Justin Bieber signs on ...

Dealership, pop star aim to help skate park

An improved skateboard park is no pipe dream thanks to a hot set of wheels.

Justin Bieber has teamed up with Frank Sandola, dealer principal at Stratford Hyundai, to raise money to refurbish the skatepark on Downie Street.

Bieber popped into the local dealership and signed a 2012 red Genesis Turbo Coupe which will be auctioned off on eBay next month.

Sandola sold Bieber's grandmother Diane Dale a car a while back and that's how it all got started.

He said:

"After getting to know Diane I was trying to figure out a way to help the city and involve Justin. I approached Diane about it,". 

Word went through the proper channels and Sandola was told Bieber agreed to sign the car for a cause. Sandola let Bieber decide exactly where the money should go and he chose the skate park.

"He wants to give the kids somewhere to go and do their thing," Sandola said.

All proceeds from the $40,000 car will go to the skate park, Sandola said.

Bieber signed the driver's side sun visor, the accompanying paperwork which includes the vehicle identification number (VIN), the passenger's side dashboard and added music notes and wrote a note on the brochure for the car: "Congrats. Looks like you're the lucky winner. Justin Bieber." All of that will go with the car as well as pictures of Bieber signing the car and other items.

The car is currently in the showroom of the dealership. Sandola is considering accepting donations from fans who want to have pictures taken with the car. The proceeds will still go to the skatepark.
