Declaring bankruptcy improves your debt-to-income ratio, which makes you a more attractive borrower than you were before you filed.
Whether you’re doing a Chapter 7 or a Chapter 13 bankruptcy, you can apply for used car financing as soon as you’ve filed – there’s no need to wait.
Many lenders won’t require any down payment at all, but if you can make one it will help.

There are lenders who recognize and appreciate this and want to help you get the car you need.

The best way to rebuild your credit after bankruptcy is to incur reasonable new debt and make your payments on time. We’ve identified the best lenders who will work with you in spite of a bankruptcy, and this is what repairs your damaged credit.
You can start the process right after you filed for bankruptcy.
There are bankruptcy lenders who don’t require any down payment at all, but all lenders like to see a down payment, and making one will help you get better terms on your loan. Aim for $500 or $1,000 fora down payment.
The lender you work with will just want to verify that the balance due on the car is included in the bankruptcy and that you’re making arrangements to surrender the vehicle to the loan servicer or whoever is to take possession of the vehicle.
