Hi, i just posted this to see if anyone is into 1983 camaro as i am, i have everything you could probably think of book/info wise. A lot is not pictured just because id have to lay it all out, but this pic gives you the idea. -Shop manual -All magazines testing 1983 Camaro, including the road and track that has my exact model and color on the COVER! -Body Manual -1983 Service bulletins -Owners Manual -1983 Camaro brochere -1983 Full Line Chevrolet Brochere (with camaro on front) -1983 Camaro Cananda Brochere -1983 Full Line Revised Full Line Chevrolet Brochere (with 1984 Vette on cover) -1983 Chicago Autoshow folder with pictures and info on new camaro model -1983 Hot wheels Camaro -1982-83 Chiltons -1982-1983 Parts and Illustration probably some other things that im forgetting.

Well you do have a very nice,and useful,collection.I have just about everything you have except for the full line Chevrolet brochures.I know I have the magazines it's just I'd have to go thru 30 years of car magazines to find them(something I've been meaning to do).One you are missing is the '82-'84 Haynes manual(I just came across one).

Ive never seen a haynes but im sure id buy one if i did to add to this what i like to call car show dream collection

I’m also in the midst of a project to digitize my part catalogs. Here some interesting tidbits so far. The 82-84 firebird catalog has about 8000 parts. The 82-92 parts catalog has about 20,000 parts. When I get a 82-92 Camaro parts catalog I’m going to digitalize it and find out how many part the Camaro and Firebird share. Well… I think its interesting anyway.

you guys can't even hold a candle to Mr. Turbo TA here on the boards. His garage is like a museum of pontiac stuff.

That's quite a collection you guys have.

I bet Mike(Midwest Muscle) has more information and original documentation about 85 Irocs and TTA's than anyone else.

Second that one, been visiting George several times both at his old place in SoCal and in Kingman ... and he got some stuff most people never thought existed :-)

I got a pretty good collection my self ... all 1982-92 Pontiac product books, most advertising books, 82-92 Firebird press kits, 82-92 Pontiac and Firebird dealer brochures and post cards etc etc.

Is there are 1982 Firebird press kit? I've never seen one.

THe press kit for 1982 is not like the one for 1989, From what I have seen its like a bunch of drawings for dealers to cut and then paste into an ad...

John

I have never seen a Press Kit having the cut out photos, just the Ad Planners.
Here's just a few pictures of some of my stuff.


These are all brochures, Press kits, Product Books, Fleet Product Books, Ad Planners, and Aftermarket brochures, like MSE, Autoform, and Bandit II Trans Ams, are just a few.
From 1965 thru 2006.
As for diecast, I have a few.
Here is just a small sampling.


Jan,
You'll have to come back out and visit.
I have since gotten a bunch more stuff.
Robert here , is a Camaro guy, who I hope to convert soon (into a Trans Am)
I'm sure he wishes I had this stuff as a Camaro collection instead.
Next time you head out this way, I'll invite some thirdgenners over for you to meet.

Enjoy!

George

All I have to say is that if you can manage to type out a list...you dont have nearly enough.

George has the most extensive collection I have ever encountered.

Hi there Dan!
How are things out there?
We finally got temps in the mid 70s here!
I love it, time for shorts!
I have been going thru some more things in boxes, and you would love to see them all!
How are your collections going?
Someday, I will take out those Trans Am Billboard Ads, and take pictures of them all together.
Have you done that with yours yet?
Give me a call sometime, we can chat for awhile.

Later,

George

Hey George, Its cold in NJ! And I have a cold

I have not opened up my Billboard since I got it. I removed one panel to confirm what it was and put it back in the box.

As far as the Firebird "collections" Nothing new to report. Just the usual 1:18's, J/L's, ads, brochures, dealer books...Most of the really cool stuff I got from you anyway
----------

John,
Are you referring to a 1982 merchandiser catalog? It was a supplement to the dealer albums and contained various drawings of each model to be placed in advertisements. It also had various signs you could order and hang up at the dealership etc...
