Vice Grip Garage's 1971 Chevelle: a modified coupe built for the racetrack

A modified 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle with a $10,000 cash stipend is the grand prize in the Vice Grip Garage giveaway. The rules value the car at $30,000 and state that it is for racetrack use only.

Vice Grip Garage describes itself as a small Tennessee family garage that rescues and restores old metal, and this giveaway puts a Chevelle from that world on the table. The official artwork shows a blue coupe from the front three-quarter, round headlights and bowtie grille facing the camera.

The rules call the prize a modified 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle and say the winner acknowledges that some of its components are preowned. They publish no engine, transmission or modification list, so what the modifications are is not something the campaign pages answer. The car is awarded as is, and the promotional photographs are described as illustrative, so the pictured car may not be the one delivered.

If you win: the $10,000 cash stipend is part of the grand prize, bringing the stated total to $40,000. The rules say the Chevelle is for racetrack use only and does not meet US standards for street vehicles. The winner covers licensing, insurance, title, registration and pickup or transport, takes delivery at a GForce Media-specified location within thirty days of notice of availability, and receives an IRS Form 1099 for the total value. Odds depend on how many entries arrive, and no cap is published.

Prize details are as described by the sponsor and its official rules. WTW has not inspected or driven the vehicle.
