These six winners will join the 24 other weekly winners in a quest to be named the Grand Prize winner of the 30-week giveaway.
As title sponsor of the 2008 Giveaway, Snap-on has custom loaded the contest’s Grand Prize, a 34-foot Haulmark race trailer, with over $40,000 worth of tool storage and Snap-on tools, power tools and shop equipment, including the new F80 ratchet and variable length extensions, named Motor Magazine’s “Top 20 Tool of the Year.”

In addition to the storage and tools from Snap-on, the trailer includes product provided by Simpson, Lincoln Electric, Auto Meter, Goodridge, RH2way, Barry Grant, Champion System, Gemini, Mickey Thompson, Molecule, Safety Solutions, Nitrous Express and Holley.
