The votes are in, they've been counted, re-counted and counted again with a calculator to be sure, and I'm REALLY excited to announce the winners of the 2017 Name Game Contest! Thank you to everyone who got involved, whether it was finishing a build, almost finishing a build, submitting a name, offering encouragement, or just voting. You guys are the BEST! Thank you so much for taking part everyone!
The voting was incredibly close - to the point that even as the last couple of votes came in last night it was still a tie....and, in fact, that's how it ended too! It was really exciting to keep seeing the scores roll in over the past week, and we actually had TWO winners, tied exactly for first place. Not only that, but second place was a tie too! Incredible! Sooooooooo (drum roll please...), your winners are......

In tied second place The Valhalla Wagon (by me) and The Little Italy (by Bugaboo)...
In tied first place, our winners....the Big Kahuna (also by Bugaboo)
And the Mod Rod by Jerry G
Congrats guys! Our third place build was 41chevy's Space Street Rod - congrats Paul!
Thanks to everyone who entered!
I had a prize for the winner and DVS had one for second place I'll suggest we give those to our two tied-winners Bugaboo and Jerry (send me your addresses guys so we can get a prize out to you both). Brandon also had a prize for the top three, but I'm going to suggest that we give one each to Bugaboo and Jerry and Paul-41-chevy if that's cool with everyone. So, Paul, send me your address too or send it to Brandon and he's going to send you a little something as well.
We still have Daryl Starbird's pick to come once he's chosen it - the winner of that prize will receive a personalized certificate signed by Darryl - thanks to Jerry for arranging that! Too cool man!
And, finally, to announce our Golden Ticket details seeing as I know a bunch of you were SUPER excited to hear about that...I made contact with Tom Daniel and asked if he'd contribute a name that we could put in the hat, and he kindly came back and suggested Tas-tee. Builder dirtydave was the lucky recipient of Tom's name, and you can see the progress on his build here
Thanks again to EVERYONE who took part, it's been a BLAST! I had the best time! A couple of you have messaged and said we should have some sort of contest to finish our unfinished builds - so all you guys who still have a name to finish (including me), lets see those builds come together!
Until next time - happy building, Klowns!
