Here is the Press release from Mooneyes about their 2012 show in December:
1. BORN
FREE 4 (USA) BEST IN SHOW
On June 30, 2012, the motorcycle event "Born Free 4" will take place in Oak Canyon Ranch, California. We are excited to announce that the winning motorcycle from Born Free 4 will be brought to Japan for the YOKOHAMA HOT ROD CUSTOM SHOW 2012 (HCS2012)! The Born Free show has been the revival of high quality show bikes and authentic choppers. Builders across the USA have gravitated towards this event each year and it has been gaining in popularity each year. This year, the Best in Show will be here at HCS2012 for your viewing pleasure.
2. SPECIAL GUESTS FROM ABROAD
Each year at HCS, the main attraction has been the special guests from abroad. It's still early to know at this time but we are working on a list right now and will make an official announcement soon.
3. AIR-CQQLED IN ACTION - SPECIAL SECTION SPOTLIGHT
HCS2012 Car Show Special Section "Spotlight" (Previous years included "Slammed Zone" trucks etc.). This year we present a special section spotlight titled, "Air-CQQLED in Action" which will compile an area inside the car show space featuring air-cooled Volkswagens. Welcoming all styles in this spotlight area including slammed, old school, Cal-look, custom, race cars and more. The theme is "in action" and we want to assemble air-cooled VWs of all types!
4. EARLY DAYS CHOPPER EXTRAVAGANZA - SPECIAL SECTION SPOTLIGHT
Each year the Special Section Spotlight for motorcycles has changed, including SR, Multi and British Customs. This area for HSC2012 is titled, "Early Days Chopper Extravaganza" which will be focused on '60s and early '70s style choppers. With no set theme on machine type, it's wide open and promises to compile a full range of wild motorcycles! So what exactly is '60s & '70s style? It could be anything, it's doesn't have to be vintage, as long as it's styled to the theme of '60s & '70s! American, Japanese Domestic, British or European makes, it's possible! During this period, choppers were introduced in Japan, so of course Japanese bikers, customs and early days of choppers are also exceptional!
5. CUSTOM PAINT HUB CAP CONTEST (Size Up to 15")
Previous custom paint contests included fuel tanks and helmets. HCS2012 will be the third custom paint contest and the selected "canvas" is a hub cap (wheel cover). Of course, the contest is open to anyone willing to give it a try, professional painters to amateurs. Size limit of the hub cap is limited 15" but it can be just about any type of hub cap. Be creative and have fun, first with the selection of a hub cap!
6. 80TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE DEUCE - 1932 FORD
This year marks the 80th Anniversary of the 1932 Ford. Shows across the USA have been celebrating with excitement and now we will have a featured spotlight right here at HCS2012 for the Deuce.
