Thank you, I will try write progress updates for this website once I get going with the project. I'm working on a way to get the car down to my town with out breaking the bank.
And about that drawing, I don't believe I can share that artwork, it's copyright of another owner, but I used some of that information to make this drawing. This is what the car most likely would have looked like in 1908.
Because I am going to need as much help as possible, I would greatly appreciate it if you could share this link with your friends.
I will need much more then just $10,000 to restore the car, but before that, I will start the 501c3 process, which is about a $1000 cost alone. Once I have that, I will be able to have volunteers start work on the car.

Look forward to watching your progress on the "McKeen Car".
