- Complete the odometer disclosure
- Handle plates as CA requires
- File the notice of sale, then cancel insurance
