Rules

1. For the purpose of this contest, a "914" is defined as a car that started life and still retains the general shape and characteristics of a 914. (Lightened cars? Fine. Tube framed, firebreathing monsters? Sure, if they generally look like a 914. V8/Suby conversion cars? Cool. A 914-based trike? Okay! A sandrail with no 914 components but 914 drivetrain and suspension? No. Get the idea? smile.gif )
2. Also, to be eligible for nomination, the car must be owned by a 914World Member and picture posted on a 914World thread or blog.
3. The Admin team will open a separate thread for nominations on/about the first of the month.
4. Any active (defined as at least 5 posts in the last month) 914World member may nominate any active member. The nomination must include the member's Board name and a picture of the car or a link to their 914World blog.
5. No self-nominations, please. smile.gif
6. All COTM nominations must be "seconded" by another member.
7. Once five COTM nominations that are seconded, nominations will be closed.
8. We will open a thread for to vote for COTM. Voting will last 10 calendar days!
9. The car with the greatest number of votes wins COTM!
10. Once a car wins Car of the Month, that car is eligible to win again in the next calendar year.
11. A member fortunate enough to have two or more stunning cars may win multiple times a year - it's really the car that wins COTM, not the member.

Nomination Procedures

1. Someone nominates (hypothetically) Betty's 1974 1.8 as COTM.
2. Someone else seconds that nomination for Betty's car (at this point, the nomination is official).
3. Once five cars have been nominated and seconded to be COTM, the nominations are complete.
4. Next, voting!

I want to nominate Pete Stouts car. horizontally-opposed aktion035.gif

Here's why. This car has the look of a period 914. I'm not saying concours but 914 cool. The color, the wheels, the stance. It's very hard these days to find tires with any kind of width that actually has a sidewall and tread design that doesn't look rice. Pete spent a considerable amount of time and money recently to turn back time. As I understand he has a few more items planned to assist in the back to the past look.

I get that and like it.

I nominate "Drivability" as an awesome example of workmanship and 914 "eye candy." I dream about owning a car like this someday. smilie_pokal.gif
