• The nominee must be a board member and the current owner of the truck.
• The must be together and able to move on its own power.
• If a truck was selected as a 2017 TOTM winner then you are ineligible. If the truck was nominated but not selected as a TOTM winner then it may be nominated and compete in this month's category.

You or someone else may nominate the vehicle. The nominee must be a board member and the current owner of the truck.

I will PM the nominees to get any additional data or pictures if they have not already been provided. If the owner has a preferred picture they want used in the contest, please let me know in a PM. You can PM me for an e-mail address in case anyone has problems resizing the pictures for the board. A Poll Thread will be set up by January 25 in this board area and an announcement will be posted on the Discussion Boards to notify all that voting has begun.

Re: February 2018 ToTM
 

I want to nominate my son Chad's 1969 big block C10 for TOTM. Chad's forum name is CC69Rat. Sorry, but these are the only photos I have but as soon as the snow melts here in Tennessee I will get some better ones. This has been a 7 year father-son frame off restoration that was finished in December.

Thanks,
POP

Okay, since the theme this month is BIG, I am submitting my 72 Chev enclosed car hauler. It is powered by a fuel injected 454, 4L80E trans, goes down the road great. It has an 18 1/2 ft. box, winch,and based on a later chassis. Here are a few pics of it working and not working. We have used it for many things, but primarily to haul our 40 Ford gasser.
