Thanks again for the nomination 74, although, I think Rands sec gen would take the prize. I like dacats 67 and tommynos for first gen. Rands second gen. Take a look at 3RDGENZ28TX's ride. bluovlh8er's pretty clean 4th gen will round out my nominations.

I would have voted yours this month, but had my choice made already for this month........Yeah those big block 2nd gen's are hadr to beat....pos't up some more pic's I'm sure you'll make it in this month, if not next..by the way, nice rims.
Hey, every time I get in and feel the exhaust pounding on the floorboards, I already know the ride I got. Heh
I thought my 69 SS 350 wasn't too bad a running car, but got whooped a few times on the street. Then I got this high horse rat motor! WHoo Hoo! I haven't been in anyones rearview mirror since.
The closest one I had was a 1970 440 SixPack Challenger. My buddy owned that one and it was fast!
Of course all this street racing was years ago.....now I just putt along and listen to header music....too valuable to take a chance of blowing up the original engine now. Plus the fact that theres nothing out there to race anymore. ;)
Yeah my mags are ET's. Bought all four of them in 1972 for $100 brand new. (Gas was around 35 cents a gallon.)

Yeah, if it were'nt for the straight side dumps and shinny paint, this baby would practicaly disapear at night. She's gettin closer to the origional look I want. It has the rope wrapped steering wheel now, not that tiny, ricer lookin, Grant P.O.S. that's in the photo album. I should update that pic, can't have anyone gettin the wrong idea you know. 98ss, Thanks for the vote of confidence man. It's great how that style rim fits these two generations perfectly, don't you think?

Tommynos 1st gen. The stripes alone do it for me, nice choice of color matching
Andross 2nd gen because Transformers comes out this month, it's only fitting then to have the bumblebee look-alike
Badinfluence 4th gen cause the guy takes it all in stride and isn't worried about how he finishes. The car also looks very clean and well keeped.

Just a quick note. When taking pic sof your ride, if they are digital (which most are) take a LOT of pics and sort through for the BEST shots. And maybe photoshop them, to get them cropped and sized right.
I think that there have been some good cars, with just bad pics. And the pics are all we can go by.
Heh heres a pic I PhotoShopped from a previous vote. Cropped the picture and then 'enhanced' it a bit for effect.
