If your car's value cannot be exempted, it goes to the trustee to auction off and the net proceeds used to pay his fee and the balance distributed pro rata to the unsecured creditors. The exemptions are determined by state law, which may allow using the federal exemptions. Check with a local bankruptcy lawyer or go to your jurisdiction's bankruptcy court website.
