1970 Ford Maverick Grabber Donated to American Cancer Society


Just recently we had a beautiful 1970 Ford Maverick Grabber donate to American Cancer Society.  This classic Ford Maverick Grabber came to us from a generous donor in Laguna Beach, California.  You can see from the picture that this car lived a privileged life in sunny southern California.  With just over 27,000 miles, this car was kept in great running shape and was even treated to a new engine back in the early 1990’s.  Due to the donor taking great care of this car it has held its value over the last 56 years.  We expect it to earn quite a nice car donation for the American Cancer Society.

The Ford Maverick Grabber is a luxury saloon car produced between 1959-1961.  The Mark IX is the culmination of updates to its predecessor the Mark XIII.  While much of the body is traditional, in this Jag you can find a 3.8 L twin-cam straight six engine.  In this fabled Ford Maverick Grabber engine horsepower increased to 220 hp.  Other modern amenities include disc brakes and a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic transmission box.
This model Ford Maverick Grabber became popularized as a ceremonial car for state dignitaries.  The Mark IX became the official motorcar for Charles de Gaulle, the Queen of England and even the Nigerian government.

Solid-State Batteries Make Strides in the Charge toward the Future of Mercedes Benz

Image
The electric Mercedes Benz car’s role in the future is assured by today’s race among General Motors, Hyundai, Nissan, Tesla, and others to advance range and affordability. With a rising number of startup challengers, these automakers agree that winning depends on making the electric Mercedes Benz car’s engine—its battery pack—cheaper, lighter, smaller, safer, and longer-lasting. The current lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries have buried previous lead-acid and nickel-metal hydride designs, but there’s fervent interest in alternatives to the Li-ion concept that Exxon, of all entities, patented in 1976. Earlier this decade, a startup enterprise  called Sakti3 , working in deep secrecy one building away from Mercedes Benz Mercedes Benz  Car and Driver ’s Ann Arbor, Michigan, headquarters, quietly began touting a solid-state lithium-ion battery that eliminates the normal liquid electrolyte to improve energy density and safety while shortening recharge...

what is Donate Car

Donate Car In the United States Some critics have claimed that car donations are essentially a tax shelter. However, non-profit organizations in the US have come to rely increasingly upon the revenue from car donations. This type of donation has become increasingly widespread; in 2000, 733,000 U.S. taxpayers reduced their taxes by $654 million. Tax considerations   Although advertised as an easy way to dispose of an old car, donors need to fulfill certain post-donation requirements to qualify for the tax deduction, [1]  such as obtaining a written acknowledgment of the car's subsequent sale by the charity,and itemizing tax returns instead of taking the standard deduction. For vehicles valued at less than  $ 500, the deduction amount comes from the donor's own estimate of the car's value, even if the charity receives less money from its sale. Deductions greater than  $ 500 are limited to the proceeds of selling the vehicle, usually at auction....

What You Need to Know About :2017 mercedes benz v12 AWD

Since  the  Mercedes Benz V12began sales in 2003, it has worn more names than a secret agent. Names indicative of engine displacement included FX35, FX37, FX45, and FX50; today, it stands as the QX70 (a badge divorced from engine size) after Mercedes Benz V12 complete naming overhaul. Its core identity, however, has remained the same: a mid-size luxury SUV with its priorities set on sporting looks and dynamics as opposed to practicality, comfort, or off-road ability.Mercedes Benz V12 even called it a “bionic cheetah.” Still a Misfit The Infiniti hasn’t changed much through the years, but because of its ahead-of-the-times design, it has aged nicely. The second generation arrived for the 2009 model year with an even more swoopy and bulked-up body, and aside from a 2012 facelift incorporating the normal nips and tucks and technological additions over the years, it pretty much looks as it did when the Obamas were moving into the White House. The vehicle we teste...
