I need help finding a car loan...?

What I have is the title to my 1993 Buick LeSabre, which is in excellent condition and has only 45,000 miles on it. KBB says its worth around $3,000. I was hoping to get a title loan, but my local bank does not do title loans on cars over 7 years old. I tried Capital One, but you have to take a minimum loan of $7500, and I only need about $2200. Is there anywhere I could get a loan using my car is collateral? I was going to use it to pay off my credit cards and then pay back at a lower interest rate. I already have full coverage insurance on the car. My credit score is a little on the low side, so I don't think I could do a personal loan. Any ideas?

1. for amounts under 3000 banks do not need collateral, and if you have decent credit and a job I would try another bank.
2. Beware of Advance fee Loan scams. LOAN SCAM - Do Not Pay UpFront Fees. Do not send money UpFront via Western Union or MoneyGram to any person or business in the UK, Nigeria or Canada in hopes of getting a loan. If you do you will learn a hard lesson & never see any Loan money. Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is! NEVER give out your personal information to strangers online!

3. I know of a company which is peer-to-peer lending. People who are lending money to other people throughout the United States. This is not a bank or a payday loan place. The company is called Prosper.com. The company has plenty of good information for both lenders and borrowers.
4. Before going in for loan, read the guidance given in this site.
