TOTM - July 2010
 
The theme for our Truck of the Month (TOTM) contest this month is:

I Like it Long!!

To be an eligible for this month’s contest
  • Open to all years and models of trucks
  • The truck has to be a long wheelbase model to include longhorns with a fleetside or stepside bed.
  • It must be together and able to move on its own power.
  • It must be licensed for street use.
  • If a truck was selected as a 2008/2009 TOTM winner then you are ineligible. If you were nominated but were not selected as a TOTM winner then you may be nominated and compete in this month's category.

To Nominate:

You or someone else may nominate the vehicle. The nominee must be a board member and the current owner of the truck. Once you decide on who you wish to nominate, just add your nomination to this thread. We will need two pictures minimum (at least one full view of the vehicle) with/for the nomination as well as the owner’s board name, the year of the truck, and any other specs of the truck (interior details, engine/drive train specs) that you may want to provide.

Nominees will run through June 23. The first 15 nominees that meet the criteria will participate in the contest. I will PM the nominees to get any additional data or pictures if they have not already been provided. I normally use 1 picture showing a good front-side view and 1 with a rear view of the vehicle in the voting threads. 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 in this board area and an announcement will be posted on the Discussion Boards to notify all of the voting. The Poll will start to run on June 24 and will run until the morning of July 1st. The official announcement of the winner will be on the afternoon of July 1st. The announcement of this month’s TOTM winner will be posted through the General Discussion Board area.

So jump on in and give us some long ones!

Going to play in this one! :) 69 GMC...most of you are familiar. :) 350/700r4...the motor is bored 30 with a mild cam and gear drive. I can't seem to find a pic of the motor with the new intake. I'll find one or take one and add it. Would also like to get rid of the trash can in the first pic too. :)

I would like to nominate oldiron.

He just finished this truck so I don't think that's it's ever won before, but I could be wrong.

It is a '71 long bed 4x4 w/ a 350, 4x4, 3.73 gears, 32" (I think) 15x8 wheels, is wearing a new coat of paint and a matching canopy. The interior is stock looking with a tach dash, and the radio hidden in the glove box.

I'm sure he has more pictures I don't have any more.
