Without knowing what's in the trust documents it's difficult to say.

If you wanted the trust to own the car the title should have been placed in the name of the trust, the trustee or a lien secured on the title in favor of the trust. The horse is now out of the barn and you want to close the door. Too late. Maybe you should talk with the trust's lawyer before spending any more of the trust's money.
