CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

*Please read before posting*

*****February Nominations*****


This thread is designed as a nomination board to narrow down to the top ten thirdgens found on this board. This is not a picture thread to post pictures of your own vehicle, and you cannot nominate your own vehicle. To nominate a member you must provide a user name and post a photo of the vehicle (for others to possibly 2nd, 3rd, 4th the nomination).

Once a vehicle has been nominated, there is no need to post additional pics, but please post with members screen name as a vote for the car or the month.

One nomination per member. So please do not list of your top 20 favorite cars... think about this, it will be an honor, pick one. If multiple nominations are made by a single member, I will only count the first posted member when creating a tally.

*** The 10 or less cars with the most votes will be complied into a new thread the morning of Jan 15th, at which time poll format will be used to nominate the February car of the month ***

Please see last months nomination thread for ideas....
https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/auto...minations.html

Spike-Z is the only member that cannot win again untill next year... so post up your FAVORITE Car!

Lets see some of those amazing birds also... I know that they are out there!

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

This time around....I nominate: "IROCBIRDBUILDER"

Not sure if it matters...but I think he might have sold it? Haven't talked to him in awhile....

This member gave me lots and lots of info for my air ride setup as well (we are both running similar systems), he was very helpful! Beautiful thirdgen. Still has that factory look....but with some subtle modifications

Wow! That is who I was gonna nominate! Paul and I for years battled the Third gen camaro car show scene in CO and it was alway interesting to see what changes he made during the winter. His car is super clean, and helped me raise the bar in my own car to see who would get a 1st place trophy...

I second that nomination IROCBIRDBUILDER

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

you know other board do not let the last nominations be calculated. it is strictly a car of the month not the top ten. that way a lot more cars have a chance.

The previous winner of COTM can only win ONE time per year... so pretty much anyone who did not win last months voted poll has a chance to win here again. Taking 10 superb cars out of the running each month makes no sence to me. Every car has a chance, and its all up to other members to make sure that they get enough nominations to even be put into the voting poll.

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

well again. it does not take ten cars out of the running. the top 12 cars on the site will win every year. nobody below will ever have a chance. so car of the month will be the most money spent time after time. but hey it is your deal.

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

haha i vote for stage 20....again. Sexy combination of 3rd gen and 4th gen.


Also to the guy above, obviously people who sink tons of money into their car and/or tons of time into them will win. This isn't a competition for a $500 primered beater.

The quality of cars and who actually wins is all dependant of site participation... I can't, nor can any other single person decide the winner here. The cars with lots of money spent on them are usually the "dream" cars for many others "building" their cars up... So they become favorite and get nominations. I see that you edited out your vote for Neil, one of the most elaborate, exspensive builds on TGO... Glad you edited out your contradiction. You are now free to vote in the dude that did the $50 roller paint job, but he probably won't win... people as a whole want to see the best of the best here.

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

As pretty as that car was, Neil's blue '87 Ls-X Iroc is cut up into many peices and is currently in a scrap yard waiting to be melted into Dr. Pepper cans... He's starting over with a newer shell from a '91 Camaro. It will be way nicer when he's done, but that car in the pic doesn't exist anymore.

I'll vote for TylerM (Prowler orange Twin Turbo LS-X) this month.

I was gonna post a pic of the cut up shell of Neils car, but thought it wasn't really gonna help this along any better... confusion on how a pile of chopped up metal is someones favorite haha! I can't wait to see how the next one comes together.

True, it may not exist anymore...but it WAS created and still can be a car of the month IMO as long as he has more pictures of it. I only seen a few of it and never one with a hood on it. Dont know what happened but apparently it was cut up like you said. Shame but the new one will be just as awesome I'm sure.

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

Neil had the shell cut into pieces due to previously undiscovered rust and frame rails flexing upon steering. Which, I find odd because the last time I drove the car it felt fine... He will be transferring the doors, rockers, lights, and all custom fabbed pieces, interior etc... into the new shell along with C6 suspension (I think was the last thing he told me). The new one will be even more killer! But, expect it to take FOREVER to get finished! Ha!

Neil if you read this, I'll call ya later.. I may take mine to Good Guys this March up by you and you can ride in mine.

Last pics of his car:

Doesnt have one. He mixed a type of silver metallic with a black in a 50/50 mix. Doesnt recall the codes for the 2 colors used either but it was a sherwin williams paint I believe from what I seen him post.

TylerM has a great car as well (and color ), but I bought his old turbo from him and it turned out to be blown, so that would keep me from voting on it.

EDIT: My appologies to TylerM, since I just found out he is actually the new owner of that car....it was the previous owner who sold me the bad turbo.

tottally agree with you...that was one of the best third gens ever made and definately pushed the bar high for a custom third gen camaro. when i first saw it on youtube i couldn't believe all the custom touchs only guys like us would truely notice....but being how nice the car was ....he cut it up for a reason and it must have been so bad that it couldn't be fixed without a donor car...and he didn't want to do that.....i def give him credit for cutting it up...took some strength...i don't know if i could have done it...i would have just tried to fix it. i saw the pictures of it cut up...crazy..

also evilemokid94 thanks for the vote for me...i started the project when my daughter was 1 shes 9 now...little by little everyyear...its getting there, so thanks

Thanks sickness and brandon, nice to see her legacy lives on. Last i heard car was in oklahoma.

I vote for sickness91Z28 this month as i'm glad to have helped out and seen how the car has morphed into the beautiful creature it is today!!

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

1 Mean Z is beautiful.. As is Sickness!! But I am gonna give my vote this month to Ramair21. seeing it in person and seeing the other mods he has done to his car definitely sets him apart from a lot of other TGs.

Because I'm sick of seeing so many highly modded cars getting mentioned, and I wanna see more stock looking cars getting nominated, chalk up another one for fandreou's 91 z28

Re: CAR OF THE MONTH - FEB Nominations

guys who are re-nominating ramair21 - realize this is not the vote for COTM but simply a nomination thread. If you all are just reinforcing his nomination thats great! I just want to make sure you realize the actual vote/poll is not up yet, make sure you vote in the poll when it's up!
