I'm not sure what you're asking, but it seems that you are saying that your child's father is deceased and he left a car behind. For small assets, like a car, you can have an administrator appointed by going to the courthouse with the death certificate and opening a small estate. The administrator should probably be a family member. If there is no family, you, as the mother of his heir, may be able to act. The car could be sold and the money put in trust for the child. This should not be very costly. Go to the courthouse and talk with the Register of Wills office. They should be able to help you.
