    With this being the First month out the topic as stated above is

    Putting in work!

    So grab that camera, take some new shots, or hit up the recent archives and enter your car and show off. With the fact that this is going up a week into the month we will extend the entry date out to January 22nd.

    Negative... Its your car working. Pulling a trailer, hauling your snowboard, bringing home the groceries, taking the mountain bikes or canoe to the great out doors, etc...

    Would a trunk full of dead hookers count?

    I would think it's size dependent based on the hooker. I've seen some big enough hookers that I'd be hard pressed to get more than two in there.

    I love the thread idea...so I'll partake:

    Here's a pic of my STi's maiden voyage in the snow (previously a Vegas car). You can see the skis hidden up on top...I drove it down for some great skiing at Welch.

    I once knew a guy with a '64 Pontiac Bonneville, his name rhymes with strangledcupofchew. It looked a little like this one...

    MASSIVE trunk. You wouldn't believe the dead hookers we could get in there end-to-end... NO disassembly required. :bounce:

    It's my car's evil twin! Same exact color! Never thought I'd see another one locally. I just wish I had a fish house too.

    So, is this just a photo contest? Or are people going to post up a mod list and such too?



    Not that I can't respect a good trunk full of hookers photo.

    Yeah, what Dean said. I have the TR model, stripped down interior and such. I don't think I'd want leather. I test drove a limited STi, and it's not the best for those on ramps.

    Dean, pic fail.

    Did you happen to be jumping a white Oldsmobile Alero? I used to have one of those:

    That thing was truly a lemon...and this was the best day of that car's life:

    It is just a photo contest... This months is more of the generic theme, however the later months, mods might help out. But the main idea is a damn nice shot or 3, of a persons car...

    Up to 3 entries per person are allowed so the singular "photo" wouldn't work :D


    The 2 shots of your dads leggy will be accepted on your behalf even though the celica with mudders is a nice shot!


    Might be a bit goofy in January but its for bragging rights as Car Of the Month, so DO IT

    A side note after talking with a few people... This its the effort we are hoping for on this"CAR OF THE MONTH" contest. Take some time to set up a nice few shots. I know this month was kind of spur of the moment but going forward, lets get creative and see some top notch car porn! Not necessarily professional grade but a good amount of effort will get you bragging rights.

    Hatchbacks + Black Plastic Bags + Dead Tranny = Awesome
    It's not every day that you get to put someone else's dead tranny in your hatch. Usually they are cut up in pieces and fit much easier..... :facepalm: ..... We put the bags down so her fluids wouldn't ruin the inside of the car. Stupid dead trannys and their fluids
