Anyone on here or know the guy with a red TA/Firebird that lives in the NW? Its got gold rims, possibly tint in the back *coudlnt tell cause of the rain* and was parked at the PetroCanada by Northland this afternoon around 1? Sweet looking ride.

83_Camaro_83

er, the louvers? I always had mixed feelings on those. When I was a kid my neighbor had an 85-90 TA that was totally badass, with louvers, but another guy down the street had a thirdgen z28 without em and it looked just as good..





hm, come to think of it, it's no suprise I got a thirdgen myself..

JamesY

Because I have yet to find an accurate source of information on doing a v8, all there is, is tidbits and tidbits, I also have no tools at home but I have an engine hoist, figures. All my tools are at work which makes swapping engines interesting. Plus I plan on getting a Cutlass like my buddy had and swapping the 305 out for something a "little" bit better.

i'm more in than.. umm. something that's REALLLY in.

83_Camaro_83

.......more than oprahs into baked ham

anything?? lol

JamesY

What shows do u watch when u have nothing to do












Yah once this POS gets runnig I'll be up for a cruise every night

83_Camaro_83

So is that it, you judge people on what shows they watch. Forshame

lol

A cruise every night would use all my money for the engine for gas money since my pos runs SO rich.

If i had a dollar for every gallon (yeah gallon) i burned of gas, I would be ever so rich

JamesY

Hell atleast yours runs

If I had a 4 billion dolars fo revery inch it moved by itself, I would be broke...

JamesY

ooooo this could be interesting.... let me know what you guys think.


I found a guy looking to build up a profile of multimedia and graphic and web design stuff he has built so that companys can look at what he has done and consider hiring him, I asked him if he would build us a sweet looking GEN-3 site or do some graphics or decals or something, he said sure I just have to let him know what everyoen wants it to look like and pitch thier ideas.

Basically he uses it for his portfolio down the road and we get a nice lookin website out of the deal.

Yay or Nay?

83_Camaro_83

Hahaha you would be negative $$

But yeah, isnt it past your bedtime?

83_Camaro_83

YAY I think if it were to happen, it should be all about me and my so kick *** car....HA! yea right.... But yeah you should talk to "No Saint" from the f body boards cause he has a gen 3 calgary site thats never updated lol

JamesY

Yah never updated and looks like a historical site if u ask me :P

83_Camaro_83

**** THIS WEATHER!!! arrgg, need to get a cruise going.

Also, I wanna just take my car to a road course track...anyone know of a free place just to screw around?

JamesY

Dunno but I am going tomorrow and getting him to just fix it for me so hopefully by Friday it will be mobile, I need to cruise too

GF just about left me, luckly my smart *** decided to call her and see if we broke up or just a breather, and its a breather so I'm a little better but still need to go hitup Highway 2 (I refuse to call it the Queen Elizabith) around 2am or so, releave soem stress.

83_Camaro_83

Sorry to hear that man

Good luck with the car though

JamesY

Ok, sorry to bring it to you guys, Ive decided on the following.

Buy this 85 Regal
Sell the Camaro
Have somethign that runs and fast

I will still come cruise with u guys if u want, at the end of the pack haunting your asses but I wont be owning one, unless I dont buy this for some reason.

Mayeb I will look into a cheap v6 Camaro for a winter car as this isnt winterable. Then I can still be considered a part owner

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

ah, well, a v8 in a Buick is better'n a 6 in a Camaro, I guess. From a straight-line standpoint. Stock.

But I got through the winter ok in my T/A... But then.. I had brnad new winter tires and didnt have to go far.

JamesY

Well 3.73s in rear, untuned carb, head upgrades and a few more things = unfreindly witner driver, especially since it would be my first winter in a car I owned with more then 100hp :P

reddawg

ok guys and girls....when is the next meet?

83_Camaro_83

I guess i'll post in this thread, since i'm from Calgary, and that's the point of this thread (well, was...)

