If the payments were to go on for more than a year and it was not a written agreement there is no contract thanks to statute of frauds. Go to the police, tell them exactly what happened. Don't try to 'get cute' with the facts. They will most likely try to return both parties to the 'pre-deal' positions.... Aka giving you back your vehicle and getting her back the payments. With a dead husband she can almost defiantly make more use out of those three payments being refunded than she can out f the quad anyway. In the future, when your dad makes an agreement, tell him to use a pen.
