Thanks to all who sent in their pictures for the first AirSpeed decal contest. Although we had many people say they were sending in a pic in the end we only had four photos sent in.
We only have a first place in this contest but next time we will have more prizes and hopefully more entries.
The four we did get were all great and deserve to be noted! The number one place some say can be seen from outer space (the location that is)
Starting in Third place is Matt from AutoMATTic autobody, We sure hope you took that off before business hours :P
It seems Matt placed a AirSpeed decal on AVR's (local VW parts shop to him) front door.

Second place!
Yes it's true Mr Smack Talk actually sent in a pic for the contest, in fact he sent us two (I know it's amazing).
Here is the caption sent with this pic.
The machine that you see the sticker on is a Machinists Mill circa 1930's - This machine was the actual one used to build the \"Enola Gay\" (B29 Bomber that dropped the A bomb on Horishima during WWII). Stangely enough Vanship purchased this machine nearly 30 years ago and recently the Smithsonian has made an offer to purchase it for their new display of the B29. This is the machine that I used to cut holes in my T Bars too.

Shane from Point Blank.
Shane sent us a few photos as well but this is by far the best!
When his wife went on a trip to China he asked.. \"Honey could you please go stick one of these decals on the Great Wall of China? Oh yeah and dont get cought or they will lock you up and take a bamboo shoot and cane you......Pretty please?\"

So there you have it, our vote for #1 is the AirSpeed decal on the Great wall of China, Where will they turn up next?

How the crap can you compete with that!!!! Nice job Shane, kinda looks like the temple in Richmond though.... B)
-
Com' on James we all know you cant back your smack....Man and I was looking forward to seeing Fablous shots/naked women.....
To set the record straight I asked Amanda to place the sticker on a Buddha however you can not even touch one there. And Taking a picture would have forsure got her the Bamboo whip..... :huh:
Now I should get in there and get that prize so I can get it wrapped for Amanda for Christmas.... ;)
-
Oh I'm sure my wife would have won with the airspeed bathingsuit. Too bad she has turned into a modest wife... and not the wild one she used to be.
