How have YOU raised money for a car or parts? (for you Mark 12:30)
« on: November 29, 2005 - 08:33:35 PM »
In honor of Beams, I mean Mark 12:30 return, I would like US to tell him all the fun and strange ways we have raised money for our rides.  I know when I started out I was scrounging for every penny.  :pullinghair:

I was working two jobs just to pay the bills, and none of it was available for my love of CARS!  Therefore, I had to make money in other ways:

1.   I detailed cars on the weekend, made anywhere from $50 to $200 a car depending on what they wanted.  Wash, wax, engine detail, carpet cleaning, ect
2.   Worked on other peoples, cars, changing the oil, rotating the tires, brakes jobs, tune-ups, or whatever car repairs I felt comfortable doing.   :undercar:
3.   I had a friend, whose dad owned a “porta potty” business, and I worked Saturdays refurbishing them (one nasty job) but it paid $10 an-hour cash.

I hope these ideas help, not only Mark 12:30, but anyone else who needs to raise money for their cars.

You should set up a separate account for the extra monies, and you will be amazed how fast it grows.  :money:

Well, Uncle Sam's usually pretty good to me at tax time :bigthumb: , that catches up all my bills, sometimes I have enough left over to buy stuff. When times get tough, I paint myself up and stand on the street corner and pimp my sweet bread and butter a$$ to anyone who's willing to pay fer it ! ! !  :misbehaving:

I think I would be no good at it either. I'm too sensitive.

I sold the extra parts that came with my car it pretty much took care of it. A hole 300.00 for the car after all was said and done. But now i dont have a shaker, 6 pack, nitros or a bunch of extras. But oh well, 72 didnt come with it so i didnt need it! oh yeah i sold my .308 savage tactical sniper rifle for the paint and materials. Suck for dear hunting i cant hit nothing with the 340! LOL Man after seeing what the shakers are selling for now i could have bought another car! :money:  :puke2:

later
