August 2021 COTM "Open Season" **Nomination Thread**

This is a Nomination Thread for cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a Voting Thread within a couple weeks.

You can either nominate somebody else's car, or second a nomination (but not both). Cars must have a second nomination in order to make it to the Voting Thread.

Nomination Guidelines
  • Nominations must be of high quality, finished state, and in working order. No unrealistic, overly processed images. Please accompany the nomination with,
    • a single large, high quality photo
    • name of TGO member (with proper caps and spaces)
    • year, make, and model of car
  • Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO member. Cars must have a second nomination in order to continue to the Voting Thread.
  • Likewise, do not ask another family member or friend to join TGO for the purpose of nominating your car. Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car.
  • Do not nominate more than one car.
  • If you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your car (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 category ***

OPEN SEASON -- Any very high quality, finished, stock or modified 82-92 Camaro or Firebird

Thank you very much. This is my first nomination. No matter the outcome, it is a privilege to be included.

Re: August 2021 COTM "Open Season" **Nomination Thread**

About the car.... It is a 1991 5.7 in Dark Green Metallic. I acquired it in January 2021 out of Nevada. It originally is from Wisconsin, but was brought to Oregon in 2001. In 2010, it was sold to the gentleman I purchased it from while he lived in Arizona. He is a pilot for American Airlines, and took it with him when he transferred to Nevada until I purchased it this year. It has been pampered most of it's life, but still driven. It currently has just over 75K miles on the clock, and has a few paint chips from being driven, but overall is in nice condition. The body is laser straight and the underside is very clean. I have attached some additional photos. Thank you again for the nomination.
