January 2015 COTM **Nominations**
PLEASE READ THE RULE LIST. THE LIST STARTED SMALL BUT PEOPLE ALWAYS SEEM TO WANT TO PUSH THE ENVELOPE. IF ITS ON THE LIST, ITS BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE TRIED IT. REMEMBER, WE MUST PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONTEST SO THAT THE MOST DESERVING MEMBER WINS.
This thread is a Nomination Thread to nominate cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The 10 (or less) most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *Voting Thread* in a couple of weeks. If you do not nominate a member's car for COTM, you can still second or third (fourth, fifth, so on) someone else's nomination. cars must have at least a second nomination in order to make the Voting Thread.
Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO Member.
Do not ask your wife, husband, friends, extended family, etc. to register as TGO Members for the purpose of nominating your car. If you are nominated, do not ask people to register as TGO Members for the purpose of voting for your car.
Do not nominate more than one car.
Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car, nominate multiple cars, vote for your own car, or vote multiple times.
This is not a picture thread. Post only ONE good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use photo-edited pictures.
You must post a picture with your nomination.
Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate.
Do not nominate cars that are not in a high quality, finished state.
And if you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your ride (multiple angles, interior, engine) and make them publicly accessible (for example via a photo album in your public profile or some sort of hyperlink to your photo album.)
*****This Month's Criteria*****
RILE UP THE BASE!!! Any high quality, finished state, stock or modified Camaro or Firebird that that is of a trim level less than Z28/IROC, or Formula/TA/GTA. Body modifications/upgrades are fine, but no Z28/IROC/Formula/TA/GTA clones.

Re: January 2015 COTM **Nominations**
this month's criteria is my attempt at fullfilling the requested "Sport Coupe month." since this month's criteria also allows for RS, Iron Duke, Berlinetta, and all your baser 'Birds, we should have an easier time getting a respectable list of nominees than if it were ONLY Sport Coupes.
as always, if you have a suggestion you can address it with me privately or publicly. either way, i will address it whether your suggestion is great, good, unlikely, or un-useable.

Re: January 2015 COTM **Nominations**
Wasn't expecting this to be the criteria for a CotM. Didn't seem like enough interest was there.
I would like to say good job to[B]LINSON[B] for trying different things. I think selecting different categories brings out new and different cars that many of us have never seen before.
Thank you for the nomination, MAK!

Wow. As honored as I am to be nominated for the 3rd time this year, I think I am going to step down this month. I would like to nominate 68strat and his 83 sport coupe!

Re: January 2015 COTM **Nominations**
lets see...so we have two nominations with no "seconds" and one guy that was nominated and wants to bow out, but then got like five "seconds..."
where are all the SC (and base) fans at? I seem to remember people were asking for this theme a while back.

Yeah, that's why I replied to that nomination several days ago to indicate it doesn't qualify:

Awesome ! 
My first - but not my only - Thirdgen. (There's always somethin' special about your first !!) I'm linking to the same pic that RollerRockin posted,...... ( You guys should see his Thirdgen - an 86 IROC )
I'm a little surprised there aren't a lot more Coupes being submitted.

What do you mean T/a? it has clear signal lights, that's the only difference between the berli and sport coupe in the front bumper
