"Just imagine the holiday spirit you could create driving around town with this on the front of your Camry," said contest judge Petty, former NASCAR driver turned racing analyst who is member of one of NASCAR's pioneer families. "There are some really creative, talented painters at Maaco who developed these designs. I'd love to have one of these to hang in my garage."

Petty reviewed the creative entries from Maaco locations across the country to pick his favorites based on design, talent and technique. The winners are:

1.       Maaco Burleson, TX

2.       Maaco Kirkwood, MO

3.       Maaco Greenville, NC

"All of these paint schemes were amazing," said Petty. "You can tell from the detailed designs and incredible technique that it took more than 12 days to paint these hoods! I selected the Maaco Greenville hood because of their excellent ghosting technique with the stars and tree line. I picked the Maaco Kirkwood entry because it told a story of coming home for Christmas. And I chose the winner, Maaco Burleson because of the details of Santa's Workshop – and it featured my favorite paint color, Petty Blue!"
