If you are a Florida resident who can use Florida exemptions, you can retain $1,000 in personal property, $1,000 in value in a car, and an additional $4,000 in personal property that you can apply against the car. As a result, the chapter 7 trustee would have a claim on your car based on your numbers. The trustee could take and sell the car. As a result, you need to confer with a bankruptcy attorney about your options including a possible chapter 13 payment plan.
