  • Here's my best bet, only about 40% chance of success, but better than the no answers you currently have: Go look for your local state government's surplus sales website. Find a good-looking car on it. Start a 2-hour auction on Ebay or a similar site, and set up a bot to bid $5000 more than the cost of the car on the gov't site. (Much more effective than setting a reserve price.) With the price the government usually hocks cars at, it shouldn't be too hard to get someone to pay the extra 5k at auction. If they do, use the money to buy the car so it's ready when they come to pick it up (and pay for your uncle's operation, of course.) If no one will match your price, you're not out anything except the $1.50 or whatever is costs to put up an item on Ebay, and you can try again right away. Good luck with that.
