September 2021 COTM "Custom Hoods" **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 ***

Custom Hoods -- Any very high quality, finished, modified with Custom Hood 82-92 Camaro or Firebird

I'll second Ron USMC. I have always liked that car for a multitude of reasons; the hood is in that list. Cool.
