December 2021 COTM "Second Chance" **Voting Thread**

Over the course of 2021 we have clearly had some incredible third gens nominated that in the end were not awarded the COTM due to the intense competition and high quality of all the nominations.

For the December 2021 COTM we are going to have the nominees be the third gens from each month (starting with February COTM as January was the 2020 redemption thread) that came in second place and clearly deserve a second chance at the title. We have a wonderful slate, please look over the field (I have attached links to the prior voting threads). Second Chance Nominees feel free to post some additional info on your wonderful third gens in this thread to help with the voting!

I request to be withdrawn from this vote as I no longer own the car. Thanks for the opportunity, but I don't want to take votes away from others.

Thanks Chris. I didn't need to win the contest here. I have plenty of awards that I can look back at for both cars. It's just funny that I never won COTM. Always beat out by a better car!

Re: December 2021 COTM "Second Chance" **Voting Thread**

I'll send this thread TTT with a few pics and info. My car is a 1986 IROC-Z with 19k actual miles. It's all original other than the tires, battery, and it has a Flowmaster cat back exhaust system with factory style slash cut tailpipes. It has the TPI 305, auto, t-tops, posi, 4 wheel disc brakes, 3.23 rear gears, custom cloth seats, overhead console, etc. Loaded up about as good as it gets for a 1986. The paint is all original, and looks new. There's not a ding in the car anywhere.

There's lots of super cool cars in this months contest!! Heck, there's a few that I nominated in here LOL. Good luck to all the cars!

Metallic Blue is always a beautiful choice in both the Camaros and Pontiacs of this generation!
