Sarah's answer to my question gives me food for thought!  May instead of
restoring a car, we buy a really good one and raffles it off.  Comments?

Brian,

We paid 10K for the car.  We did VERY little to it. Remember it had 19K
original miles, was a past documented AACA winner, the car was solid
original.

Three of us busted our asses almost every weekend attending shows and
events starting in January 2009 up until 1 month before the convention
when we took the car off the "circuit" as we called it and started
detailing it for Concours.  The car scored 97 something.

We also on blind faith sent out tickets with a letter and pictures to
chapters asking them to purchase in advance.  I'd say over all that
helped, but you really need someone who will stay on it and make sure
chapters return with correct money, etc.  Many chapters did not respond
at all and did not return un-purchased tickets, so I had to stand there
with a list and explain this before we drew the winner.  I had to make
sure the ticket was purchased.  If it hadn't and the person was present
give me $5 here and now and the car is yours.  If not we would draw
again.  Thankfully that didn't happen.

Bottom line, we made over 20K AFTER expenses...

Do you know or can you find out how much money the Florida folks took in
on their raffle car?

Understand what the ad says but the price may be negotiable. This car
has been for sale for quite some time. If we offer 5500 it may stick. Up
to you. I don't mind going to look at it to see if the car is even worth
5500 or 7500. People have a funny way of thinking they have something
worth a lot when in fact it's not worth that much.

The ad says $7,500--we'll never make any money at that price.

I can check out this car and see what the gentleman will take for it if
you guys want me too. Woonsocket is a ten minute drive (if that) from my
house. Nice to live in a small state!!!!!
