February Car of the Month Submissions

[NJSPEEDER]

Anyone can post one picture of their Camaro or Firebird in this thread.

Please include your name and a short paragraph describing the mods done to the car and/or a short story about the car as well.

If this is not posted in this thread by the time voting begins, your car will not be included in the vote.

At the last week of the month we will post a poll that will last for one week (7 days) and the winner will get to spend the following month showcased on the home page of the site. Past winners will not be eligible to win again for 12 months.

All submitted pictures should be a minimum size of 640 x 480, as this is the size of the image that will be posted on the home page. If you aren't sure of the size, post it up the largest image you have (within reason).

If you have submitted a car in the past, but were not selected as a winner, feel free to submit another pic. You can continue to enter each month until you win.

GET THOSE SUBMISSIONS IN!!!

Name: Bryan Ames
Car: 1998 Trans Am

I bought the car almost a year ago up in north jersey. When I bought the car it had kooks longtube header, highflow cats, and a magnaflow catback. It also had a 3600 Vig, tune and a moser rear with 373s. Since I have owned the car i added the a Stock ws6 ram air hood and a set of MT Drag Radials. I also recently put C6 Z06 wheels to cruise around on. The best I have done at atco is a 12.409 @ 109.3. Hopefully come this season a can run 12.0 or maybe even 11s.

I picked this clean t-top 98 z28 6 speed up this past august after i sold my 93 ss clone that i was having alot of trouble with. The car was basically stock when i got it, since that point ive put some clean ss wheels on along with an SLP LM1 cat back, fast toys ram air kit, and Umi suspension. I plan on doing some more mods come spring time along with installing the Ultra Z hood i have for her.

I bought this car about 5 years ago from the dealership I work for. It has a pretty much stock 305 with Flowtech headers and a 3" Flowmaster exhaust. I replaced all the bushings in the front with polyurethane bushings from Energy Suspension and also added a Spohn Wonder bar and Hotchkis Sub-frame connectors. It has a B/W posi from an '89 Camaro with disc brakes in the rear along with Spohn LCA's, Panhard bar and torque arm.

[NJ346]

Vinnie Spatola I'm another 17 year old with an F body being my first car. It's a 99 LS1 Camaro Z28. I have thrown practically all my money into this car in the year I've owned it. List of mods include: Hooker Headers, Magnaflow Catback, QTP electric cutout, SS hood and spoiler, LS6 intake manifold, SLP Lid, Hurst Billet Plus Shifter, UMI Subframe connectors, LCA's, LCA relocation brackets, UMI panhard bar, UMI tq. arm. The car is putting down 335rwhp with 180K miles on it. Even with the miles, I constantly get compliments with how my paint shines compared to their 50K mile cars. I made my first 12 second pass with the car back in Decemeber when I made the trip to Atco with about 5 other club members.

This was my first car and I've had it for 3 years now. Started off as my brothers car who basically drove home one day put it in park and never drove it again. Car was falling apart and he had it with the upkeep. I had the engine rebuilt and it started from there. Sine the rebuild the car has been my daily driver. Almost 40k miles in the 3 years Ive had it. The car has gone through many upgrades and as it sits now it has: Pacesetter Headers, high flow cat to an E-cutout, polished Z28 tips, Wings West ground effects kit, SS Spoiler/Hood, Painted Dark Shadow Grey w/ Black scoop and rear panel, 5% tint all around, polished nose emblem and rear inserts, VHT Night shade on the taillights, J&M STB, UMI 3pt sub frame connectors, Spohn RCA's, Spohn PHR, KYB AGX Shocks,Comps Cam 260h w/ 1.6 rockers, little bit of engine dress up (polished radiator, battery, PCM, Brake reservoir covers and sanded/polished upper intake), shorty antenna, Custom grill setup, Gray seats out of a 99z, Posi Rear out of a 96Z with 3.42's, LS1 Aluminum Drive Shaft, Poly trans mount, and finally all sitting on a set of 17" TT2's with 275's up front and 315's out back. This car wont see any more upgrades unless the trans goes then it'll get a better stall and shift kit as all my money is sunk in another project.

