Anyway, just thought I'd pass that along. I'm just glad I was able to help out.

No kidding? That is interesting and encouraging! I guess that shows that they are validating the votes, which probably is a very good sign. What time did they call you? I don't have any fake votes, (that I know of) so I have nothing to worry about. Their website encouraged us to get our friends and family to become Rockheads and vote for our ride and I did that exactly. I can't think of better friends than you guys.

I have not heard a word from them, so I guess that it will be tomorrow before I know something for certain. We were at the Dayton Dragons (Minor League) game tonight and I half expected to see a phone message on the recorder. But there was nothing.

Thanks a bunch for the help, guys!! Stay tuned...

ROTFL...! That was pretty good, huh? Too bad that it wasn't a clever thing to say and that it just popped into my head. 'Clever' isn't my strong point!!

72BlckButy · 06-19-2008, 10:52 PM

Well, if you win, we'll let them slide on paying you for that push for 96...

Interesting! I had not noticed that they changed the page. I last checked it at 5PM before we headed out to the ballgame. I have a screenshot from earlier today.

Big J · 06-19-2008, 11:04 PM

This is friggin' cool!!!! Wish my local station would do something like this. I was up that way yesterday and tuned in!

It's a good mix on that station and it is also the primary station that I listen to. These contests are pretty popular, s you may want to keep an eye out in you area. I have voted several times for people in other cities.

Thanks,

bouncytruck · 06-20-2008, 12:12 AM

So, did you win?

I haven't heard from them officially, but we did have the highest number of votes. Apparently they are validating votes, etc.

I should know something today!

jayharrell · 06-20-2008, 08:23 AM

I dont' see why your votes would come into question. To me its no different then if the guy with the mustang is a senior in high school and gets the whole school to vote for him. I think you've got this wraped up.

Good luck. Man this site is cool.

72BlckButy · 06-20-2008, 08:46 AM

I think what he means is that they are actually calling the phone numbers provided by the entrant (spelling, or if it's even a word

), and then calling them valid. I will need to check our email when I get home tonight to make sure I reply if they sent an email confirmation.

**nightmare** · 06-20-2008, 10:28 AM

Well the page shows that he won! That is cool. yeah, keep us updated with what you get done.

Big J · 06-20-2008, 10:51 AM

What a deal! You might consider donating all the old stuff they rip from your ride to the folks here on the board that are in need. Congrats man

. We wanna see pics. You should go ahead and start a thread in projects and builds with lots of current condition pics.

cool! although not a lot of votes altogether for such a large prize!

But glad you won!

I've check out steet lethal motosports webpage...

they specialize in

Lambo Doors

maybe some new wheels

doorpanels

hopefully they will take YOUR input as well.. and get it the way you want it...

jayharrell · 06-20-2008, 11:06 AM

I was hoping they would take his input too. Thats green cutless *i think its a cutless* scared me. You might end up with something like this.....

jayharrell · 06-20-2008, 11:07 AM

WOW. the site does show your the winner. Congrats man.

Is the $500 winner from the board?? Mike Ramstetter ??

Very cool.

**lks dcvn** · 06-20-2008, 11:25 AM

congrats buddy - nice to see that you won!

jorgensensc · 06-20-2008, 12:28 PM

Congrats!! If I may add something. I don't know what they plan on doing with it, but if it were me.... I would have them fix the body correctly with good metal, and have them paint it. That may very well eat up most of the 10 grand. Even if your burb doesn't look "pimped out" when they are done, the hardest and most expensive part is over. The interior and wheels/ engine can be done over time with smaller amounts of money. Kick ass stereos and lambo doors and nice wheels won't be worth anything on a ride if the package doesn't look good. And structurally the burb may not be able to take crazy body mods (lambo doors) if the rockers and other structural components aren't up to par. This is just my opinion. Congrats again!! I am thrilled that you won!!

IvelDesigns · 06-20-2008, 12:29 PM
