Car Donation Documentation

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm claiming a car donation and have the 1098-C.  I was surprised when I was asked when and how much I originally paid for the car.  I was able to find a car loan document to answer the questions but I had prematurely thrown out all of the dealer purchase documentation.  If audited, will I be expected to provide the original car purchase documentation? 

 

Thanks,

Steve
