Meet Bruce Hawkins at Thirdgen Expo 2015. Details inside!

Hey guys, as many of you already know, Hawks Thirdgen Parts has agreed to support the Expo by donating some items to give away at the event. However during our conversation, Bruce said he really wanted to attend the event in person and bring some toys with him, but it's a long drive from South Carolina. He said if we had enough people attending the event, he'd make the trip up in person.

So here's the deal. If we can get 100 cars pre-registered for the event by April 3rd, I think we can get Bruce and some of his toys to come all the way from SC for the event. He said if he comes he can take pre-orders and hand deliver parts on-site etc. So if you want to hang out with some of the Hawks team and see some of the coolest thirdgens in existence, pre-register HERE. And then tell us how many cars and people you're bringing HERE. And then if you want to, show us pix and talk about what you're bringing HERE.

Thanks to everyone who can participate, we're going to make this the biggest and best thirdgen F-body event in the nation. Hope to see you all there!

Haha that's the idea! Jokes aside, we are all in on making this the finest event featuring third generation F-bodies in the world. This event is going to be worth the drive for anyone who loves these cars. Hopefully it's obvious that we are committed based on the vendor involvement we have gotten already, and I'm not done yet. This isn't O'Reilly's donating car wash soap. These are vendors that are in good standing in this community, dedicated to our hobby and dedicated to providing parts specific to our cars. I think that's a big deal and I'm excited about it.

If anyone cares anything about Thirdgens, this WILL be the place to be bar none. Regardless if you're into low miles original time capsules, or bare knuckled street fighters, the best in the area will be at this event along with the guys and gals that own them.

How bout this TTOP350, you offered so much help to BIGMODS and I on the Power Tour back in 2011, I'll pay your registration fee if you make the drive.

I really appreciate the offer Just doing what any other thirdgen guy would do.
Maybe I'll bring 2 of them up?
I haven't ever had them tuned either.. Maybe I could get you to take a peak at them..

He isn't coming this year for sure. We need to see how big this thing will be before he comes up here with truck and trailer from South Carolina.
