The Voting is Open and as usual we have a Great Group of Cars ( & owners) to choose from.

The Voting will conclude on Christmas Eve, so that the Winner (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif) gets an extra Present under the Tree (IMG:style_emoticons/default/santa_smiley.gif) . It also gives me enough to time to forward the info onto the Admins to update the Homepage

The Winner gets their Teener featured on the Home Page for January & February and gets Notation in their Signature.

It is the job of the Nominee ( or the person that nominated the car ( or friends)) to gives us more info and pictures of the cars - It's your time to help get your car some votes. Let us know what year your car is, what mods have been done ( or is it bone stock), what exact color it is. When the Winner is on the HomePage we normally put 3 or 4 pictures in, so show us your car

LOL! I was just doing my nightly patrol of 914World before bed and I saw your first post. It said to add pictures and details so I just went wild... Then, I discovered that you were still in the process of assembling your COTM balloting thread. Sorry TC. Besides, what the hell are you doing up at that time of the night? It was late HERE! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif)

By the way, I hardly know Scott Detro (ScooterD). I put an ad for a set of brand new SSI stainless steel heat exchangers in the Classified section for like $900 a few years back thinking no one will buy them because the market hasn't reached the value where I can sell them. BOOM! Scott calls and wants me to check the flanges with a magnet. Yup, they are all stainless. A couple hours later, he shows up with cash in fist and within a span of a minute or two he is gone. A year later I saw the car at San Rafael and realized what an immaculate creation he had built...

All the 914's are terrific ! Here's a shout-out for Mark Blantons V8 conversion. The build was documented here. One of my favorite conversions... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'll start with some "ancient" history.
I bought my 1970 1.7L in 1984 for $2000 with just over 100K miles. I named it the Tangerine Dream after the German electronic rock group.
After owning the car for only a few weeks I found lots of questionable metal repairs and started down the path to a career in welding/fabrication.

This is what it looked like back in December '84, the first winter I owned the car:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.tangerineracing.com-209-1292349065.1.jpg)

After driving it for 2 years I parked it to work on the major rust issues (longs, hell hole, etc.)
I went into business in 1988 so the car sat under cover for a few more years.

The next time it saw pavement was October 1994, when I debuted it in SCCA ITB trim. I promptly wrecked it during qualifying. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
By the following spring it was ready for action again, and I competed in the full NARRC series in '95 and '96.

Here's what it looked like in '96 at Pocono, heading into The Devils Elbow:
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.tangerineracing.com-209-1292349065.2.jpg)

and at Watkins Glen coming out of The Boot:

Some exciting moments at Lime Rock:

I spent most of '97 upgrading the car to Production specs and went to an SCCA Regional at The Glen for the shakedown. Here I am on the pregrid for the first practice session running in E Production.

In 1998 I won the NARRC regional championship in E Prod.

(more to come)
