That's ANY high quality Camaro or Firebird.
Stock, modified, Iron Duke, Firehawk... doesn't matter.

Re: October 2014 COTM *NOMINATION THREAD*
Since I am up this month, I think it is only fair that the main inspiration to my build gets nominated as well! I would like to nominate 68strat with his killer 83 Sport Coupe

Re: October 2014 COTM *NOMINATION THREAD*
Just curious, does everyone just go through the albums/garages to find cars to nominate? Just wondering how cars are being noticed.

Re: October 2014 COTM *NOMINATION THREAD*
Nope, when I nominate a car, it's from either seeing it in a tread on here (usually a build thread), MM on Facebook, or someone who I've personally met.

Re: October 2014 COTM *NOMINATION THREAD*
I feel out of the loop. I guess I need to get back to the site more often because more and more often the nominations are cars I had never seen before
