Vette(s): Used to own a 1979 Corvette now owned by JB79

I received an offer from a member to pay for another member to become a Lifetime Member. He asked that a vote be taken to see who most deserves it.

Please reply by Friday 6/9 with which C3VR Member you feel deserves to have a free lifetime membership. Obviously you can not nominate someone that is already a lifetime member, so if you aren't sure... use the "Member Search" feature under the "Community" menu first to check if the member you want to nominate is already Lifetime. Also, you may not nominate yourself.

If you are uncomfortable placing your vote in public, please email me your Vote and I will keep it private: AdamW@VetteRegistry.net

The person with the most votes by 6/9 will receive the lifetime membership. If there is a tie, I will break the tie by selecting the member that has been a C3VR member the longest.

I'm not sure yet if the gifting member will reveal himself or not.

Ok... get voting!!!

Vette(s): 1975 C3 Red, T-Tops, Black Interior. All I need is time and money! Getting there!

I would like to nominate Bill Cogan, Captn Bill.

He was here a lot, then missed a bit due to cancer and lung surgery. We are starting to see him again. I think he is a good candidate.

I didn't say if the person buying the membership was lifetime or not.

The person does want to remain annonymous and said to say that it is "someone who loves C3VR so much they wanted to give one of the most liked members a gift for a lifetime."

By the way...some of you aren't voting.. you're just posting "thanks to the member who is doing this". While you're at it... vote!!

Thanks!

Vette(s): 1979, 350sb, as my kids affectionately call it "shit brown" Corvette purchased in 1996. 84,000+ miles. Not a show car, but I love her just the same.

Isn't there some way to use the member search to eliminate lifetime members, and get a complete list of the rest of the members? That would make our choices much easier in the long run.

I hafta vote for Itsdave92570. When I was a young pup in a big shrk tank he made a similar offer for a standard membership to someone who he gave a list of criteria for.
I was ridin that free fishin boat at the time and was honored to receive his offer. I have since upgraded status and have enjoyed the company 10 fold.
Although I don't see him on here as much anymore I still remember his kindness and generosity. I have thanked him previously.
This offer would be a befitting thanks to someone who cared enough to give the 1st time and asked nothing in return.
