TGO Car of the Month (Nominations)
*Please read before posting*
*****January Nominations*****
This thread is designed as a nomination board to narrow down to the top ten thirdgens found on this board. This is not a picture thread to post pictures of your own vehicle, and you cannot nominate your own vehicle. To nominate a member you must provide a user name and post a photo of the vehicle (for others to possibly 2nd, 3rd, 4th the nomination).
Once a vehicle has been nominated, there is no need to post additional pics, but please post with members screen name as a vote for the car or the month.
One nomination per member. So please do not list of your top 20 favorite cars... think about this, it will be an honor, pick one. If multiple nominations are made by a single member, I will only count the first posted member when creating a tally.
*** The 10 or less cars with the most votes will be complied into a new thread the morning of Dec 19th, at which time poll format will be used to nominate the January car of the month ***
I hope that this format will work out, as we are all trying something new here. If you do not like how this thread is going or have complaints about this threas... please post those comments in the previous Nicest Car on the Board thread (as to not clutter this thread for the users that want to try this). I will monitor both threads as possible.

Re: TGO Car of the Month (Nominations)
IF we are doing this for the first time, I'd say Spike-Z's car since its generallly the cleanest frame up car on here
OR
Neil's 454 lsx thirdgen. Its the largest viewed thread on TGO. It has to be considered the top car on this site from its following.

Wannab03ss would be a nice addition to the list. I drool over Sean's ride everytime I go buy something from him..
Everyone that is anyone has probably been mentioned already. Another ride I like is the one Hawks built. A black formula I saw a while ago, forgot whos it was.

I'm going with BlueZee28. It just really stands out to me as unique and clean. Has a lot of heart in it for him.

Re: TGO Car of the Month (Nominations)
This was a tough one...but one car that always 'wows' me is "NufNuffZ28' car. I love the aggressive styling and the ground effects splitters! There isn't much I would do differently to this car.

Re: TGO Car of the Month (Nominations)
Hey BADNBLK,this was a great idea!
My vote hands down goes to...
Sickness91Z28
I absolutely love his car! Its amazing! And so sharp! I gotta say, I've wanted mine to look pretty close to that for years before I ever saw his and when I did see his, I almost died of jealousy! Definitely gets my first vote.
But dont worry guys, there are several others that I really like (they know who) but gotta wait till the next go around...
