When Kevin Na won the 2019 Charles Schwab Challenge, in addition to the trophy and an oversized first-place check, he was awarded a fully-restored and rebuilt 1973 Dodge Challenger.
Na later gave the hot rod to his caddie Kenny Harms.
The car was a complement to the iconic Leonard Trophy and Scottish tartan plaid jacket. The Challenger prize was also a first for the tournament and was designed to celebrate the year Schwab was founded, the challenging nature of the course at Colonial and the challenging spirit of the event and its players.
In 2021, tournament organizers are giving away another vehicle, but this time, it’s a customized 1946 Schwab Power Wagon.
It’s a custom build by Legacy Classic Trucks. This truck has original, striking features, like Schwab-branded brightwork and a Colonial-inspired interior. The 1946 Schwab Power Wagon is a complete “resto-mod,” meaning it looks like an old truck and drives like a new one.
A vehicle from 1946 was chosen to commemorate the 75th year of the tournament.
The vehicle sports a 6.2-liter engine that churns out 430hp, a 4-speed automatic transmission, a custom transfer case and 40-inch custom tires. It’s also been modernized with air-conditioning, disc brakes, a long travel suspension, a 12,000-pound winch and custom tailgate and the signature Schwab Blue paint.
On Sunday, maybe some lucky caddie with be awarded a new ride once again.
