December 23, 2019 by Amelia Island Concours

Jacksonville, FL -- In 2020, the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance will celebrate twenty-five years.

It turns out there is another significant silver anniversary in 2020. Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, John Oates and his wife Aimee celebrate 25 years of marriage.

In honor of The Amelia's 25 years of charitable giving and the Oates 25 years together, John and Aimee have donated their race car, a 1984 TIGA SC84 Sports 2000, to be auctioned off with all proceeds going to The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance Foundation.

Prepped by Gunnar Racing with a one of a kind custom paint scheme by Kevin Jeannette, the TIGA Sports 2000 is fully serviced and race ready.

'As Aimee and I approach our 25th anniversary we are reminded of how fortunate we are to have found each other. The holiday giving season provides a chance to take stock of all that we have and give back to the ones that we care about,' writes best-selling artist John Oates. 'Our hope is that the money raised from the sale of our race car provides comfort and resources for the individuals and families supported by the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance Foundation's charitable giving.'

Stay tuned for more details on this exciting charity auction set to take place during the 25th anniversary celebration of The Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance, March 5-8, 2020.
