Is there a way to get a company to sponsor restoration of my classic car for free?

1. yeah ask them nicely
2. yes- but it has to be pretty rare and they need to get something out of it to like advertising say if you contacted A show like rides or pimp my ride, just canvas all the restorers/detailers, You are going to have to get the word out there yourself on this.
3. maybe if you sign a contract to place a large advertisement, of their company, on your car when you drive it
4. MTV. Pimp my Classic?
5. some companies might want to do it if you allow them to use your car for advertising contact them in person and if you can bring your car be polite about it
6. I don't know about a company but you could check into schools where auto restoration is taught. It will still cost some money but not as much as a shop's services.
7. Since you are talking about a $50000 expenditure they would need a really great reason. If there was a reason like that millions of other owners of run down old cars would be on line ahead of you.
8. First you can try a making a website. On the restoration of your car. Try your web site some an angle. include before shots on the site. Make it like a challenge. Found old car in the woods. Or it was my daddy's car. Or a simple challenge can an ordanary working man build a car to take on the big names. - Have advertizing space on the site. Use articals to mention store names. - Then collect data on the traffic of your website. track down the IP address of people visiting your site. Create marketing data. - Bring this to the attention of the people in marketing you have helped. - Websites are good also if they help, use your experiance to write how to's with photos. (to help draw traffic)
