Hey all,
Just to let you know, it is my father's car. BUT, I am not taking credit for owning the car. My dad, being the old fart that he is, can barely work a computer. lol I told him at the beginning of the month that his car got nominated, noting that in the nomination phase that it was stated that it was my father's car, for ride of the month and he freaked. He was so happy. Every couple days he calls me up bugging me to let him know what the vote is. I keep telling him to check it out himself...but it just ends in disaster and me getting frustrated because he cant seem to figure out how to work a freakin computer. But I do not claim that this is my car, I'm doing this for my father as it brought him a lot of joy. Like lilroush, my dad has put a lot of time, effort, and money into his car and when he sees other people appreciate the car and what he has done, it makes it all the more worthwhile. He thanks you all for your votes, as do I.
Thanks,
Teej

Not trying to down play how nice the GT 500 is, but I think it opens up a very grey area - now you don't need to be a member of the site to have your car nominated for a site award. Where is the line going to be drawn? Family? Friends? Guy somebody knows who owns a shop's race car?

Well I put effort into upkeep and such on the car. I'm mainly the one keeping the car clean when I go to shows and such as dad is too busy flapping his jaw instead of keeping the car clean. lol My father would love to be a part of this kinda forum so he could "flap his jaw" figuratively on the site with other guys with classics. But it is family, its something my father and I share and hold very dear to both of us. Friend's cars get grey but this is family. Its more on his behalf as he isnt capable of posting and hosting pictures and such. Its not like I'm flapping my jaw saying that its my car. It was stated from the beginning that it was his car. Plus I really wanted to surprise him with it.

I see no problem with Teej's dad's car being up for the voting. It is beautiful and practically his as well when you think about it. Totally different situation then someone on the forum nominating their friend's car or a shop's car that is not a member of the forum, no way to even compare that to this.
