If you privately sell a car and the buyer pays says he will be back in week but never shows up How long do have to legally keep car?

It depends on the state and possibly local laws.

In general, if the buyer fails to complete the sale or take possession of the vehicle within a reasonable amount of time, the seller may be entitled to cancel the sale and resell the vehicle. However, the exact timeframe for this will vary by jurisdiction. In some states, it may be a specific number of days or weeks, while in others it may be determined based on factors such as the circumstances of the sale and the intent of the parties involved. To determine the specific laws and regulations regarding the sale of vehicles in your area, it is recommended to consult with a local attorney or the relevant government agencies responsible for vehicle registration and sales.
