Cragar's 2015 Calendar
A while back I received notification that the three photos of the '33 that I had submitted for consideration for Cragar's 2015 calendar were all selected for final consideration, which was a big surprise. A couple of weeks back I got another message that the panel of judges loved my barn shot, which was the set up shot for the picture that was in NZ's PetrolHead, and that they selected it their Grand Champion! What a great surprise, but they also selected my snow shot, with the car up in the road with fresh snow for the December photo. Needless to say I'm pleased that their judges liked the car, and also for the recognition of the photos. I captured a screen shot of the calendar.

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

Thanks to all. Honestly the setup for the photo in the barn shot is what won. The team of judges felt that it captured "...the essence of hot rodding..." While highlighting Cragar wheels. More luck and timing than anything.

Celebrity, Uncle Bob? Not a chance
The bonus is that winning the cover included a set of Classic Cragar's in the size of my choice, so now the '32 will have two "looks", steelies w/ caps and Cragar's w/bigs & littles to confuse the troops.
