This is Auto-Wares’ fourth year of holding the customer ride calendar contest. Customers of Auto Value and Bumper to Bumper Parts Stores are encouraged to submit a photo of their vehicle for a chance to be featured for one month in the calendar. The winning photos then make up the 12 months of the year. The cover photo of the calendar features that year’s Frankenmuth Auto Fest – Auto Value Pick winner.
About the Contest
Auto-Wares holds a calendar contest annually for customers who are 18 and up. Employees, suppliers, and family members are ineligible to win however they do have a separate contest they can enter to be featured on the last page of the calendar alongside other employees.
This contest gives our loyal customers a chance to win car-related prizes and display their unique and classic cars. We also like to think of it as a way of giving back to them through all the support they give us.
The way this works is there are two phases: Submissions and Voting. In phase one candidates had a month to submit their high-quality and appropriate photos. Once the submission deadline is reached, it is time to cast votes. The voting is open for two weeks and one vote per IP address, per day, is allowed. The 12 most popular voted photos are named the winners, who will be featured for one month on the calendar
