You can get a grant for almost anything... You can write a Long Essay on some Hot topic or Studies & ask for Grant Money to help Fund Your Studies.. so there is no Limit to how much $$ you can get.. it is how well the Idea is.. So if you are some brilliant mind & trying to improve on the world around you with innovative creations/ideas.. Write a paper, send it to the government asking for Funds to pursue it.

Who can I send it to? Do you have a link? Do I send it to Dennis Kucinnich?
Are you sure about this? Is their a form or do I just write it by hand? Can I get in trouble for this?
What if I tell them I want A grant for a sound system built on a flat bed so we can have mobile jam sessions and bring back the Acid tests and were going to jam in parking lots for days at a time playing a song that never ends and rotating musicians one at a time so the song never ends- It will improve the world.

As much as I'm against douchebags spending my tax dollars on stupid bullshit they should just get a job to pay for.

That's the one I got. For low income and whatnot. Maximum is the 5.5k, which I guess means I'm the brokest of the broke xD

Very good advice. BTW the quote is from Shakespeare who was a much better writer than God
Neither a borrower nor a lender be,
For loan oft loses both itself and friend,
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

I should have used Luke as my reference:
“Luke 6:34: If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive as much again.”

I read the OP. All the following is either people flaming you or people flaming you. So I don't need to read 18 pages of this garbly goop.
Step 1. Handle regular life decisions, poorly.
Step 2. Ask for advice that you don't take.
Step 3. Receive Mockery, ridicule, shame.
Step 4. Attempt to fight back, poorly.
Step 5. Repeat until on everyone's ignore list.
Everyday right? Ya. Pretty much.
Ask your mom what to do. Stop posting here and asking us. It never helps you. Ever.

Way to step on the hopes of our altruistic brethren.
She seems to think otherwise. 
She's not on my ignore list.

It's not a Christian problem. It's universal. Lending money just leads to hard feelings. Never lend money. Give it as a gift. I do it all the time.

I pretty much concur with what people have been saying. There are so many reasons why this is a bad idea.
You are lending money that you can't afford to lose. College money for crying out loud!
Doesn't sound like your brother absolutely needs this car, it's just that his life would be a lot nicer if he had it.
You are lending it to someone with no resources and can only offer promises.
You have no fallback position and it sounds like your mom doesnt have the money either.
The money is to be invested in a $1200 car?? $1200 cars have a way of turning into $50 cars overnight when something fails.
The driver of the vehicle, that you are going to investe in, is a young man - the worst possible risk.
It's morally questionable. The people who gave you the grant didn't intend it for this use.
If your mom cosigned then you are doing her a wrong too. She probably cosigned with the understanding that the money would be used for college.
How will you feel if your brother can't pay you back? How will your brother feel? (What Carne Seca said)
