It's a sweet 2nd Gen. They are my favorite Camaros next to the 69 so I cruise the pics over there from time to time. He's been a member since 1/1/2007 and has 327 Post so he gets around pretty good.

Thanks to Scooch for the nominating my baby and all the kind words from everyone. I will accept.

She is a numbers matching 72 Rally Sport. The original 350 was upgraded to a 383, suspension and steering is all new and Air Ride Technologies Shockwaves on all four corners with a four link in the rear. The rear wheelhouses were made one inch wider and original Z28 wheel centers were welded into 10 inch blanks for wider tires. Body mods are shaved door handles and the side markers are mounted flush in the fenders and quarters. Paint is PPG Viper Blue with Indigo Pearl stripes.

Waiting for winter hibernation to end!

You 1st and 2nd gen guys have to get out of your sections more ;). Next month is going to be a nightmare with the 3rd gens and lets not even talk about the 4th gens that make up like half the freaking forum.

Actually, I think I already found a sweet ride to go for the third gen nom next month... and no, I'm not cocky enough to nominate mine, it's nowhere near being ROTM worthy.

Hey ride of the month is more then just having a nice looking car. Its also about what you contribute to the forum as well.

i would say its mostly about the ride.... but not necessarily looks. it should not be a popularity contest, which it appeared to be several months back.... we should promote the cars whose owners have put alot of work into modifying, restoring, or maintaining the vehicle. its just disappointing to me when u get a few tricked cars vs some OTard and everyone votes for their buddy.

maybe this well help you guys vote on whos car should be the ROTM,ya 72rs car is nicer probily runs good and has a lot of custom stuff,but my car is driven daily its the most badass pizza delivery car around here,i have put over 3 grand of my hard earned money into it,did i mention i drive it every day. i plan on buying a truck here soon so i can stop driving it and rip out the motor for some long over do upgrades. and then in about 30yrs when i finally done with it, it will look as good as JR or even better who knows lol.
but ya if this competion is about looks then yes JR wins hands down lol.but if this is about drivng projects and if the person has contributed to this site then ya i can see why you guys nomd me. and i think i should should win this lol.

01-21-2009, 02:19 AM
Not to mention you guys are comparing a 30 grand Plus camaro to a 5grand camaro maybe if the buyer was a idiot lol.i just dont think my car should be compared or put in the same class as JR, i mean what if this was a car show and you had to enter the same class as JR with my car lol.just isnt even fair

well voting is right around the corner and we only have 2 contestants......
I would encourage both of them to go read the rules for ROTM and act accordingly.

01-21-2009, 02:44 PM
umm okay ya i will do that.

01-21-2009, 04:05 PM
lol, 73camaroSS, I don't doubt at all that JR has cared for his car a LOT, and he does contribute to the forum. Although you're car would be an awesome pizza delivery car :)

I think he thinks he is just going to get beat and doesnt want to have that happen.....

lame.

listen. ROTM is a big deal for any forum, and it is largely a community activity. many other forums dont break it into sections to give everyone a chance, and in that case we would end up with a string of endless 4th gen wins. lets face it, the 4th gen camaro is a little overrepresented in this forum. ROTM is designed to be fun, and to give us a chance to learn about some of the other member's rides.

everything I could say about this month's competition can be boiled down to: ROTM is what YOU make of it. each of you. if a certain month sucks, guess who you need to ask to improve it for next month?

since there are no other competitors now, I suppose we will give JRs72RS the win. Im sure he will be a little disappointed that there was no comp. I know I would be.
