February 2019 COTM **Nomination Thread**

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.[This includes capitalization and spacing].
  • 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.

Re: February 2019 COTM **Nomination Thread**

While z28Cop's Iroc might be a top 10 for me, on all of tgo, I have no doubt it'll get a second. I'll use my influence for new blood. I actually thought I nom'd this guy last year but couldn't actually find it. I'd like to nominate Heitzman and his 83 Z28 H.O. He doesn't seem to be on a whole lot, but his thread was less than a year ago. Maybe we can reach out and cultivate some participation.

He's got a fair amount of pictures and info on this thread. ....if he doesn't respond, I'll submit his pics and info in the voting thread. -of course we'd like to see him participate if he's willing obviously.

I do think he did sell it. I was subscribed to his thread where he was selling it. It took him a long time to sell. I was really impressed with this car, what a beaut!

Re: February 2019 COTM **Nomination Thread**

Our contest is missing a Formula, so for the sake of diversity, and this seems to be an awesome original car I nominate:
live4formula and his 1989 Bright Red Formula.


He only has 2 pics and this is one of them so hopefully he gets the nod and we can see more of his award winning bird!
