This thread is for September 2017 COTM **Nominations** PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE COTM NOMINATION RULES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO NOMINATE A MEMBER’S RIDE FOR COTM.
REMEMBER, WE MUST PROTECT THE INTEGRITY OF THE CONTEST SO THAT THE MOST DESERVING MEMBER WINS.
This thread is a Nomination Thread to nominate cars that will compete for this month's Car of the Month honor. The 12 (or less) most popularly nominated cars will be compiled into a *Voting Thread* in a couple of weeks. If you do not nominate a member's car for COTM, you can still second or third (fourth, fifth, so on) someone else's nomination. Cars must have at least a second nomination in order to make the Voting Thread.
Do not nominate your own car. Your car must be nominated by another TGO Member.
Do not ask your wife, husband, friends, extended family, etc. to register as TGO Members for the purpose of nominating your car.
Do not nominate more than one car.
Do not use multiple member accounts to nominate your own car or to nominate multiple cars.
This is not a picture thread. Post only one (1) good photo of the car you wish to nominate. Do not use unrealistic, overly-processed images.
You must post a picture with your nomination. This must be a full-sized picture (or at the very least, a pic or thumb that enlarges into a full-sized picture when you click on it).
Correctly identify the user name of the member who you nominate.
Correctly identify the year and model/trim of the car you nominate.
Do not nominate cars that are not in a high quality, finished state.
And if you are nominated, please DO go out and take an abundance of good quality photos of your ride (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 Criteria*****
OPEN SEASON
Any very high quality, finished, stock or modified 1982-92 Camaro or Firebird.
I would like to nominate KFSullivan and his 1988 Trans am WS6. He's an active member with the COTM threads and has one very clean looking Trans Am. It was hard to pic just one of his pictures to show for his car. As a bonus, i dont think he's ever been nominated.
I would like to nominate Mgg4591 and his 86 sport coupe LS swap. Not sure if this car has been nominated but it is COTM worthy. Very nice job on the transformation from a base SC.

Thanks guys for the nomination. Much appreciated. There have been many awesome 3rd gens in the running each and every month this year. I'm sure this month will be no different.
amfornal,
Your participation is greatly appreciated, and it looks to be a fine nominee that you've chosen. However, please refer to the COTM nomination rules and edit your nomination as appropriate.

I was about to close this thread and post up the **Voting Thread**. Before doing so, I was going to second Bandit 1977. However, before doing that, I wanted to get a closer look - make sure the interior was as nice as the exterior.
I was unable to find any post or track down Bandit 1977's profile, here or using a Google search. It's actually an unoriginal (don't mean that in a bad way, but in a literal way) and therefore confusing username to have to run any kind of search on (you end up getting a lot of '77 Trans Am stuff).
Long story short - I can't find anything on his car, and even if I seconded his nomination, I would have no way to inform him that he's been nominated. So, I'm gonna put off the **Voting Thread** for one more day, and if somebody can provide a link to anything he's posted or get him to drop a line in this thread, I can hopefully get a better look at his car and at least have a way to inform him that he's been nominated. If by about this time tomorrow I still can't track down Bandit 1977 at all, then we'll roll with just the two members that have been nominated & seconded.
And I'm not going to go searching for inthesunset's info either.
Some good action in the COTM Bait Thread lately...
I will no longer be able to second Bandit 1977's nomination because I'm nominating punkmaster98 for his 1987 GTA.
I am sorry, I thought I included the information.... I would like to nominate inthesunset"s 1985 IROC B4Z car, originally LG4/T5/3.23 posi from factory. Swapped in a built 350/T56/4.10 posi in 2014.
