And the winner is...

I must compliment the artisans who took what I would call scrap and rebuilt them into showpieces. You all have gifts and talents I could only dream of.

You that can polish an Airstream into a mirror. Wow. With that type of determination and sticktoitivness you could rule the world.

Runners up:

2nd, Doorgunners Airstream Gunship in post #69. This is just wrong.
1st, 48liner in post #29. Now thats style!

Grand prize winner is........

Mookie (TOWPEDO) By far had the biggest improvement in the before and after in post #146.

Congradulations Mookie!

Mookie, PM me with your address for the $5.00
You also need to PM the nice people and Companies for the prizes they have donated.

Remember all that Balgrn (who did a helluva job on that Argosy MH) is running the Nov. Contest on another thread so get your submissions in there.

Congratulations to all the winners. I personally blame the PO of my trailer for keeping it in such good shape that I did not have a good before picture!

Who, ME?!

Hey Goin' Camping - I'm honored... many thanks!!

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at the Academy; my wife, Elizabeth, for her unwavering support; my dog, Jet, for sticking with me through the tough times; Wally Byam, without whom none of this could have happened; and last, but not least, I'd like to thank the great state of Oregon for their beautiful beaches, and Adobe for Photoshop.

Now Tim,

Don't be upset. Remember all that cash and prizes will bump mookie up a couple of tax brackets. All the fans and groupies will play heck on his personal life. It'll be like that show on Lottery winners that go broke. Most people just can't handle the sudden fame and fortune of an Airtsream photo contest win.

Mookie, before you do anything check with your tax advisor on how to invest your new fortune.

Tim, Since this is a family forum are you sure your avatar of your shiny balls is family friendly?

Perhaps you should consider your "Gunship" photo? it would fit your handle better.

Mookie’s t-shirt is in the mail. Don’t be disappointed if you didn’t win, just try again in the November contest. There’s another great t-shirt up for grabs, along with the cash windfall.
Bragging rights are eternal!

He's Out of Control!

This is Elizabeth, Mookie's wife. I'm sorry to say that fame has gone to his head. He's already started working on his next career move:

Hopefully, this will generate the additional dough to offset our new tax bracket.