[NJSPEEDER]

That is a great shot Colin. Good luck.....even if you won't vote for your own car. lol

[usp55]

haha, come on vote for your own car?? shouldn't that be one of those things that's not aloud, of course u like your car the best or else u wouldn't be here and you wouldn't have done what u did to it, right?? owners vote should be cast towards another entry they feel next best to show respect to there fellow members effort/pride in their ride. If your car wins more than likely it wasn't by just one vote anyway. just my .02

Plus I got a little chubby for 2nd gen Firebirds at the moment. But thanks, I like that pic too. Just wish i had some with out thew front plate but id have to buy an new grill and i just never got around to it.

you think people running for president vote for their opponents?

[Fozzi58]

I was gonna submit my own car but after seeing Black Bird 99's wife's ride - I have to put my vote in for that! Gotta love the early 2nd gens.

Tom and the crew that run the All Firebird Lawn show put on a great time. Was up there a few years ago (05?). Was awesome to see. Especially when you have like 20 Bandit TA's get lined up for a pic!

Anyways - this is me - http://www.cardomain.com/ride/716576

[usp55]

you think people running for president vote for their opponents?

no, but do u think they respect their opponents views? prob not or they be running mates not opponents. But even if they do its not in the same way that i respect the way that way u actually use your SS trailblazer and don't just pick up the groceries in it. Why would i vote for my own car, i already know i love it, **** its what gets me through the work day, the drive home. I don't even mind sitting in traffic trying to get out of Philly.

I knew someone was gona bring up presidents voting for themselves, lol

[band77one]

im not voting for my car.....t/a burnouts FTW!!!

boooooooo

Submit your car. It's not like you can only put in for it once, you can submit as many times as you want. You can only win once a year though :)

[Knipps]

Is it once a year or once every 12 mos?

[sweetbmxrider]

wasn't last month won by a single vote? :lol:

not to be a complete dick, though i am, don't you have to be a member here to submit a pic for COTM? that is what happened with the black 2nd gen in dec right?

[Mike]

yes

[NJSPEEDER]

Once every 12 months, 1 year rolling, however you wanna say it. To win February you can't have won more recently than January of last year.

[Knipps]

Just clarifying. Thanks

1994 Z28 A4

I got the car for Christmas 2005. It came with Flowmaster catback to stock rectangle tips and Moroso intake. I have since added SLP 1.5'' lowering/sport spring and shock package, SLP 3.73 gear, B&M Transpak shift kit, and B&M Transcooler. I orignally had her on 18x9.5 C6 Z06 wheels but have swapped to 17in ZR1's, 9.5 up front and 11 in the rear. She is starting to feel her almost 200,000 miles and I can't wait to have the money and time to get her back in shape.

I bought this car in November of 05 after my 88 Camaro was totaled. This is just your basic LT1, with Pro 5.0 short shifter, cai, catback exhaust, subframe connectors. I found this car for sale outside a junkyard right after I bought my Camaro, and it was still sitting there a year later when My Camaro was totaled. So far it has been a great daily driver, and beginning soon it will be getting some well deserved upgrades.

[NJSPEEDER]

Hi Guys, Tom Smith from Saratoga Springs again, Home of the All Firebird Lawn Show.
OK, the Red 70 Formula is out of the game.

http://i734.photobucket.com/albums/ww349/Black_Bird_99/DSC_0652.jpg

Now let's try this one. It is a low numbers (1 of 555) production 1991 WS6 Trans Am Convertible that I bought about 3 years ago up in northern VT near the Canadian border and was owned by a little old couple retiring to FL. Since I already had 2 Birds (a black 99 WS6 Formula (1 of 175) and the formerly posted red 70, my wife kind of had a negative feel on me owning a 3rd Bird. In her words, "What do you need that for?" So I told her that she was right, I really didn't need it, but I bought it anyway. I left a deposit and drove back to northern VT the next week and took it home.

The car just turned barely over 50k miles this past summer before I put it up for the winter. It is a nice summer driver and cruiser and has won a few trophies in local shows, although I never bought it to be a show car or a strip car, just a nice summer feel good driver. It has 5.0L/305 c.i. V8 with 700R4. It is all original except for tires, serpentine belt, and battery.

Although it is my car, is is registered in my name and my wife's name, so if I should roll a seven in my travels, she will not have to go to probate court to regain posession of my car. Did I say it is my car??? ;)

You can see it this summer at the 7th Annual All Firebird Lawn Show in Saratoga Springs where I might actually put it in the Car Corral just to get my wife off of my back.

Hope to see you there,
Tom

[sweetbmxrider]

that is definitely a nice summer cruiser!
