Please help my car win a restoration by voting - LotusTalk

Hi folks...normally I don't make these kinds of requests, but this is something which I could really use for my Ford restoration project. This is an online contest in which I could potentially win $10,000 to go towards restoring my 1950 "shoebox" ford. As some of you may recall, this was the car that the little old lady next door sold to me for $1000. It's all original, has the original flathead V8, and I was recently able to get her back onto the road. However, winning this prize would pretty much guarantee being able to give her the TLC she needs to be brought back to pristine running condition. If I could get your votes, I'd really appreciate it.

Here's the link to my contest entry: http://bit.ly/V0nten

And here's a picture of the car you'd be supporting. Thank you kindly!

Thank you so much! Feel free to cast your vote again every 24 hours, too!

I can't imagine anyone not supporting you on this. I had the privilege of being at one of your garage days where a friend and I did some work on my yellow S2000. It was a great day.

You are a true car guy and clicking on a vote link is the least I could do.

Done.

mr.woolery · 12-28-2012, 03:30 PM

Well, so far it looks like my entry has come in second place. The good news, though, is that the voting score counts for 20% of the total in determining the winner of the contest. There's still hope though, as the contest judges may yet give us a favorable rating for the remaining 80% of the total score available in determining the winner. Let's keep our hopes and chins up!

Thank you so much, everyone, for the participation and support you were able to give me in this contest. At least now you know that I won't be begging/spamming you guys to help me get more votes! LOL
