Contest #94: Rex's Ride: contest over

**Rex Raider** · 04-21-2006, 07:42 AM

A little non-GM this week

Take the picture below and modify it any way that you want. Change colors, looks, background, etc...

The changes can be serious or silly. The changes don't have to make the car more desirable, they just have to make it different.

You are showing off your creativity and your chopping skills.

You must use the original picture as your starting point. Try to keep some semblance of the original pic.

Only 1 entry per person, and NO revisions. Once you've entered, that's your entry.

Chopping is anonymous!:

Do NOT post your images here in this thread. Instead, E-mail them to: sales@sub500.com.
Do not send a link to the picture. Send the picture itself. Please send it in JPG format. Please do not write your name anywhere in your picture.
In your e-mail (but not your picture) please include your user name, even if you think that I know who you are.

You have until Thursday at Midnight to submit your entries, so there is no need to rush right away. Quality takes time. Voting will start on Friday.

Same rule in effect. If you enter, you MUST vote. Contestants that do not vote will be penalized.

Here's the pic to modify:

Does this mean we might expect some non-GM vehicles in the coming contests?

**Rex Raider** · 04-21-2006, 08:07 AM

I play it by ear. But this is GMI. I like to keep things GM related whenever I can.
But it's also good to mix things up once in a while.

Also, that's not really MY car, just a similar one I found online.

Bravada · 04-21-2006, 09:46 AM

Why won't you just photo your car? Is it pink or what? Or are you fearing vandalism from extreme GM fans?

**Rex Raider** · 04-21-2006, 10:12 AM

Mine is silver, just like that one. Just didn't have a picture available.

Hmmm how about another possibility of taking pics of our choppers cars, (which they submit to you) and have entered in the contest to be chopped up...

I have an absolutely great idea for next year's April Fool's. Why do I have to wait 11.33 months?

Um, yes. Hence the signature. and the multiple threads regarding my purchase of it.
The main reason I bought it, is purely for fuel economy. It's a diesel, and I drive more than 120kms a day. Style wise, it's not what I would normally get. But the price was right, and it really suits my needs.
That said, I actually enjoy driving it.

camaro_freak · 04-21-2006, 02:35 PM

I was just a little surprised

I figured administrating a pro-GM site you'd be driving a GM vehicle...

**Rex Raider** · 04-21-2006, 03:57 PM

I have owned my share of GM vehicles. GM doesn't have anything right now with the gas mileage I need. I work at a Toyota dealer, and refused a Corolla demo.

camaro_freak · 04-21-2006, 09:48 PM

fair enough...

GM has their work cut out for sure...
