Clean = "show pride in your ride"

The Featured Ride does not have to be some macked out G35c or S13 w/ RB26DETT swap (both would be nice choices though). As long as your car is clean and well maintained it will have a chance.;)

What ever information that you are comfortable giving. Some brief history about how you got into cars. Why you picked the car that you have. What you like most about your Ride. All the information that you have on your car (specs, number made that year etc).

What we are looking for right now are some candidates for the first one. When we decide who it will be I will contact that person and get all the details we need for the real write up, along with some good pictures.

Here PPL, its like this:

Hi, My name is Dan (240sx2nr95) and i have a 1995 240sx base model. It is Concord Gray which seems to be a rare color and was only availiable in 1995. My car is OBDI, and equipped with an automatic transmission until i can collect all the parts to swap it to a manual (which will hopefully be coming this spring.) I have done a few modifications to my car, and they are as follows:-removed pinstriping-added S14b OEM projector foglights-AEM Shortram intake w/custom heatshield-Apex'i N1 Dual exhaust-custom cupholder courtesy of a member of this board.-17" Racing Hart Evolution C5 wheels wrapped in 205/40/17 Kumho 711's-300zxTT fuel filter and Royal Purple Fluids throughout the whole car-OBX clear bumper lenses

Parts i have awaiting install are as follows:-Z32 300zxTT 30mm Aluminum calipers-stainless braided adaptor lines-Russel SpeedBleeders-Motul DOT 5.1 brake fluid-Brembo Slotted rotors-KYB AGX shocks-Sprint Springs (used, courtesy of a friend)-Cusco OS front strut bar

I've been into cars as long as i can remember, my mother and grandmother recount stories of me spending my childhood playing with hotwheels and looking out the window while making engine noises as a baby. My passion for them has just grown since then and have progressed so much, i've decided to enroll in Universal Technical Institute in AZ which i will be attending this coming August. I got my car a little over a year ago from a small used car dealership in Lawerence, KS. I had been looking for an S14 for quite some time and chose the S14 240sx for its awesome suspension, incredible weight distribution, and the obvious RWD platform. Upon first sight of the car, i fell in love with it and have loved it since, although it sees more time in the garage than it does on the road, its still a joy to be able to go down there and see it. I have many plans for this car and will pursue those plans as money becomes availiable...."never enough money..."

(included are 3 pics)My car in stock form, soon after buying her.An engine shot with AEM shortram/heatshield.As it sits b4 suspension is installed.

(Although u will want to obviously attach LARGER pictures.)well, now u get the idea.

Yes.

Also all cars deemed interesting can make it.

We other Mods/admins are leaving the judging, pretty much up to Dane and Nick so I cannot speak completly for them.

Criteria include "cleaness", "niceness" and "performance" and "specialness".

So Completely different cars could make it at given months.

I would submit a non beater car regardless , one can never predict what priorities are eminent a given month.

I have a feeling no Mods/Admins will submit cars for the first couple months.

My car is the exact opposite of what they're looking for..

I'd use the money from my truck to make my hatch that good, but then it'd be all show and no go. :(
