How To Sell Your Unfinished Project Car

Let Us Finish Your Car Rebuild Project and Give You a Tax Deduction

There’s nothing more fun for those of us who love cars than finding a neglected version of that special car we love so much and bringing it back to life as a perfect restoration. If that car is like most classic car restorations, it needs body work, paint restoration, an engine rebuilt, or, most likely, everything. That’s what makes it a challenge and so much fun. Right?

While restoration projects provide hours of enjoyment, often over years, sometimes they just become too time-consuming, costly, and, occasionally, challenging to our marital relationships!

If you have an automotive rebuild project that has become too much of a time or money pit and you’re looking for help through a car restoration shop, we may be able to help.

Just Driven LLC – Orange, California

We are super fortunate to have Daryl Alison’s Just Driven LLC managing our car donation program through the Just Donated LLC program.

Daryl has been in the restoration business for over two decades and, in addition to operating our car donation program, has a team that produces fantastic classic car mod restorations on high-demand classic cars. [Including a project for Lady Gaga!]

The pictures in the sidebar show the restoration of a classic GT 40 replica car that was donated to the Foundation last year. [We’re working on a program to allow donors to experience driving this classic race car. Click here for information.]

Get a Tax Deduction for Your Auto Restoration Project

If your car qualifies for our program, you can donate your unfinished restoration project to the Disabled Veteran Empowerment Network (DVEN) at any point in the restoration. Just Donated, acting for DVEN, will appraise the car for its expected sale value when restoration is completed and provide you with an appraisal you can use for a tax deduction on your current year tax return.

Just Donated will complete the restoration, sell the car, and donate the proceeds to the Disabled Veteran Empowerment network to support disabled veterans.

You will be able to take a tax deduction for your project even before we sell it, and help disabled veterans in the process. It simply doesn’t get any better than that.
