June 2010 CoTM nominations

[RustyRed]

I started thinking...aren't all the cars on the board an ongoing project just some of them happen to be a little further along in the never ending process?

That said, I still like Dne's car

 

[68EFIvert]

Can I nominate my car since there are a couple things I still want to do.

 

[Fast68back]

OK, the poll has been posted. I did not add a few of the cars that were nominated, either seriously or s a joke.

* Dne' while a great project, it has already won a CoTM award as a project, it can win again when she finishes it!

* Bruno, no way in #$&% buddy, we saw the video, your FB is moving under its own power...

* Big J and the Rat Rod, as impressive a job as he is doing, we are still a mustang site....

* Tarafied's POS trailer, Craig said there had been no progress

* 68EFIVert, No Effin way Darreld.....go put some miles on that thing.

*Horseplay, you kinda nominated yourself, but never put up any pics. If you want in, let me know and I'll add your project.

*Guruatbol, Captain America is also pretty much done if not done and (should hopefully) be out being enjoyed.

Well then maybe one of the Moderators should make some posts in the general and gum flappers campaigning for votes. But not a sticky :beat too many up there now and I tend to ignore them.