I'm in the Dalhousie area, stones throw from the station. My car is on blocks now, as i'm restoring it this winter. Suspension first. (now)...

I'm a mechanical engineering intern, taking a year off for an internship. Then going back to UofC for 4th year. oh yea, I like long walks on the beach, and blondes

oh yea, Ryan, i'm coming down to **** in your gas tank, 'cuz I know where you work!!! while you're working i'll be the guy stumbling around looking for a white TA... (i'll have filled up on straight Rye or something, so it'll be mostly alcohol... for performance of course... i'm a nice guy after all!)

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

Huh? what the hell?

edit: I'm slightly more glad I have the locking fuel door and gascap........

83_Camaro_83

are you coming on to us??

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

no, he's looking for employment. :P


Sorry, you're out of luck. he isnt coming on to you.

83_Camaro_83

Haha after all the cracks ive made at you, you FINALLY got one back haha

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

WHOO!

Er, I mean HEY. What cracks?


Nono, dont remind me..

Sonix

iTrader: (1)

You said you weren't going to tell anyone where you worked, you didn't want anyone knowing where you parked your car... You also wouldn't tell me which QUADRANT you lived in! And boy, if I knew what quadrant you were in before, I would found your TA in a heartbeat! (of course there'd only be come 3rd gen in south calgary.... with forest lawn and all....LOL)
Anyway, that's why I was impressed that I knew where you worked, to leak in your gas tank... but again, my plans are foiled...


hmm, too bad i'm restoring my TA, it'd be kinda dismal to show up to a 3rd gen meet in a '92 Grand Prix... (hey check it out fellas, a DOHC V-6! whoohoo!)

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

Oh, ok then. Are you drunk NOW? :P

83_Camaro_83

better than mine

creepingdeath

Anyone got a camaro roller for sale in alberta preferably close to red deer. anything under $2000. doesnt have to have bumpers GFX, hood, engine, transmission, would like a 5 spd but auto is fine.

JamesY

Sure do.

86 Camaro 2.8L *bottom end ****ed, good for v8 swap which is what you are probaly doing arent u*, near perfect interior, you get everything with it, although it is a v6 tranny not 8 so you would have to change that which would give u manual or auto. I can also hookup a deal with a 4 speed manual, actually 4 of them for a couple bills if your interested.

Let me know, 6197995, oh yah, lookin for $900 w/ all the new v6 igniton and such, $600 without.

creepingdeath

Oh by the way if its not a Z28 then im definatly not intrested..ive owned 2 berlinettas and both of them were peices of sh*t. plus i need something i can bolt GFX up to.

83_Camaro_83

iTrader: (1)

Well this is just a thread, that is long.. We could start a new thread....
I was going to, showing the progress on my rebuild, I know 305qta was interested...

83_Camaro_83

haha i wish i could show progress but i have none...lol....cause its my daily driver.....

by the way man, you owe me a race remember

Sonix

iTrader: (1)

83_Camaro_83

haha good stuff.....ive had a few races this year.....

Chrysler sebring - Won, totally killed it
Chrysler 300 - Won, didnt even touch the floor
05 mustang GT - YEA won!! close though
71 dodge dart (360) - WON hehe
IROC - lost it was a 305 too.... i dunno what happened

305q_ta86

iTrader: (1)

For a second I thought you were talking about your 83 and I was really confused. Heh.

I wish I could get another thirdgen. Being a college student with no money means I get to watch the TA get a little more run down each day. Time for a resto...

89RSCanada

Hey everyone just wanted to say hi from Red Deer....ill tryin post my car pic well one.....we'll see if it works*LOL

WillSpeedy

I live on an acreage east of Red Deer( near Alix). I just bought an 88 convertible. Currently putting subframe connectors. I can't wait to hit the road with the top down. I am thinking about joining the calgary camaro club. Or maybe the cruisers club of red deer.

reddawg

.....look out.....tumbleweed comming through!

WillSpeedy

Yep it's a total snooze fest in here.

83_Camaro_83
