Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

Well it looks like I will be moving down to the DFW area by the end of the year. I am from OKC originally and have been living in Tulsa for the last few years. I am definitely looking forward to being in an area with a legitimate 3rd gen following!

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

I live in Arlington TX. I just started my car for the first time in 8 yrs. Engine swap and tranny upgrade. 92 Camaro RS 25th Anniversary. I still have a lot of work to do on her, sensors and hoses etc. I was wondering if anyone had a similar camaro near me who can let me look at and trace some things out. Please let me know if anyone can help me out. My 3rd Gen is my baby, I just want to see her rolling again. Thanks guys.




SO CLOSE!

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

So its official! I will be closing on a house in Corinth in less than 2 weeks. Unfortunately the car is not operational yet, however now I have a goal to meet by getting it running by the end of August. I am hoping to drive it down there, but we will have to see what I can get done in the garage with the summer heat. It will definitely be refreshing to see some fellow Thirdgen enthusiasts in the area!

Thats nice of you Thanks, I'll keep it mind as I continue to fiddle around.

Also

I just joined the group on FB.

Keep in mind before this project car the most i'd ever messed around with a vehicle is oil change, spark plugs and wires , and headlight assemblies on my 07 silverado. So i'm still picking up info and trying to learn all the basic parts and function of engine assemblies and such but I am enjoying the process

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

Hey guys. I moved here recently and bought a 91 GTA from a user on the board. I'm wanting to get it painted soon. Can any of guys recommend a shop outside of Maaco that will do a great job, but not bend me over backwards on the money part? Thanks

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

My dads old friend owns a place called Freeway Motors in Dallas, rated as the best body shop in Dallas I believe. Check them out, they've done good work on my truck in the past. Not sure how much a full paint job will cost ya but they'll give ya a quote. guy that owns it is named Bobby, tell him Ellis' son sent ya

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

Would there be anyone that would be willing to take a look at my car? It's having a couple of issues lately that I'd love to have someone's opinion on. if so, my number is 214-436-7836. I'll even pay for a diagnostic from someone who is more familiar with these

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

Hey everyone. I'm a little late to this party, but I've been in the South Fort Worth area for the past 4 years, and I'm the proud owner of a 1990 Formula 350 that I restored. Do any of you know of a decent, affordable, and trust worthy shop to get some things done like A/C and replacing the fuel sending unit?

Have you ever converted you're ac over to r134, or is it still r12?. You're not going to find many places that still have the equipment to deal with r12 anymore. If you feel like driving to Arlington, my shop does pretty much everything.

Re: [DFW] Dallas & Fort Worth

Hey Travis. Yes, I've had the AC system completely overhauled once already, so it was converted and has about 5 year old lines, condenser, accumulator, and compressor, but it stopped blowing cold a couple of years ago, not to mention, before it went completely warm, the car would overheat with the AC on. It also needs a new blower motor.

I don't mind driving to Arlington at all. Can you PM me your shop details please? I'll give you a call when I'm ready to get the work done.
