A 1994 Land Rover Defender 110 has been donated to Wisconsin Public Radio. This vehicle donation is an interesting one because the Land Rover Defender became a special point of interest to the U.S. government a number of years ago.
Another throwback to a car you may have ridden in with your dad or grandpa when you were a kid. This time we had a 1976 Lincoln Continental Mark IV donated to Habitat for Humanity of Western Wayne County, Michigan.
An old, yellow VW Bug convertible was recently donated to Habitat for Humanity. This car donation is for the donor’s local habitat in Honolulu, Hawaii. The generous donor purchased the 1975 Volkswagen Beetle after her last child left for college. She lovingly named her car ‘Baby’.
Just recently we had a beautiful 1961 Jaguar Mark IX donate to American Cancer Society. This classic Jaguar 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.
This is not the first MG we have received as a donation but it is one of the better models we have seen. It is the fourth MG donated so far this year and also the oldest aside of a 1952 though that was a kit car and not an original. This green roadster only has 3,505 miles which is incredible for a 1977. We do not know much about this MG’s previous life but the donor is from Grand Rapids, Michigan. Presumably, the car spent most of it’s time there cruising with the top down catching the breeze off Lake Michigan.
The ’77 MG has been donated to Michigan Radio, a part of the NPR news network. Unfortunately, University of Michigan basketball suffered a tough loss last night in the NCAA tournament. Hopefully seeing a donation like this one will help ease the pain.
