Re: September 2017 COTM **Nomination Thread**
I would like to nominate KFSullivan and his 1988 Trans am WS6. He's an active member with the COTM threads and has one very clean looking Trans Am. It was hard to pic just one of his pictures to show for his car. As a bonus, i dont think he's ever been nominated.

I would like to nominate Mgg4591 and his 86 sport coupe LS swap. Not sure if this car has been nominated but it is COTM worthy. Very nice job on the transformation from a base SC.

Thanks guys for the nomination. Much appreciated. There have been many awesome 3rd gens in the running each and every month this year. I'm sure this month will be no different.

Re: September 2017 COTM **Nomination Thread**
I was about to close this thread and post up the **Voting Thread**. Before doing so, I was going to second Bandit 1977. However, before doing that, I wanted to get a closer look - make sure the interior was as nice as the exterior.
I was unable to find any post or track down Bandit 1977's profile, here or using a Google search. It's actually an unoriginal (don't mean that in a bad way, but in a literal way) and therefore confusing username to have to run any kind of search on (you end up getting a lot of '77 Trans Am stuff).
Long story short - I can't find anything on his car, and even if I seconded his nomination, I would have no way to inform him that he's been nominated. So, I'm gonna put off the **Voting Thread** for one more day, and if somebody can provide a link to anything he's posted or get him to drop a line in this thread, I can hopefully get a better look at his car and at least have a way to inform him that he's been nominated. If by about this time tomorrow I still can't track down Bandit 1977 at all, then we'll roll with just the two members that have been nominated & seconded.
And I'm not going to go searching for inthesunset's info either.

Re: September 2017 COTM **Nomination Thread**
Some good action in the COTM Bait Thread lately...
I will no longer be able to second Bandit 1977's nomination because I'm nominating
punkmaster98 for his 1987 GTA.
I hope somebody seconds this by tomorrow.

Every time I look at this car I like it more. One of the best looking and best color-coordinated cars ive ever seen bar-none. Stunning car!

Re: September 2017 COTM **Nomination Thread**
Thanks, amfornal and inthesunset for providing the info on the IROC. Also, amfornal's IROC looks pretty sweet.
Unfortunately no second nominations were made and we have to move on to the Voting. I hope to see those IROCs in a future COTM contest.
