ProdigyCustoms

It is with great pleasure I announce that this year’s Prodigy Customs 2006 SEMA show car is indeed, “Eternity”! (Jagarang) Kevin Newcomer’s Badd Ass 69 Firebird! Like many of us Kevin has pretty much dreamed about some day having a car at “the big show”. Kevin and I talked about it, and Steve from Twist Machine had honored us by asking if we could display Eternity as his feature car at SEMA 2006. BTW, thanks Steve.
Here’s the cool part, this story has a special twist. Kevin really did not have the dollars in his budget to get the car from Florida to Las Vegas after the build picked his pocket clean. There was no way he could justify the cost of the trip with his wife and family, and I SWORE I would not haul another one out there this year! So as of a week ago it looked like a no go for SEMA.
It was last week though, I received a call from the most unlikely of suspects looking to do something special as Kevin’s Eternity comes to a end. Now we all know how “the wives” feel about these toys of ours. Many do not understand our infatuation or the moneys spent on………well…you know…. These stupid CARS! Kevin’s wife Maria was thought to have fallen into the same category.
Last week some of you may have seen I announced on the boards that Prodigy Customs would be taking another car to SEMA this year and that a unidentified benefactor had come forward to cover the expenses of getting “the yet to be announced” secret car to the show. Kevin saw the post and even called to see whose car it was. I gave him a line of crap about it being someone else’s car. He sounded disappointed. I am sure he was secretly hoping it was Eternity. I am 100% certain that he could have never have guessed WHO the benefactor could be if it were to be his car.
So, big drum role,
Damn this is cool!
Kevin, Maria is the unidentified benefactor that is supporting your SEMA trip!!!
And BTW, if this plays out right, she should be right over your shoulder, you better jump and up and squeeze her!
And Kevin, I know I lied to you yesterday. I hated it. I am sorry, but hopefully it is all worth it now.
And thank you Kevin for choosing Prodigy Customs to build such a killer car.
So now guys, go tell your Wives, TOP THIS!
Sincerely,
Frank, Lisa and Michael Serafine
