An UPDATE to our previous update! A little happy donor feedback goes a long, long way!
UPDATE: SOLD! You won’t believe this Beauty! Donated Ford Model A in auction-ready condition is a sight to behold! Scroll on for a photo gallery…
The Ford Model A of our dreams!
We could ramble on about this gorgeous classic! But pics of M.L.’s donated 1931 Ford Model A 2D Coupe sing it all:
Donation received! Now what?
Every donated vehicle is assessed for re-sale or recycle value. And you guessed it! This fantastic beast is ready for auction. The sale will be managed by Regal Auctions in Calgary, Alberta. Be sure to follow that link to see even more fabulous photos of the interior! If you can make to the auction, you are most welcome! ‘Can’t make it to the sale? Bidding will be available online, too!
The Ford Model A will go up for sale as-is. It will be sold to the highest bidder. The net proceeds from the sale will go directly to the Canadian Cancer Society. There is no cost or effort to the CCS in this process. Everything will be managed by ourselves here at Donate a Car Canada and Regal Auctions. Finally, CanadaHelps will facilitate getting the tax receipt to the charity so that M.L. can receive their tax receipt!
Do you have a vehicle to donate? Runnin’ or rusty, classic or crush-ready, every car counts! It is so easy. First, fill in an online donation form. Then, wait for your phone to ring (that’s the tow crew calling to arrange your free tow). Finally, watch your inbox. That’s where you’ll find your tax receipt at process end.
We are always a phone call (1-877-250-4904) or an email away. And our FAQ‘s and queries can help if you have questions you’d like answered before you proceed.
Stay tuned!

Happy news! We have a sale update!
For those of you following along on this Canadian Cancer Society vintage car donation, we have news! We are happy to report that the Model A was successfully auctioned in late September. The donation outcome? *Drum roll please….* $10,687.50 will be sent to the CCS in the donor’s name. That is a robust donation, and a hearty tax receipt amount, too. Big kudos to this generous donor!
Updated #2: What the donor has to say
Here at Donate a Car Canada we strive for 5 star reviews all the way. Our effort is to ensure that your donation experience is 100% positive. So, when a donor expresses dissatisfaction? Hooboy! Do we ever take it to heart. When a donor is over the moon about their process? We’re over the moon, too!
On a special gift like this donated Ford Model A we know that there is a unique investment on the donor’s side of things. When we heard his thoughts on how it all came together, we were tickled:
“We were able to listen to the live auction and were elated to hear the
outcome.
On behalf of myself and my family, we want to thank you for all of your
advice, guidance, support, research, and networking in helping us to have
the car auctioned-off for a good cause. We appreciate you.
My late Grandparents, as well as my late Dad, all of whom owned and enjoyed
the car at one time or another, would be so happy with this outcome.”
And do we ever appreciate this family! ‘Here’s to your family being next on the happy donor list!
