In Nevada that depends. Clark and Washoe counties have an almost identical smog program with CA. Those two counties comprise of 90% of the state's population. But NV. law does not hold the seller wholly responsible like CA. So be up front about the failure and get a legal bill of sale (notorized) stating the vehicle does not pass smog and it is up to the buyer to make it legal. It is called CYA.

Yes. As noted above you are not responsible for the buyer being able to smog it just be completely up front about it.
CYA with a line in the bill of sale, or another notarized document with the VIN that you both sign and each of you keep one notarized copy of, that states "The seller states that this vehicle did not pass the last attempted CA smog test and the buyer acknowledges this disclosure."
No reason to cave to the state of CA and junk it.
