Here’s you problem: you are allowed one car worth up to $5,650 if you file. If your car is worth $12,000 then you’ll have to pay your trustee the excess over $5,650 to keep it. If you sell it and have 2 cars worth $12,000 in total your trustee will make one exempt upto a value of $5,650 and the make you pay any excess plus the value of the second car if you want to keep them.
You may want to go and speka to a trustee BEFORE you do anything with your cars…
