Greybeard Promotions, Inc. and Chrome Auto Insurance are pleased to announce the winner of “The Crème de la Chrome Award”. “The Crème de la Chrome Award” was presented for the first time ever at the most notable indoor automotive event in the Rocky Mountain Region, The 15th Annual Rocky Mountain Rod & Custom Car Show. The annual event took place Thanksgiving weekend at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado.
Over 150 vehicles competed for the award at The 15th Annual Rocky Mountain Rod and Custom Car Show. In the end, the Butterscotch Yellow 1932 Ford Three-Window Coupe owned by Phil and Deb Becker earned the prestigious award. The vehicle was built by Dave Lane of Fast Lane Hot Rod Shop in Donahue, Iowa. As the recipients of “The Crème de la Chrome Award”, Phil and Deb Becker earned a cash prize in the sum of $5,000. They also received national recognition, a 15th Annual Crème de la Chrome Rocky Mountain Rod and Custom Car Show winner’s jacket and the chance to be enshrined on a one-of-a-kind trophy, designed by fine automotive artist, Darrell Mayabb.
“The Crème de la Chrome Award” is sponsored by Chrome Auto Insurance and is what would be commonly referred to as “Best of Show”. The award was designed to recognize the dedicated individuals who take pride in the vehicles that they design, build, customize, restore and display. In addition to the prizes mentioned above, the recipient of the award will be forever enshrined on a piece of art for all to see. Once completed, the original trophy will stand nearly 8 feet tall. A “smaller” version (a one and only replica) will be produced each year, for the recipient to proudly display.
