My wife, Sherry, and I have owned Chevy Nomads since 1965. Danchuk Manufacturing has an annual Christmas Photo Contest. This year I submitted our 1956 Nomad. Out of the 1000's of entries submitted ours was not only selected as one of the eight finalists, the photo was also chosen for the cover of their Christmas Catalog. The finalists receiving the most votes from the public will win a $500 gift card. The vote will begin in a couple of weeks and run through mid January. I'm asking all my VCCA buddy to take a couple of minutes and vote for us. You can vote at: https://danchukusa.com/xmas-photo-contest-2019. I will update this post when the voting starts. Thanks to all.

Thanks guys (and gals). As they say in Chicago "Vote early and often." (Just kidding. It will only allow you to vote once, but you get the point.)

Yep got my vote too. I went to a local car show last fall with my 32 Special sedan,a lady came up to me and said it was down to my car and one other as to which one would be pictured on the dash plack next year. It would be nice to be picked.

Thanks RonPenn. Yeah, that is my favorite part of this hobby when other people appreciate your car. I posted this on this site and on the AACA forum and I am show committee chairman for the Fort Lauderdale AACA so I emailed it to 700 of my closest car buddies here in South Florida. Right now I'm kinda likin' my chances. Thanks to all who have voted so far.

I need your help guys. Thanks to those who already voted. But, as of 12/3 I'm in 5th place. I haven't seen any other threads on this topic so I'm assuming I'm the only VCCA member in the running. If everyone on the forum votes I should win by a landslide. I think if you go to the link provided you'll agree my photo is the most creative. Even the Danchuk staff thinks so as they chose it for the cover of their Christmas Catalog. Please go to https://danchukusa.com/xmas-photo-contest-2019 and cast your vote. Voting ends 12/8. Thank you

..........make that one more. I think this voting should have been made a sticky so everyone would see it.

The moderator, or admin, are the ones that can........if they know, or if they are allowed to! Send Peter a note or go to the IT or new user forum and post. Maybe its not to late. Some votes could move you on upppp.
