Yup, this is a legit request.
On a whim I posted some pics and a write up on my old coupe to NYTimes, and I was selected as a finalist.
As to the process of selection and the prizes for the winner($5k, feature article, trophy, certificate), all I know is what's provided in the link below.
>My car is the one titled Fast Red Coupe.Pics are so-so; I think the write-up is what got me selected (thanks go to the late Hunter S. Thompson for the writing technique).
>The correct web site is http://collectiblecars.nytimes.com/Contest/Vote.asp
(If this link doesn't work, you may need to copy and paste into your browser.)
>To vote, you'll need to register. (I've been registered with the NYT for years, and never gotten any related spam.)
Once registered, just click on my car, then click on the vote button.
>You can vote once per day, from now thru Dec 30.
Vote early and vote often!
If I should win, you can bet the pic in the Times will include Max (who's now 2 1/2) and Kade (who's now 8 months) and a long black patch of rubber behind the car.
Pls feel free to forward.
Thanks!
Jeff
