In honor of its 65th anniversary, the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation (AACF) presents its first Annual Classic Car Sweepstakes, inviting automotive enthusiasts and community supporters to enter for a chance to win a fully restored 1965 Ford Mustang convertible.

A showcase example of the American classic pony car, it was carefully brought back to its original glory, combining history, power and style for a truly extraordinary driving experience for its future owner, the organization noted in a press release.

Every sweepstakes entry goes toward a meaningful cause—helping families in the automotive aftermarket industry who are facing tough times.

“This campaign is more than just a chance to own a legendary car—it’s a powerful way to support AACF’s mission. For 65 years, AACF has been there for families in the automotive aftermarket industry during their hardest moments, providing essential financial relief and support,” the organization stated. “Funds raised through the Classic Car Sweepstakes will help spread awareness of AACF’s work, ensuring industry families know that they have a place to turn when facing unexpected hardships.”

Sweepstakes sponsors include Hunter Engineering, Lucas Oil, TechNet, PowerStop and Yokohama Tire. Primo Classics International provided the Mustang at a discounted rate.

“This Mustang represents more than just a prize; it’s a symbol of the automotive aftermarket’s commitment to supporting our own,” said John Kairys, AACF executive director. “Every entry helps us continue our mission to be there for families when they need us most. We’re grateful for everyone who participates in this sweepstakes and helps raise awareness for AACF’s work.”

The sweepstakes closes May 15, 2025, and the winner will be drawn May 23. Learn more or enter the sweepstakes here.
