    Petersen's Automotive Sweepstakes ad from March 1982

    Mom was going through some boxes and found a Car Craft from March 1982. I was leafing through it and found this ad. I thought you guys might like to see it.

    I had a sparkomatic stereo in one of my first cars. Sounds about as cool as it is.

    It would be interesting to know who won the grand prize way back then.

    Closing date was the end of Nov 1982, so it must have been one of teh last few hundred cars. Need to get hold of a set of Car Craft magazines from the first half of 1983 and see if they had a winners announcement.

    Is this the same Petersens as the museum, and if so, do they archive their magazines?

    I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"
