Artistic Body & Paint has two additional Chief frame racks and a Chief computerized measuring system.
 
The shop reports: “Chief representatives still come by on a regular basis and take good care of us. Thank you, Chief!”
 
Bryant’s prize includes airfare for two, three nights at the Flamingo Las Vegas, two SEMA badges and $500 spending money.
 
The “Show Us Your Chief Equipment” campaign continues through the end of the year. Customers can enter the weekly drawing for anniversary merchandise by posting photos or stories about their Chief frame racks, measuring systems, accessories, training or support to Chief’s Facebook page. The photos and stories can be of any Chief equipment, regardless of age.
