October COTM **Nominations**
*Please read before posting*
*****SEPTEMBER 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 GOOD PHOTO of the vehicle (for others to possibly 2nd, 3rd, 4th the nomination).
***NEW***
- This month is for the CAMAROS!!! We had Firebirds last month and its only fair to have a month dedicated to these Camaros. Stock, modified, racer, lowrider... whatever! As long as its clean and you think it is one of your favorites! Nominate away!
Once a vehicle has been nominated, there is no need to post additional pics, but please post with members screen name as a second, third etc nomination.
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 nominations will be complied into a new thread the morning of September 15th, at which time poll format will be used to nominate the October car of the month. A car must receive more than one nomination be included in the voting process ***
Please see last months nomination thread for ideas on how this works....

Re: October COTM **Nominations**
I'm going out on a limb and nominating this car:

It belongs to: leedavidalan
I honestly don't know anything about this car. I did a search and found it....and thought it looked really nice. Never was a huge fan of the torque thrusts...but they work with this car.
Not even sure if he's an active member still....but I'm throwing it in the mix

Re: October COTM **Nominations**
I nominate Project89. Turbocharged 3.1L Camaro. Maui Blue and a true test on what a V6 can do.
First I love the color let alone whats under the hood. Its the car that personally inspired me to work on mine the way I did. Great car Dave.
I cant find any pics I can copy past at the moment of the engine itself but will link them soon.

Re: October COTM **Nominations**

I Nominate Bad's Z28, It's Way too Badass and it would Look Great as Octobers Car of the Month Especially with Halloween in mind, By Far My Favorite Z28, the '91-'92s and You Utilized Both of my Favorite Colors in a Combo I had never before seen That GM never Offered, Black with Dark Teal Metallic Stripes and Accents.
P.S. in case you didn't know my '92 Z28 is Dark Teal Metallic.

Re: October COTM **Nominations**
^there are firebirds worth seeing..but that was last month. this month is camaro only man. and MR.IROC-Z does have what appears to be an amazing ride, cant get over how clever it was to have slightly larger iroc wheels (to fit todays standards) in FACTORY color. i cant stand stand the chrome versions of THAT wheel. nicely done

Nominating Orr89RocZ
I'm also nominating Orr's twin turbo beast.
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/post...1-post743.html
I'll nominate 1bad406
Re: October COTM **Nominations**
I nominate 85maroZ28s car. He's owned it since 98, and although it may not be the best or the fastest on here, he has done a lot of work to it with the money he has. Here's the only decent pic I have right now...pictures do the car no justice, in person it is gorgeous and extremely clean inside and out. Some think the color combo is different, but when you see it in person it looks a lot different. Next thing on this list is a stock hood or SS hood.
