Teutel family's special E85 chopper raffled away for $113,357

Filed under: ,



Remember that Renewable Fuel Chopper that the Teutel family, stars of "American Choppers," had designed and the put up for raffle? Bob from ALAMN let AutoblogGreen know that the raffle generated over $113,000, which was promptly donated to the American Lung Association of Iowa's Clean Air Choice Program (the state fair folks). The winner of the raffle (which had $10 tickets) was Michael Murphy of Seymour, Iowa. The $113,000 will be used to promote E85 and biodiesel in Iowa.

If you want more Renewable Fuel Chopper action, check out how it was made on American Choppers episodes that will air on The Learning Channel on October 11 and October 18.

For the record, the Iowa Clean Air Choice Team is made up of General Motors, the Iowa Biodiesel Board, the Iowa Corn Promotion Board, the Iowa Soybean Association, the Iowa Renewable Fuels Association, Kum & Go, Iowa Farm Bureau Federation, Siouxland Energy & Livestock Cooperative, the National Ethanol Vehicle Coalition and the American Lung Association of Iowa. I think they also have something to do with Corn Guy.
