You would do it to solve this problem...

your form.py

class CarOwnerForm(forms.ModelForm):
    first_name = forms.charfield()
    last_name = forms.charfield()

    class Meta:
        model = CarOwner
        fields = ['ownership_type','CarModel']

    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        _choices_list = kwargs.pop('_choices', None)
        super(CarOwnerForm, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        if _choices_list is not None:
            # this only works if 'ownership_type' is a CharField... and it will be your error
            self.fields['ownership_type'].choice = _choices_list  # I don't remeber if the attribute is 'choice' or 'choices'
            # if 'ownership_type' is a RelationField, you must set queryset and not a list of strings

and in your views.py

...
def car_owner_search(request):
    """Doctype for view"""
    if request.user.is_authenticated():
        _CHOICE_LIST = ['B', 'None', 'C']
        if request.method == 'POST':
             form = CarOwnerForm(data=request.POST, _choices=_CHOICE_LIST)

             if form.is_valid():
                your_model = form.save(commit=False)
                your_model.first_name = form.cleaned_data['first_name']
                your_model.save()
        else:
            form = CarOwnerForm(_choices=_CHOICE_LIST)
        return render (request,'carmanager/CarOwnerSearch.html', {'form': form})
    return HttpRedirect('/login/') # or other HttpResponse

There are really quite a few errors here.

Firstly, modelforms expect a certain interface. They accept the POST, any initial data, and a model instance. But you've overridden that so that they only accept a, b, c , whatever that is; not only have you destroyed the ability of the class to do the things it needs to do, you also pass those arguments on to the superclass which isn't expecting them.

Secondly, you need to take more care with your attributes. Forms don't have a field attribute, they have fields ; a choicefield doesn't have a choice attribute, it has choices ; and choices needs to be a iterable of iterables, for IDs and display values, not a single iterable.
