Body Shop Business Announces Winners of Photo Contest

Body Shop Business Announces Winners of “Most Interesting Places” Contest

Back in June, we asked you to send us a photo of yourself reading Body Shop Business in an interesting, unique and maybe wacky place. And boy did you respond!

Body Shop Business is excited to announce the winners of the “Most Interesting Place I’ve Read Body Shop Business” photo contest.

We launched the contest back in June, hoping to have some fun with you, our readers, and frankly we didn’t know what to expect. We just hoped we didn’t get a picture of someone enjoying our magazine while responding to the call of nature! Fortunately, that didn’t happen.

Larry Terrien, general manager of MJ Collision Center in Green Bay, Wis., sent in a photo of himself catching up on the latest issue of the magazine on his BMW R1200RT while cruising through Glacier National Park. And that earned him first place and $100!

John Gustafson, president of Gustafson Brothers, Inc., in Huntington Beach, Calif., won second place and $75 for a photo of himself kicking back in his boat with his wife while on Lake Mead, Nev. That’s the ideal place for him to relax and read his favorite magazine!

Third place winner John Mosley, owner of Clinton Body Shop, getting cozy in his Beechcraft A36 Bonanza.

Third place and 50 smackers went to John Mosley, owner of Clinton Body Shop in Clinton, Miss. Mosley sent in a snapshot of him getting all cozy with BodyShop Business in his 1928 Travel Air Biplane. No stranger to flying, Mosley gave military vets free flights last Veteran’s Day in three WWII aircrafts.

Congrats to all the winners, and thanks for your continued loyalty, making Body Shop Business the No. 1 trade magazine in the collision repair industry!
