K, Go

 

I can't vote, it's too hard to choose

 

Some beautiful rigs again this month!

I know many of you are on the fence about voting since basslicks pulled out the heaviest of heavy artillery in mods: The "custom" holes in the floorboards covered with license plates. LMAO!

btw, one of these contestants doesn't meet the entry criteria even though it is a beautiful XJ...

Just sayin'.

 

damn nitro isn't that pic from 2010. updates man!

 

Atmos,

Actually I have been stationed in Europe for the last 5 years, so I have not had any chance to get updated pics, and my Baby is in storage. May be back in good old USA next year.

Nitro

 

Hard Competition.

 

That's the kind of custom that can't be duplicated

 

Which one is that?

 

Jordan. Rules say 25 post minimum; profile says he only has 12.

 

Ah, I missed that.

Oh well. All the rules have been overlooked lately due to lack of participation. I do good to get 5 entries. I sure don't get enough to kick folks out.
