February 2016 COTM **Nominations**PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM. REMEMBER, WE MUST PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONTEST SO THAT THE MOST DESERVING MEMBER WINS.
This thread is a Nomination Thread to nominate cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The 10 (or less) most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *Voting Thread* in a couple of weeks. If you do not nominate a member's car for COTM, you can still second or third (fourth, fifth, so on) someone else's nomination. Cars must have at least a second nomination in order to make the Voting Thread.
Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO Member.
Do not ask your wife, husband, friends, extended family, etc. to register as TGO Members for the purpose of nominating your car.
Do not nominate more than one car.
Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car or to nominate multiple cars.
This is not a picture thread. Post only one (1) good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use a photo-edited picture.
You must post a picture with your nomination. This must be a full-sized picture (or at the very least, a pic or thumb that enlarges into a full-sized picture when you click on it).
Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate.
Correctly identify the year and model/trim of the car you nominate.
Do not nominate cars that are not in a high quality, finished state.
And if you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your ride (multiple angles, interior, engine) and make them publicly accessible (for example via a photo album in your public profile or some sort of hyperlink to your photo album.)
*****This Month's Criteria*****
Old School: Any 1982, 1983, or 1984 Camaro or Firebird. It can be bone stock. It can be heavily modified, or anywhere in between.
I'd like to nominate FJA1791 and his awesome '84 Z28. Low mile, rare interior, 5.0L HO 5-speed, hardtop. A friend of mine had a similar car in high school that I have many fond memories of
I would like to nominate Kymee and her 1982 MSE. Beautiful!!
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.
Hell no. She never really appealed to me with that frizzy hair even back then. The woman who DID was the one in the (I believe) 1989 Camaro brochure, alongside that red IROC.

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!
Thanks for the nomination, but the other 84 Z28s in this post are more worthy. Mine is rough around the edges. Will be a long time, if ever, that is gets restored back to the condition of the other three.
I'll nominate FJA1791 with hardtop, L69, T-5, and great brown Conteur seating.

Thank you for noticing, and bringing that up, Kymee.
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.

You'd still hit it though, right?
