I would like to nominate 92Nautiquesnob.

 

I Nominate Roy99664.

 

I would like to 2nd 92Nautiquesnob

 

I'd like to nominate 07SSport. Sedans (especially Impala's) forever! Guess I'd better withdraw this nomination.

 

Just a suggestion for Mike.
I don't see any reason not to go with a ROTM theme when one presents it's self.
I will send them pm's if you agree, but I would like to nominate Gwampa, HotSauce with the SS and 07SSport.
That would give us 3 Impalas and room for 2 more.

 

We could include Roy99664's Monte SS as a fourth... Just my .02

 

I think this is good, we have talked about doing themed ROTMs, cool, this one seems to be creating itself. Keep the nominations rollin in.

 

I sent pm's to the 3 Imps

 

Cool, thanks!
