Welcome your new COTM editor

I'd like to welcome @alan91z28 as the next COTM Editor. Alan has been a long time contributor to the site with several build threads of 3rd gens from stock restorations to supercharged LS engines. You might remember one of his cars from last February when we did the "Saved from the Grave" COTM event. And more recently from the "I'm a Hoarder" COTM event. Yeah.... that guy!

I hope you all enjoyed the last year of COTM. I can truthfully say that I gave it my all and put my best foot forward. After a year I'm running out of fresh ideas and feel that things might get repetitive, so it's timely to rotate to somebody else that will keep the energy alive. I have no doubt Alan will knock it out of the park.

And I have to say, Thank You to everybody here because you all made it a great year. This site is full of wonderful people and everyone was very kind and encouraging and made it easy for me to do my job. Please behave just as good for Alan.

Re: Welcome your new COTM editor

Thanks QwkTrip. You have been such a great contributor to thirdgen.org and I have benefited from a lot of your knowledge you share in your build thread.

I am looking forward to being COTM editor for 2021 and hope to carry on your great tradition of interesting themes!

We have a great group here with a lot of impressive 3rd gens!
