Please Make a Donation to the PVGP Charities

The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix Association has many ways that you can donate to our cause – to help individuals in the Pittsburgh region with autism and intellectual and developmental disabilities. Since 1983 the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix, through the generosity of donors and the success of our event, has donated more than $6 million.

If you are interested in donating, below are several ways to make your charitable dollars go even further!

Donate Your Used Car, Truck, RV or Boat to the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix and Help Fuel our Charities!

In partnership with Vehicles For Charity, the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix accepts pre-owned vehicles that will be auctioned to raise money for our charities. Fast, free pick-up, friendly service and better than a low trade-in or high repairs. You will also get a tax benefit while helping those less fortunate. Save yourself the work and aggravation of selling your vehicle on your own. Over the past 15 years dozens of PVGP fans have donated cars, ranging from $250 to $10,000 each. Every dollar is important to our charities.

Vehicles For Charity makes the whole process easy. They will pick up the vehicle and take it to the auction for sale. No problem if the car is not running – it will be loaded onto a flatbed truck.

  1. Give us a call at 412 559-3500 or complete the short online form
  2. Pick-up is arranged – all you need to do is have the keys and sign the vehicle title
  3. The vehicle is sold and the PVGP receives the funds
  4. You will be sent a letter that will allow you to deduct the full sale price on your taxes
  5.  Everybody wins!

Sport a PVGP License Plate – Vanity Plates Now Available!

Show your pride with your very own PVGP license plate! What could be more appropriate for anyone who reveres the glory days of the automobile – especially all of us who identify with the nation’s premier vintage racing event – than a Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix vanity plate. Replace that old, nondescript standard PA plate with this fully legal PVGP license plate and show your Grand Prix pride! The PVGP license plate is the brainchild of the Grand Prix’s own Scott Rupert, who worked with PennDOT to make this happen. It’s going to turn into a significant fundraiser over time, as well as a year-round awareness builder for our event. The plate must be ordered directly from the PVGP, and the price is only $50 to receive an assigned 4 digit number. You can also create your own vanity plate with the PVGP logo for $160. Both options are available on the form below. Allow 8-10 weeks, please. PVGP License Plate Form-PDF
