s'ko Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Just out of curiosity. What are peoples thoughts on starting a non-profit organization for the preservation of old subarus. If we can get non-profit status, donations that are made can be tax deductable. We could maybe even get SOA to pitch in and maybe local subaru dealers. I think that a trusted member of the board could head it and ownership of vehicles would belong to the non-profit org. Would probably need someone with land for storage and such. We could even have a parts depository where members can send their spare parts. Heck w/aggressive solicitation of funds/donations it could even become a full time job. Any takers? I would be willing to make a donation to such an organization. BW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moosens Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Sorry,something about this just ain't right to me.I'll have to think this over but right now I'd say it's much too much of a hassle with becoming a non-profit to bother with.I hate to shoot down an idea,so let me re-read and think about it some more.I'm going off of instinct right now. It'd work if we all lived near each other.I've thought about starting a Vintage Japanese Club here in CT since the Hispanic population holds a whole mess of wicked cool Toyotas,Datsuns,and a few Mazdas,etc. But I'd be one of a handfull of non Spanish speaking whiteboys in a sea of latinos.Don't go taking that the wrong way now,you hear?I grew up in Bridgeport,CT,not Bumluck Idaho. SOA back us up? I'm not so sure about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cricket Posted May 10, 2005 Share Posted May 10, 2005 I don't mind the Non-Profit owning my wagons, as long as I keep them in MY possession and care in trust for the Non-Profit.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SakoTGrimes Posted May 11, 2005 Share Posted May 11, 2005 If I had some spare money and knew for sure it was the real deal I would/will donate. Preserving old cars is one of the most important things. Ever. New cars suck. Usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
