Fortunately for some and unfortunately for others, favorites won't matter as the winner is to be picked randomly.

Stephen C. Blakeney is our winner for Fall Car of the Quarter with Nissan Sport!! Congratulations, and thanks much to all who participated.

[NissanSportSara]

Stephen, I need to double check the eligibility of your cars on this site, since it's ClassicZCars.com ... I'll let you all know if it'll be Stephen or if it'll go to runner up.

[NissanSportSara]

Alright, here's the verdict. I'm going to default to runner up for car of the quarter, since this site is classiczcars.com, so Richard, you're the winner for this contest.

However, Stephen ~ We are very interested in your cars!! What I would like from you is a formal vehicle submission of your 810 and your L320 to look at for feature in Behind the Wheel in the Winter 2007 issue - those are beautiful vehicles of a variety that we've not much had. Please email me at sarah@nissansportmag.com! What I will need is a write up of the vehicles and some pictures, basically describe their stories. Thanks so much for participating!

[Sailor Bob]

Hey Sarah - thanks, please advise what if anything you will require. I got to hit the hay, it's 10 after 1 am up this way and I have to get up with kids for school at 7. Talk to you tomorrow.

[NissanSportSara]

Thanks, Sailor Bob! I appreciate everyone who participated. I believe I've got all that I need, but if not I'll let you know tomorrow.

[sblake01]

Same here, thanks. Let me know what kind of write up you need, size of pictures etc. and how soon and I'll get to work on it. I have to be up early tomorrow also. Maybe I should have submitted a picture of my Z but it's pretty basic and there are so many nice Zs on this site.

[Chino 240Z]

Cheers! :classic:

[NissanSportSara]

sblake01, I PM'd you in regards to what I'd like to get from you. Thanks! :-)
