You can expect to receive around $100 to $400 for a junk car in the Oakland, CA market currently and a lot more for better-conditioned vehicles. This is dependent on the condition, year, make, and model of your vehicle. The weight of your vehicle is a big factor as well, as most junk cars are crushed and recycled for metal. Junk Car Medics will give you the most cash for your junk car.

It’s a good idea to read these instructions, locate all the appropriate lines on the title, and read any instructions on the title before you start filling in information. There are four different types of titles in California. The state’s website has helpful diagrams that tell you where to sign on the different versions. These instructions assume you have a new “rainbow” title as opposed to the older “pink slip.”

1. Look at the front of the title near the middle. The current owner or owners need to write in the date and sign their names on the lines under the short declaration stating they are releasing interest in the vehicle.
2. Under those lines is a box. Write in the current odometer reading in the appropriate spot. Then write in the date and sign your name on the lines under the odometer reading.
3. The buyer should turn over the car title and look near the top. They will need to print information in the series of boxes across the top that ask for: Full name of the new owner, full name of a second owner if applicable (don’t forget to check the box to indicate whether the title should say AND or OR), mailing address, city, state, zip code, and physical address where the car will be kept (if applicable).
4. Once that information is entered, the buyer will need to sign their name on the line that says “Signature of new registered owner.” Next to that they will enter their driver’s license number, followed by the purchase date. A second owner can enter the same information on the next line if applicable.

A YouTube user filmed a video that demonstrates how to fill out the back of a California title. It may be worth watching if you need a quick tutorial; however, make sure the title shown in the video has all the same lines as yours so you aren’t putting information in the wrong place.
