I think our leader should get a shot at it too.

Ryan, thanks man, WoW! Thanks a lot for your help and everyone's help, I could not have Fred where it is now without all of you. I have never done anything like this before so it has been amazing every step of the way.

You all taught me how to weld, what kind of blast cabinet, what kind of media for the blast cabinet, what kind of air compressor, everything I know about Fred and the hobby of restoration I have learned from all of you. Thank you with all my heart.

In case there is room for one more, I would like to nominate Ryan's fastback, its almost out of project stage and it looks amazing.

I didn't see it in the COTM winners.

Thanks Abe, but I won last year's "Project COTM."

I will be working on Fred tomorrow AM before heading over to Craig's shop across the bridge to help out with Justin's Mustang for a few hours and will take some pics to post for everyone tomorrow.

I'm not sure it is a project anymore, but it was just completed: Stangg's 68. See http://www.stangfix.com/testforum2/index.php/topic,11618.msg144236.html#new for the full skinny. He converted a coupe to a fastback and used his own hand-built frame and suspension. Very impressive.

I appeciate the nomination, but it's out of the project phase for almost 3 years now... I've been working on that build thread off an on over the last two years... just finally got around to posting it.

abrahamfh · « **Reply #17 on:** March, 04, 2011, 12:34:43 PM »

That poll went up freakin fast.

Does this mean your keeping Gert' Kat?

Ponyman66 · « **Reply #18 on:** March, 04, 2011, 06:08:02 PM »

Wow! Thanks Kat! I really appreciate the nomination. I'm happy to say I'm pullin' for Abe's project. If Ryan hadn't stated his car already won once, I would throw in with Abe's vote on it!

Abe, here's to pullin' for ya!!

Thank you soo much, I really appreciate it.

Ryan has really helped a lot via posts and PM;s, technical and motivation. The progress and documentation of his project has been a true inspiration.

i think there should be more then 5 nominations for project cars, seems like theres more projects then completed cars on the forums therefore there should be more cars to choose from. (Years: models: etc)

Getting to many up for voting would cause the votes per car to be extremely low....thus making a tie very likely. Just gotta be fast on the nominations. It would help if more voted on the polls too.
