As much as I appreciate the nomination, I also believe in playing by the rules and the MSE is not really MY car, its hubby's, although I drive it occasionally and keep her in tip top shape. I request to bow out gracefully. Thanks.

Nice nominations so far, but I'd like to nominate Saxondale and his 84 Z28 HO 5-speed! A true stunning original car with the contour interior even!

The rules actually state that a member who has won COTM cannot be nominated again for a full calendar year.
Normally though, a previous winner being nominated isn't something that I personally "like" to see.
However, given the nature of this year's contests, where we are focused on determining the best in particular types, it is more appropriate than it would otherwise be to nominate a previous COTM winner.
