April 2013 COTM ** Nominations **
*Please read before posting*
***** April 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 open!!! Nominate your favorite 3rd gen. Modified, or stock. Camaro or Firebird
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 around March 15th, at which time poll format will be used to nominate the April 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....

I'd like to nominate DBLTKE. He has a sweet 91 Z28 that has one of the best stances on this board. Whatever wheel he runs, his car look sweet.

Well this sucks. I don't want to have to choose between possibly the cleanest '84 ever and possibly the sickest stanced third gen Camaro out there.

Re: April 2013 COTM ** Nominations **
Guys, I want to apologize for my absence over the past couple of months.
I came back to find out that my car had been nominated and actually made it to the voting process for February COTM but I was nowhere to be found because I had been CONSTANTLY wrenching on my car since June of 2011 taking it from rags to riches. It became my 24/7 obsession and I got tired. I got pissed and I needed a break.
But I'm back now and taking this COTM business very seriously.
Stay tuned, there's more to come. This is going to be a very interesting month for COTM.
Thanks Ron!

I love the final result of FiredemonSic, but DBLTKE is the ONE that inspire me for building my car, I love the stance, the mags, the home-made lip, everything! Another vote for DBLTKE!

There's a couple things in the first photo I didn't like but the second photo looks very sleek and clean. Which look did he end up staying with?

Re: April 2013 COTM ** Nominations **
I think either looks good depending on what you're into. Personally I'm more of an oldschool person and think the newer wheels and lip looks a bit too 2010ish for an older style car. But that's just me.
