World of Wheels 2008
Auto Graphics and Legend Cars of Alberta were ecstatic over their
2nd Place finish and what made it even more gratifying was the fact
that Auto Graphics had less than one week to do there magic on the
#30 Auto Graphics Legend school racecar. This is Auto graphics 30th
year in the Graphics business and the #30 is proof of how good Pam
and everybody else at Auto Graphics are at what they do.
What is also interesting is the fact that 7 of the 8 Legend racecars
at the 2008 World of Wheels were done by Auto Graphics. |
