I noticed that there is a lot of Buffalo area Thirdgenners here. If anyone is from the Rochester area, give us a line! If anyone knows where I can find a decent dealer for American Racing wheels here in WNY I'd be very grateful. Most specifically, I need to know where I can find one of their older center caps.

Hellraiser

We can order american racing rims at work, but i wouldnt call us a decent dealer to work through... takes too long. I would call American racing directly - i'll post the number here for you tonight after work.

You must be talking about a different guy. I have lived here in LeRoy for 17 years, 18 in January. I'm kinda in between Rochester and Buffalo, but it's the same area.

I wouldnt mind trying to get some people together again closer to xmas time..im stuck in fredonia for the next 2.5 weeks, but then ill be home for a month for xmas break.

I don't know how you westerners can deal with the damn troopers out there. I am from just east of Syracuse and drove out to Buffalo to pick up my sister from Canisius. Got pulled over 4 times within a half hour. 1 Ticket.(1 for 4 ain't bad) But they were all between Buffalo and Corfu on the thruway. We should start gathering at the Hot Rod Nationals in Syracuse every year. If anyone is interested let me know I will try to set something up. BTW this show is the biggest car show on the east coast now and have some killer cars.

92CamaroRS305, I'm absolutely interested in attending the Hot Rod Nationals. I'm sure some of the other people here would be interested too. When are they being held this year? It'll be great if I have my car up and running in time for them, but even if it isn't i'd want to go. It's also a great excuse to stop at Turning Stone Casino :-)

KCobain147

hey jeremy, if you want the number to that guy that did my paint..give my cell a call

92CAMARORS305

Jeremy,
My bad. I just checked the site and your car needs to be pre-80's to enter. I still plan on attending just wont be able to enter our cars. DAMN Turning Stone!!! I have "spent" a lot of dough there. About 20 mins from the house.

92CAMARORS305

Oh. hey guys. UPDATE........ Ticket was dropped from 89mph in 65mph zone to a Disobey Traffic Signal and a parking ticket. Totalling $235 and 2 points instead of *** knows how much money and 6 points. NOT BAD!!! Jeremy forgot the date of Syracuse Nats - - - July 16th-18th I am gonna try like hell to get there.

KCobain147

anyone up for a gathering tues the 13th?

DigitalMonarch0

Hey, I'm a fellow Rochestarian.

We all should think about getting a trip to the lake or something together this spring/summer on that famous Sunday Night Cruise Nights.

Anywho, just wanted to say hey

birdybird

hey, I think my car is going to be fixed in March. It could cost alot and im afraid to find out how much.

DigitalMonarch0

nice gir... I mean car. Needs to lose the bra though.

92CAMARORS305

What the girl or the car? Personally I think both would be better without the bra. lol just playin...... serious but playin

birdybird

Hey, leave my bra alone! Its gone anyway, it was ripped in the accident................um..............im talking about the car guys.........
................................................................yea

birdybird

oh, and i just noticed that youngin comment cobain, very funny. I think that if we all want to get together in the summer, that would be great we could all have are cars out of hibernation, and i wont have the psycotic devil they call "UB" breathing down my neck. did any of you end up going to applebees? sorry i wasnt there If any of you locals use america onlines instant messenger tell me your name on it.

DigitalMonarch0

Just playin jen, sweet car. Are you in NY?

birdybird

Yes, i am in the buffalo area. Where are you? you probably said above, but i dont feel like looking for it

Inwo

It's depressing seeing some of these guys running their thirdgens in the snow around here. Holes rusted through the doors, hood strapped down with 200mph tape, or worse seeing one that seems otherwise rust free being used as a beater in the snow. Disturbingly common in Niagara Falls.

I agree on the thirdgen club around Buffalo though, seems like there are a lot of us in the area with semi-nice cars. There is already an Fbody club in the area but a ton of 4th genners end up taking over and us lowly thirdgenners are pushed aside.

So who wants to come over and finish porting my heads?

92CAMARORS305

Hey if you can't duck it FLJCK it. Yeah its sad. Third gens dont get very good traction anyways. Hell I have slid in the rain. Well I guess there is always snow tires but that would look real cheesy. If it is all rusty it is prolly a piece anyways so who cares.


Hey Jen my AIM is MyThirdGen or TheGreatBrandino. Both those are E-Mail too peeps.

DigitalMonarch0

Yeah, I live in the rochester area. I actually just came back from Buffalo a few days ago.

birdybird

Yea, not all of the third gens i see driving around in the winter look terrible though, some look like fresh paint! There are two red ones I see go down Walden Ave. all the time, and it upsets me every time. I mean, my car is outside and all, but its covered and its not getting salty. I would love to put it inside but um, my garage fell down a couple years ago...............really.

DigitalMonarch0

I try not to get mad at the idiots I see driving their thirdgens in the winter because i know that those cars will end up crashed or destroyed way before ours.

Meaning, an increased value for the well kept cars and more parts in the junkyards for people like us.

LiveRound

Wow, i havent been around in a few weeks and oyu people start talkin again?! lol anyway my AIM name Is yxxxjokerxxxy the aim is usually always on. Anyone from buffalo... or rochester feel free to IM me. I think ive seen your car around Jen... not positive. Mine is pretty had to mistake. its the only brown and gold 3rd gen around until i see other wise and i aint seen another one yet . ok well im an hour late for work so i gott go Later

birdybird

Would anyone in this area want to have a lil car get together and a cookout and all around fun time in the summer? there is a big parking lot at my work, and the owner of the company is cool. Even though he calls me a car geek.....beer food fun and thirdgens.....how can you go wrong? Let me know who would be interested, out of curiousity. My aim handle is redgtagirl.

