I voted for Andy's beautiful six. Having followed his thread on it's restoration. I couldn't not vote for it. All of the work he has put into bringing that car back to life. Made it a pretty easy vote for me.

Ricks would be next in line for me. Always loved the Alien & the fact that Rick drives out for event's in it. From frickin Minnisota or some backwoods State (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) . Not only did he build the car himself it is truly unique. There is not another 928 powered 914 out there I know of. If this car of the month had been a year down the road. I would have probably given Rick the nod.

I haven't posted anything on my car. It is beautiful & I love it's color. It's build was done incredibly by my friend Dean. Since all I can really take credit for is prying it from his grasp (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif) . I'm just enjoying enjoying driving my 914. Something I haven't gotten to do very reliably since I have been into 914's. It's been one project after the other. Mixed with small portions of having a running driving car. So I am loving hopping into my car & driving it wherever the hell I want. Between my 3500 mile trek to Route 66 & another 1300 or so for WCR in Tahoe. I have managed to put about 7000 miles on my car since I got last August. Not bad considering I didn't drive it for a good 3 month block of winter.

Rob's car is a beauty & I know him well. Always enjoy catching up at event's with him. Silver is not my favorite 914 color. I don't mind it & Rob's car is absolutely sweet. I've seen it's transformation to flares & a 6 recently. Huge prop's to Rob & his killer car. For this COTM I just couldn't do it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Sorry Rob

Alex- bud your car is sweet. I love green & it was great to learn more about your build. I guess that is one thread I missed. Doing all the work yourself too is awesome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) . I hope to see you at an event somewhere in the future. Sweet ride & I am sure a future COTM winner (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) it should be 100 to 0, 0, 0 for Andy's car. I'm surprised that Rick's alien wasn't a COTM long ago as the engineering and reliability are legendary. I believe your car was already a COTM when Dean owned it Jamie. I don't remember Dean's screen name to check it though.
As for mine, I'm flattered but while it may be close enough to get noticed, it isn't quite done. McMark and I discussed a photo shoot with garbage cans and dumpsters yesterday though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) Bovey!
