Truck Of The Month (TOTM) Contest

OK, the contest you have all been waiting for, our annual honoring to those that set the basis for our truck world. The theme of this month’s TOTM is

What is That?

Yep, you guessed it. The theme for this month will be our less than perfect specimens; our beaters, our beasts, our rust-buckets, our TRUCKS. Now here are the rules or criteria for the vehicles

To be an eligible BEATER

Open to all years and models of Trucks, Blazers, Suburbans, Tahoes, Yukons, and Jimmys.
The nominee must be a board member and the current owner of the truck.
It must be road worthy and currently legal (until the cops catch) you to be on the road.
It must have an unmatching paint scheme (no all primers)
It must have at least two other viewable imperfections. This includes things like missing panels, dents, holes (large and small), dominate rust formations (not patina) or whatever might make someone afraid to go near it for fear of catching some sort of disease .
If a truck was selected as a 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. Just add the nomination to this thread. We will need a picture or two (preferably 2) of the nominee vehicle, the owner’s board name, and any of the basics specs (year, engine/drive train specs) you or your nominee wish to provide.

I normally use 1 picture showing a good front view and 1 with a rear view of the vehicles on the voting threads. If the owner has a preferred picture they want used in the contest, please let me know in a PM.

Nominees will through March 24. If additional information is needed, I will PM the first 15 nominees to get any additional data or pictures if they have not already been provided. 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 March 25 and will run until the morning of April 1. The official announcement of the winner will be on the afternoon of April 1. The announcement of this month’s TOTM winner will be posted through the General Discussion Board area.
