Since my daily driver has been replaced I am looking to get rid of the old POS Grand Prix. It's not worth much and is in need of a bit of work, but runs and drives fine. Rather than spend time trying to sell it I'm planning on just donating it. Has anyone done this before, or know of places that do this type of thing? I've looked a little but haven't found much.

I donated a car once, just look in the newspaper for ads, call the number, and they'll come tow it away.

Did you get something to prove you donated it so you can claim it on your taxes?

Yeah, they'll give you a tax deduction slip.

The taxes advantages on donating on cars has changed since last year or year before. It is no more a blank slip and fill as you need type deal now due to the IRS thinks that the real value was too inflated as tax deductions. Also, be careful of which place you donate to because allot of them are not legit donations places. GL.

You can ALWAYS take it off some sweet jumps. Many places tow junkers for free. They get money from the scrap metal. I suggest waiting till winter and doing 120mph on a lake and get 'er spinning.

Why not donate it to a charitable cause versus a junkyard who is just looking to make a buck?
