As far as I know, they can sell it the same day they repossess, unless there is some provision in your loan contract. But the car actually is theirs. That is what repossession means. They have the title, because when you signed the loan contract, the loan company actually bought and comletely paid in full for the car from the dealer, and then allowed you to drive it while you paid them back in installments. The loan company actually completely owned the car from day one, you never actually owned it. So, when they repossess, they are taking their car back away from you. They can sell it anytime they want. If they are nice, they may give you the opportunity to catch up the payments, and drive it again. All that is completely up to them, providing there wasn't some clause in the loan contract that prevents them from doing that, but I seriously doubt that.Here is an interesting side note. Most loans require you carry full coverage insurance on the vehicle at all times. If you let that insurance drop, they can repossess the car, even if your loan payments are up to date.
