    Rules require 3 nominations to move forward with the Voting Poll. If we have 4 or 5 nominations we move forward with that and obviously 5 nominations is the maximum. Three nominations are all we received this month, but that is enough to make the ROTM official and therefore here we are.

    Good Luck to all the nominees!

    So many great cars to choose from and great to find out more about the cars. I really enjoyed last months article on the Pace Car and look forward to learning about other members rides. We all have stories to tell. Let's make sure we support Trey and keep this going with enthusiasm.

    I know we say this every month, but man this is a tough one. I like the crimson cat because the resto was amazing, but there is something to be said for the other two cars as well. I love that color scheme on the Z7, and that GT350 is awesome! Decisions decisions?
    Cheers!

    I am too. It's so rare to see a car like this one where it was loved and cared for over such a long period of time. The Capri restoration is fantastic and the GT-350 is also great...but you can only make one choice.

    I don't mind having 3 nominees.

    It's still a fine field, I had trouble deciding!

    I'm not a big Fairmont fan so this goes with a caveat, but that is the first Fairmont I've seen with a factory sunroof. It's just cool the things you notice even after being a Fox head since the beginning.

    I don't mind a field of three when the three are so wildly different and are all clearly fantastic cars. Pretty sure this grouping makes it hard enough with only three from which to choose.
