there are some photos, i was having trouble posting pictures, if you want any more just let me know. for the images that has a space between the word "pictures" and the number just copy and paste it to the address bar.

I am going to nominate 5speed502. For not only taking on a huge project but also taking his time to document the build and share it with other members. He continues to be a productive member of the forum and i look forward to every update he adds to his 69 street machine:D

hopefully next year we can do a 5th gen with the new camaros lol

When we get a few 5th gen members you mean ;)

i should mention that in the past we HAVE had people removed from the competition for not being familiar with the rules and have a more "legit" nominee take their seat. go look at the rules and follow to the best of your ability everyone. it would suck to think u are nommed and then miss out because you didnt do something right. they arent hard rules to follow

um how do you make a photo album?

yea same question, i have pics on the internet, on imagecave but i am not to sure how to make an album

albums arent working right now since the hack. we just gotta wait until we get the update. for now you can just use the image button. last button in the toolbar

http://usera.imagecave.com/insidethreat07/1968CamaroSS/


will that work?

im nominating my buddy Scooch

Photobucket works great. Just go there press the upload image button. Then once it loads click on direct link and it will automatically copy that image. Then all you have to do is select the photo button above on the tool bar and past. That easy ;)

I second the motionon Scooch

I second 5speed502.

I would also like to nominate Gorn :$ Beautiful car!:D

my finals get done friday, which means i will have time to count the noms. make sure to let these guys know u nommed them......

I think insidethreat07 has a sweet car
he should be nominated

isaac11 our you nominating him or are you saying you want him to be nominated;)

Has cpl gotten a nom? If no, then I nominate cplthomas.

i talked to spector and bad news as that i have to own the camaro even though its my dad's, so i guess im out of the running for ROTM. Or maybe he could make an exception... :) lol. rules are rules i guess

here is my 69
383 stroker /tremec 5 speed /3.73

lets get some more noms guys. good way to start out the new year
remember whoever wins this goes in in december for ROTY

I would like to nominate Camaro 69, Those two fours sticking up sure have made me re-think the stock look I have been going for.

CBR, Guys,

Thanks for the Nomination, but maybe someone who has already gone thru this work, or has a completed ride should be nominated in my place....

I do appreciate it though.

On another note, if nobody has second'd cplthomas, I would like to do that at this point.

Thanks.
John

You have helped a lot of people on the 1st gen section of the forum. Also you have taken great time to document and share you build and help pass on your experience and knowledge to many new and senior members of the forum. Thats why you got my nom plus as you know no project car is ever truly finished ;)

the funny part about 1st gen ROTM is we usually have more incomplete cars than finished ones lol. 502, ur good and I think u deserve a slot. all u gotta do is say the word

oh my bad didn't see that

Any real gear head knows that no project is really truly over. There is always something new and something to fix, improve, or upgrade.;)

OK thanks a lot guys, I accept the nom!
And Spec, I know "the rules" have been loosened up some, since photo albums don't work right.
Do you still need a picture(s) link of some sort from me? If so, I'll set up some from my Photobucket account.

And, I see that Gorn has been nominated but not seconded. I'll give him a second. As far as stock appearing cars go, his looks like a fine one (even if he doesn't have a tunnel ram)!;)

I will accept also you guys need someone to come in last place. BTW is it ok is my whole family registers. I want atleast 6 votes!

I will accept, but I need to get more pics up... the 69 is in a gazillion pieces and its not going anywere any time soon, we just got 2 feet of fresh snow on the ground, the Camaro isnt even going to see daylight in this.... let me see if I have any recent pics.. thanks for the noms guys.

Thank you then, I will accept Nomination. I have a photobucket website with a few hundred photos already downloaded. I guess I will need to figure out where to go from here.

Post up a link to your photobucket.

67 RS/SS 350, 4sp deluxe interior, power top,full gages.

Its a true RS/SS. the motor is out of a 69. It was replaced back in the 80's tranny and rear are original. Only recent upgrades are the Holly avenger and petronics ignition. Power steering and a multi leaf spring systemwere added before I got it. It is a early production so it does not have the traction bar upgrade. Its not a show car, I drive it, I do some cruises. I have had it for 11 years. No better stress relief then totake it out and run it thru the gears a few times.

Before anyone comments the brick behind the wheelis therebecause my daughter likes to pretend to drive. Parking brake works fine :)She took my 86 SS and myself for a ride, we made it about 200 yards before I got thru the window and got my hand on the brake.

Give this a try.

Thanks,

I will take some time and count up the nominations and have admin review them some time tomorrow. If you still want to nominate some one or second the motion this is your last chance. This ride of the month is a little shaky since its the first one in some time. Work with us as we get throw some of the bumps ;).

5speed502
Scooch
camaro69
Gorn
cplthomas

that is the list that cbr (many thanks) put together for me. If you guys could each PM me a picture of the car and any relevant info you can squeeze into 1 or 2 sentences (brief description) that would be great. Once I get the pics and info we can get this ball rolling.

remember, 1 picture for the OP of the voting thread. so pick your bestest one. once the OP is up for that thread u can post whatever pics, vids, clips, info, or whatever you want, as per SOP

Any time man;).

Make sure every one gets those pictures in. I know with the holidays traffic might be down a bit but lets get them in so we can get it up and start off the new year with a bang.

OK Specter, I'm having problems sending you a PM. I keep getting a "Max 4900 char." error? Trust me, it wasn't anything that wordy! I can't even PM you telling you that I can't PM you!!![:@] So whatIdonow?

LOL, i just realized my PM box was full!!!!
gorn was the only one allowed to send.

try now, i took out several pages of PMs so should be good to go. sorry about that

Somethings still goofy. I still get the same error, and I'm using Firefox browser. So I thought I'd try Internet Explorer, and I get "The member(s) you want to PM to cannot accept PM due to their permission settings"???
What did you do, lock me out?

gorn did it...... lemme check some things [&:]

Hey, I did notdo anything that you can prove. We should go ahead and start with the list you have so far. You can add all the "late guys" later on.
:)

Couldnt remember if I had actually accepted the nom or not so this is my acceptance speech. Looks like I got it!!! woohoo!! Thanks everybody!! Thanks for the votes, thanks for the nomination Alih!!

new to the forum. just bought a immaculate 02 z28. still has 26,000 original miles. 365rwhp. "A BEAST"
