Arrow TOTM-February 2010

Just to let them guys up at corporate know, they may discontinue them but they aren’t dead. The theme for this month’s contest

What a BIGGIE!!

Our Truck of the Month theme this month is about those trucks with good ole gas sucking power of a big block GM motor.

To be an eligible for this month’s contest
  • Open to all years and models of Trucks, Blazers, Suburbans, Tahoes, Yukons, and Jimmys.
  • It must be powered by a GM Big Block. This not only includes our loveable Chevy big block, but those by Caddy, Olds, Buick, and Pontiac.
  • The must be together and able to move on its own power.
  • 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. Just add the nomination to this thread. We will need two pictures minimum with/for the nomination. One picture of the engine (at least) and one full outside view of the nominee's vehicle, as well as the owner’s board name, and the any specs of the truck (interior details, year, engine/drive train specs).

Nominees will run through January 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 January 25 and will run until the morning of February 1st. The official announcement of the winner will be on the afternoon of February 1st. The announcement of this month’s TOTM winner will be posted through the General Discussion Board area.

So let those pipes roar, the big block lives on FOREVER!!!!