92CAMARORS305

Digital very true about them going to parts yard for us to pic over but I would rather have someone with a nice camaro have an unfortunate accident and not care. Not a fellow third genner but just some kid that drives it cause it says camaro. If it is a piece before it goes into the yard chances are I'm not going to take any parts off of it.

LiveRound

3rd gens in the winter.... gRrRrR those poelpe should be castrated w/ a dull knife and thown naked into a salt silo.... not that i have anything against them

DigitalMonarch0

Count me in

birdybird

Does anybody else know how embarassing it is to take your allready ugly winter car through a Tim Hortans drive through (ahem....twice) with some stupid thing in your exhaust rattling like a son of a gun? It turned out to be a very odd plug and washer type of deal on the bottom of the catalytic converter. That small piece of metal was so loud, i had to yell over it and repeat my order a couple times. Than, i feel the need to explain myself, so i'm like " this started making this noise this morning." and the drive through kid is like " yea.......sure it did."
Dammit

LiveRound

Yea, my winter car hates me.... the drivers door handel broke off when i wnet ot open it this morning, then i go to pull out of my drive way and i realizre its stuck in reverse...... UGHGHGH


I WANT SUMMER BACK!!!!!!

DigitalMonarch0

I am leaving this winter hell hole as soon as I get my degree. Nothing is worth this crappy weather.

ONEFINE8T9

ya i guess im one of those idiiot who drive thier thirdgen in the winter though, i have a 25th anniversary camaro RS v8 5 spd red with black stripes and red leather with f41 suspention, its allright though my 85 trans am sits in my garage with 41k on it, it hasnt seen the road in years so driving my camaro doesnt bother me only drive it when its physically driveable though, my trans am is factory bright yellow, also the 1st year of TPI and a 9 bolt posi rear end with 3.27s, ya figured me being in the buffalo area and havent responded to this thread in a while i might as well tell about myself....

DigitalMonarch0

anyone interested in getting together in the spring?

ONEFINE8T9

i am, my birds probably wont see the road till mid summer though if that considering i have a nice camaro to put around town id hate to chip or scrath or even worse smash up my firebirds but who knows changes with me every other day, n y way im down to meet whoever whenever

birdybird

so maybe its your camaro i see, onefine, do you drive down walden ave?
and im not worrying about a get together just yet, i just wanted to throw out the idea, as that i have an area we could park all our cars at, or we could set up at some parks or who knows? we have alot of time to plan a mini thirdgen show, because winter lasts forever.

ONEFINE8T9

birdy sorry i cant talk longer my instructer jsut got here so i gotta go i left my # for n e one who wants to meet up, if i dont here from n e one i should be on here tomorrow around the same time.....mike

ONEFINE8T9

btw my camaro is birght red with black stripes, factory 16 inch wheels with red insides and red leather if you can see in the car, ya i go down walden a good amount, its a 5 spd to not like you could tell that moving right?? lol

LiveRound

Where you at the mall last night? i saw a car fitting that discription..... just wondering

Souseless

Hi
Just found this site. I am a wny third gen fan. I own a low mileage 89 TA ws6, 5.0 tpi w/ t5. Sadly the clear coat is totaly gone on top. I do not drag race the car but I do use it for track days and autocross. Autocross is like a mini road course for those that have not heard of it, and there are a bunch of local events during the summer. I would love to see more third gens there. Currently only a few of us at each race. I dont do very well but have a great time. By the way I found this site while searching for a rear axle. I am looking for a 10 bolt posi with disc brakes if anyone has any leads I could use some help.

LiveRound

I have a 9bolt posi w/ disk brakes... if your interested 100$

birdybird

Hey souse, that sounds like a fun time, and i'm always game for a good race. Let us know when those events happen, or where can we get information on them?

live round i believe it was monday night i was at the galleria mall, i was parked newr kahunaville and the movie theatres and all that, usually closest to the ramp so no one parks near me.....also on the lower ground effect peice there are 3 nasty chips on it, the previous owner hit one of those parking bumpers pulling into somewhere, not hard just enough to get that peice in 3 places, other than that its pretty clean (when i wash it)

Hello everyone, i didn't know there was so much activity going on in this thread! AOL decided that my alerts for replies on thirdgen.org threads was junkmail !
I'm definately up for meeting any time. Tom and I were the only ones to show at Applebees that night! but that's alright, I know Mike (Onefine8T9) was having some car problems that night and he wanted to be there. I think I'm the only one here doing a major restoration at this time. I'm swapping EVERYTHING from a rusting 88 Formula 350 into an 84 TA. Unfortunately, it's been too damn cold to work on it at all lately. I'm getting the already empty engine compartment repainted in the spring and then i'll start on the swap. In the meantime, I'd love to check out all of your cars and you can come visit mine until it's up and rolling. My # again is 984-2160 and my AOL name is JeremyNYR also.

Birdydird and anyone else that may be interested
The auto cross season starts with a school 4-18 and the first race is 4-25. I warn you that autocross is known to be addictive.
