Thanks to the owners of these cars for allowing us to feature them. And while they are all winner's we only have the budget for one prize. 

We need feature cars for 2019. We welcome all Canadian built Pontiac, Acadian and Beaumont models. They need not be show cars either!

 OK, so I did vote. Thought I might not as the lineup is too equal and I don't see the point of it.

Next year I'll toss all the owners names in a hat and draw a winner that way. I just thought the membership would enjoy a vote. As I said there's not enough of a budget to give every owner of a feature car a prize. I do this as my appreciation for these folks stepping up and allowing me to feature their cars.  Is this any different than the People's Choice award at a car show?

If you guys feel this isn't fair then I won't do it anymore.

I agree, it's just a fun thing, and somebody will win a gift certificate as a result.  Not stressful whatsoever, even though the choice was difficult.  Great feature cars from the past year!!

As the receiver of only one vote last year,

I will ask you please to keep the fun going.

I was not offended, we have a lot of nice cars here.

For me this year it was not tough.

You know I always vote 1969.

Except, last year, someone else voted for me.

Not trying to dampen this at all but will explain my thoughts. Starting off like many of you we have seen some of the cars and met the owners and most like our CP gang are really nice guys. Then throw in a couple or more very nice cars and when I see these owners post they seem like equally real good guys too and I feel Im hurting the other fellows when having to make a choice. I like the draw format as all the cars are unique and have a story so deserve to be featured cars. Definitely no sleep being lost over this though, the palm trees are moving with the breeze.

This was a particularly sterling year with a great variety of rides!  It would be tough to decide but I have to admit I do like a station wagon..... 

Me and my bro are taking the long drive tomorrow to do our favorite thing in the world; bring back an old car. 

Maybe this year there will be a 66 Beaumont 4 door hardtop featured....

Todd, I would suggest a hat draw might be the best, or nothing maybe, it's just really special to see your car "up in lights" for all to see and enjoy.

All the cars are great in their own way and the variety of models and years that are on display is always spread out with lots of variety.

 Yes, yes, and yes.

A draw would be lame.

If my derelict car was on equal footing as some of these great vehicles in a draw, would that be fair? No. The most disserved car should win.

Me personally; when voting for a favourite, I take in the whole history/story of the car. Some cars are much more interesting than others.
