Drawing & Winner Selection

On or before October 12, 2025, entries numbered 1 through 875 will be placed into a barrel, and one entry will be drawn at random. The corresponding participant will be identified as the potential winner.

Vehicle Transport & Transfer of Ownership

Motor Maker provides complimentary delivery anywhere within the lower 48 states. A $500 USD shipping credit is offered for transportation to Canada. All title transfer paperwork will be completed in the winner’s name (or in the name of the legal heir/representative in posthumous cases).

Delivery is deemed complete upon transfer of title to the winner (or their estate/heirs) or upon delivery of the prize to the shipping address provided by the winner, whichever occurs first.

Warranty

The prize vehicle is awarded as-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. The winner assumes all responsibility for maintenance, repairs, and upkeep.

Before delivery of the prize, the winner (or the winner’s estate or authorized representative, if applicable) must complete and return a valid IRS Form W-9 to Motor Maker. This form will be used to issue a Form 1099-MISC to report the fair market value of the prize to the Internal Revenue Service, as required by law.

If the winner (or estate/representative) fails to return a completed W-9 within 30 calendar days of request, the prize will be deemed forfeited and an alternate winner will be selected in accordance with these rules.
