November 2016 Ride of the Month Nominations are now open!

Cougar Community Ride of the Month
1

Please make an effort to let the nominees know they have been nominated and if possible make sure they are interested in participating.

Thanks!

This thread is where you will put nominations for the:

November 2016 Ride of the Month!

All you need to do is to identify the car and the owner. A picture of the car would be helpful if you can locate one.

As a reminder, here is how it works:

You can nominate any Cougar, even your own. All nominations must be seconded.

We will nominate cars until the 26th of the month,
then vote from the 26th to the 1st of the following month, and announce the winner.

A new thread honoring the winner will go up just as quickly afterwards as possible. Then we start all over again.

The winning car will be pictured at the top of the Forums header for the month.

The CCC.COM Ride of the Month is officially sponsored by:
West Coast Classic Cougar!

ROM Winners get:

Free Shipping on any order in the 48 states or a huge shipping discount on shipping any where else in the world.

A genuine WCCC Tee Shirt

A genuine WCCC Hat

Anything else Don feels like tossing into the box for free. (like packing peanuts or air? LOL!)

I hereby nominate Del Melhaff’s '67 XR-7, which was just completed this past week at WCCC. This was a project car that we sold a couple years ago (as seen in this video) to Del, and he commissioned us to get the car painted and assembled. Not normally something we do, but for some reason it worked out this time.

It was originally Fawn beige, but Del opted for [the much better looking] Inverness Green. The Saddle leather interior is all original, except for the carpet and headliner.

How cool! My Mom’s (now my nephew’s) '67 XR-7 license plate is VJP —!
Is Del’s car originally from Sacramento? Perhaps R-J Lincoln/Merc?
BTW that’s a beautiful car, and nice pix! Can I third it?
