SAN RAMON, Calif., July 27, 2007 - Chevron Global Marketing today launched Texaco's Car of the Decades contest celebrating cars and the people who love them with a virtual auto show that lets visitors decide the best cars from every decade in the 20th century through today. During the Texaco Car of the Decades submission process, which concludes September 3, auto enthusiasts can register online at www.texacocarofthedecades.com <http://www.texacocarofthedecades.com/> to enter their favorite car for a chance to win a grand prize package featuring VIP treatment at the launch of the 2008 season at Daytona, including a tour of the No. 42 Texaco/Havoline garage, the pit and a chance to meet driver Juan Pablo Montoya.
