August 2015 COTM **Nomination Thread**

PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM.
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.
  • Do not nominate more than one car.
  • Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car or to nominate multiple cars.
  • This is not a picture thread. Post only one (1) good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use a photo-edited picture.
  • You must post a picture with your nomination. This must be a full-sized picture (or at the very least, a pic or thumb that enlarges into a full-sized picture when you click on it).
  • Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate.
  • Correctly identify the year and model/trim of the car 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*****

Time Machines: If you like bone-stock, unmodified, factory original 3rd Gens, then this is your month. Any stock, unmodified, Camaro or Firebird can be nominated this month. As always, the nominees' cars must be in a high quality, finished state, whether restored or preserved.

Re: August 2015 COTM **Nomination Thread**

just in case anyone needs clarification, we're not requiring original "Delco" batteries or "factory correct overspray." aftermarket wires are okay.


No headers, or aftermarket performance parts. just stock performing and appearing cars.

I started to do that with this thread. https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/hist...low-miles.html


Somehow it petered out, though.

I had seen that. But you were looking for: "I'd like to assemble about 10-20, low miles, 95% or better, all original cars that we can use to reference with photos, for current and future restorers. Just factory originals."

There is a lot out there that have higher mileage factory originals. I have a 28k, 52k, and a 193k. All are factory, not modded and look pristine.

Maybe need to revisit the Thread and get it going again.

I say non-oem air filters, oil filters, spark plugs and stereo head units should be ok also. But no subwoofer cabinets.

Radios have gotten so good with bluetooth, more power and internet radio. I just couldn't resist replacing the old stock one. Plus I'm a music fan.

They are. A subwoofer is fine too.
1. You would have to pop the hatch to see the sub.
2. A sub can be removed in a matter of seconds.

Sorry about that Linson. His user name is scottmoyer. I thought everyone knew who he was.

I think his car was the poster child for some past GM event too.

I figure sometimes these things get buried under the next post. Just putting this IROC out there. As far as the criteria goes, this certainly fits the bill.

Many nominated, no winners.

Previous nominees include : I'llrocya, Gaspeddler, ScottMoyer, Chazman(different car) & MissMy86TA. IIRC

My black one has been nominated a couple of times. Always a brides maid, never a bride.

I thought I remembered your Yellow one nominated. Not the Black. Anyway, I still like the Sticker package delete IROC. Sorry for the mistake.

When was the last time you saw a mint, unmolested, base car.


Is this a sport coupe with a Berlinetta nose? I thought only the Berlinettas had the 3 slits in the nose. I know the Berlinettas got a digital gauge panel.

All the base cars, (non-Z) had that nose.

We'll, there's a point in time when you need to say to yourself, "Maybe it REALLY isn't THEM. Maybe it REALLY is ME!"

Re: August 2015 COTM **Nomination Thread**

Probably going to start the Voting Thread around the 20th - 21st. so there's still time for more or to second any who haven't received a second nom yet.


btw, that red Formula is super clean.
and I've always liked KMK454's B4C.
