1957 Ford Thunderbird / Taxes Paid

V8s for Vocations, Gallup, New Mexico;

The Rev. Matthew Keller started the V8s for Vocations project by restoring a donated ’72 Chevelle SS in 2014. It was raffled in 2016 to provide scholarships for seminarians to become priests for the Diocese of Gallup. The Diocese is the poorest in the United States, and creative ways to sustain the life in the Diocese are much needed.

All proceeds support the education and formation of seminarians who will return and serve in the Diocese of Gallup, the poorest in the United States. The Diocese of Gallup serves predominantly Native American and Hispanic populations across New Mexico and Arizona. Due to persistent financial difficulties, it does not own a seminary, and thus is obliged to send seminarians to another state or overseas, ensuring that future priests receive the education they deserve. This effort is a costly one, and creative projects such as the V8s for Vocations allow the Diocese to keep fostering vocations for the future of the Catholic Church.

Prize Details

V8s for Vocations 2019 Raffle Grand Prize;
1957 Ford Thunderbird
- And Taxes are Paid -
This year’s car is a ’57 Ford Thunderbird. It’s a personal luxury car. It’s an automobile legend.

The 1957 Thunderbird was significantly restyled from the two previous year models with a more chiseled body, a larger front bumper around a larger front grille, a redesigned trunk lid and more pronounced, sharper-edged tail fins. The new trunk lid allowed the spare tire to move back inside

The 312-cubic-inch V8 was standard on the ’57 Thunderbird with output pegged at 245 hp.
