Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Georgia

Co-Signed on a car and co-signer defaulted

After a divorce I foolishly co-signed for my ex on a car. He defaulted after 6 months and left the car in my driveway. I have made every payment. I filed a judgement and won. However he does not work so I can't collect anything as I understand any monies in 401K can't be touched with a garnishment. I want him to sign over the title so I can sell the car. He refuses. I send a certified letter every 6 months with a power of attorney form and he refuses the certified letter. What can I do to get this title out of his name. I have 6 payments left. It is titled in his name and mine.

When the car is paid off you can possibly levy on the car (it's his) and the sheriff will sell it at a sheriff's sale to pay off the judgment. Do not attempt this without legal counsel reviewing everything.
