Vehicle Donations and Loans
The vehicle donation or loan process typically begins with a review of photographs supplied by the donor, and then progresses through an on-site inspection, appraisal and the arrangement of transportation. The museum’s staff will work with donors during the entire process to ensure a seamless transaction. Furthermore, as an automotive museum, donors are typically permitted to deduct the full fair market value of the vehicle being donated. This is no longer true when donating a vehicle to a general charitable vehicle donation program, where you are now limited to deducting the resale value only.
Artifact and Memorabilia Donations
The New England Auto Museum accepts small artifacts (e.g. driving suits, car models, etc.) and pieces of automotive memorabilia (e.g. car badges, meet posters, etc.) on a case-by-case basis. Contact us to see if the museum would be interested in your piece of automotive history.
