Arrow October 2012 TOTM

Keeping with the upcoming holiday holiday, the theme for October’s Truck of the Month contest is.

Back in Black!

So to see what it takes to be a nominee this month, the truck will need to meet these criteria:
  • Open to all years and models of Trucks, Blazers, Suburbans, Tahoes, Yukons, and Jimmys.
  • The vehicle nominated needs to belong to a board member during the time of the contest.
  • The truck’s must be painted in BLACK. No two-tones, no primer jobs, just a solid black paint job.
  • It must be together and able to move on its own power.
  • The truck has to be licensed for street use.
  • If a truck was selected as a 2011 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 September 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 by September 24 in this board area and an announcement will be posted on the Discussion Boards to notify all that voting has begun. The Poll will run thru the morning of October 1 and the official announcement of the winner will be on the afternoon of October 1. The announcement of the TOTM winner will be posted through the General Discussion Board area.

Re: October 2012 TOTM

I'll put up my 1976 Silverado short fleet with factory sport mirrors and bumper. She is still wearing all of her original body panels finished in black lacquer and factory red interior from the dash to the carpet, but if you didn't know better you might not suspect her September 1975 build date, putting many late model trucks to shame... as we all know they certainly don't build them like this anymore.

Being a Georgia truck since new my bet is she must be a Dawgs fan and letting her colors show. She's a survivor that has yet to have her valve covers cracked open, and her rubber hoses still show their GM markings. Powered by a smooth 350 4bbl with her only modification being custom tru duals using the factory exhaust manifolds for a nice rumble, an easy shifting th350, and finishing off with her 12 bolt rear end, its as much fun to drive her as look at her

I appreciate the nomination. Unfortunately though she is still down for suspension/steering upgrades. It's so funny that you guys were willing to nominate me, because I had just contacted Bill (Palf70Step) yesterday about my curiosity of these two eligibility criteria:

It must be together and able to move on its own power.
The truck has to be licensed for street use.


Even though I have what I would consider some pretty decent pictures before the modifications, it's currently not able to move under it's own power.

As much as I love the 67-72s, this truck just makes me drool and have TONS of regret. I sold a Blue version twin of this truck back in 2001 and have regretted ever since. It was a BEAST!
