Donating a Car (in LA)

Does anyone here have any experience in donating a car? Is there anything I should watch out for, or any popular scams?

A quick google search came up with this group http://www.donateacar2charity.com/car-charity-info.php
which is run by this group http://www.activatedministries.org/

Any help/comments?

Thanks.
p.s. vote for Xianti in Wired.

I did this and it worked great. Call them up and they should bring over a flatbed to take it away for you.

I donated my last ride to Salvation Army when I moved from Chicago out to Colorado. Worked well, they sent a truck, etc. They auction it off and send you a statement saying how much they got, you can deduct it on your taxes.

Thanks for all the help guys. I just got it taken care of. My parents ended up selling the car to my mechanic.
