Christmas has come and gone, and after a long journey Santa's herd of Porsche Caymans is now parked back in the jolly fat man's climate controlled garage. If you're like us, however, there's always one or two gifts we wanted that didn't find their way into the back of Santa's sleigh, so we're going to give you the chance to complete your family's Christmas with the Autoblog After Christmas Contest. Through the end of the week, we'll be giving away three prizes that we hope will erase your memories of gifts that were never gotten. Our bag of goodies includes a media gift pack with two books for the kids, R is for Race and When Henry Ford Met Santa, as well as something for the adults, a DVD copy of Grand Theft Auto: Tricked Out Edition, Ron Howard's directorial debut. The second prize is a complete set of heirloom quality Automoblox toy cars, and our grand prize is a Fisher Price Power Wheels Jeep Hurricane.
We're kicking off the sweepstakes today with the media pack shown at right, courtesy of Sleeping Bear Press and Roger Corman, the self-ascribed Reigning King of Independant Films. and entering is simple. All you need to do is leave a comment on this post telling us the one present you always wanted and never got from St. Nick. We'll accept entries for this first drawing for 24 hours, or until 2:59PM EST on Wednesday, December 26th.
