After that is completed you wait 2 weeks for your title in the mail.
After you have done that, then you are liable to sell the vehicle. You know that. Now if it wasn't a lien sale, and you had the actualy pink slip. You must notify the buyer of the fee's etc. and who is responsible for smog, and that would be LEGAL. All you have is a white piece of paper in your name with UNCOMPLETED registration.
However. Your saying all the fee's are paid. Are you sure they are? and not lying about it?
What year and month were the tags expired when you bought it?
YOU need to pay the DMV backfee's from the previous owner(s) however.
You always want to be a LEGIT seller when selling a car.
So much shit can come back on you. It's not even funny.
Now forsay. You can still sell the car however because you OWN it. But You should sell it to someone in CALIFORNIA.
Don't try to sell the car out of state, because it becomes a burden for the buyer. I'm sure once you get your $$ your a happy camper, but he/she has to hassle getting everything legit.
