Christopher Kirby already had the plans. His 2017 JK Unlimited was the canvas and he was looking forward, over the next year or so, to sculpting out the vehicle with his modification brush. Tweaking and adjusting it to the very image he had in mind.

And then with one phone call, those plans accelerated just a bit.

Kirby, from West Chester, PA, recently captured the top prize in Quadratec's February Sweepstakes sponsored by Smittybilt, receiving a $2,000 product credit towards any part or accessory in the Smittybilt line. Two other winners, Gary Roberts (CT) and Michael Fells (PA), claimed the other winning spots and took home $750 and $250 respectively.

"I was extremely surprised and pleased to be notified that I won Quadratec's February Giveaway Top Prize," Kirby said. "I had a 2016 two door Willys and traded it in for a 2017 JK four door, specifically so that I can customize it. I've already added Quadratec Rubicon Wheels with 33" Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ tires, a TACTIK Adjustable Spare Mount with Hinge Reinforcement, and Quadratec all-weather floor mats."

February's Smittybilt sponsored contest accumulated over 18,000 entries, and was the first in a series of monthly sweepstakes Quadratec will hold over the remainder of 2017. March entry information is available here.

"Smittybilt is very excited to see what this month's winner, Christopher Kirby, will do with his $2000 credit to that beautiful 2017 JK Unlimited he purchased," said Brad Senesac, Director of Marketing for Transamerican Manufacturing Group. "We will be looking forward to posting the progress and the final product on the Smittybilt Facebook page. Congratulations Christopher!"

For Kirby, he is already set on a modification direction.

"I'm looking forward to adding a Smittybilt bumper with winch, and getting Smittybilt SRC Tube Doors for the summer," he said.
