Good Luck with the Sale!
Sometimes those fake money orders and cashiers checks aren't detected to be fake until after you've cashed it and the buyer is long gone. Then, you're held responsible for paying the bank back. By that time, you have no car and no money. I'd avoid selling it to anyone that doesn't come to your house to look at it with cash in hand.
