I usually see a handfull of nice 'Birds & 'Maros every summer... This year, I can't recall seeing anything notable!

Where is everybody at???

BackInBlackGP

I'm in Malletts Bay. The Lake is practically my front yard. I have a 104 year old Great Grandmother in Springfield!

I'm up in the Burlington area now and then (family up there). If you're in the Springfield area let me know!

Sir Speed A Lot:
I've seen your car around....you were in Claremont though. Yup, I still have a Bird. White '88 Formula with polished wheels.

I'm up in Colchester, and just drove my camaro around Malletts Bay yesterday. I use to have a red 84 z28 but recently sold it and got a red 91 z28 with black heritage stripes. The new car is pretty nice but has badly oxidized paint on the hood and roof. I have seen quite a few nice thirdgens in the Burlington area this year. There is another red 91-92z with an ss hood, a couple nice formulas and firebirds, and a couple nice irocs that I see driving around quite often. Do you know if there are any cruise in spots in the area? It just seems like there are alot of nice cars up here, but no cruise-ins or shows in general.

I will try to get a picture of the new car and post it up on this thread.

If I ever get mine put back together and on the road again, I know of a few places to watch the sunset from... Overlook park on Spear St. is a good place to start... It's not bad from my front yard, either...

Cruising up through the Islands is a nice ride as well...

Nazzz28

Here is a picture of my z28. I swapped my centerline matrix wheels onto it already. I have alot of suspension stuff, and a banks exhaust ready to go on. I was out the other day and spotted a really nice black formula, and another red 91-92 z28.

89FormulaLS2

I'm over here in Lyndonville, just north of Saint Johnsbury.

I believe there are 4 3rd Gen Formulas in the area, and quite a few really nice Camaros.

My TPI is coming out next week, so I won't be cruisin' over towards Burlington way for a while. The LS1 is going in, but I hope to have it back on the road by August.

Sir Speed A Lot

FIII, we should get together sometime... This last friday I got a 136.00 ticket for laying a brake stand in the mcdildos parking lot in springfield. I was comming back from Six Flags

BackInBlackGP

Gonna' bump this up a bit... Looking for the fella with the burgundy 'Bird that works at Advanced on Shelburne Rd...

Nazzz28

I talked to a guy a few times that worked at the Advance Auto at Exit 14 off of I-89, that had a burgundy bird. Maybe he got transfered to Shelburne Road. He was a young guy and was nice, but I never saw him on the boards. I have been noticing that there are quite a few third gens in the Burlington area this year. I am still right over in Colchester, and just wish there were some cruise-ins around here.

Nazzz28,

Colchester....isn't that where people's cars are getting shot at with pellet guns? I'm from Springfield and saw it on the news last night. If it is.........scary stuff.

Nazzz28

I live between Essex and Colchester and I quess they were shooting quite a ways out of town. I heard that they brought in the police search dogs and everything to catch them.

Nazzz, yep that's the guy. Can't remember his name though. I've been to his house over in the North End 2 summers ago. I told him about this site and didn't know if he joined or not.

Just got the car registered and insured today. Inspection later this afternoon before it rains for the next 11 days...

Where are you in Colchester? I'm in the bay off E. Lakeshore where the lake is my front yard...

Somebody should put together a BBQ at Bayside...

Nazzz28

I'm near Saint Michaels. What does your TA look like? Oh by the way I saw that burgundy bird out tonight when I was over by UVM.

BackInBlackGP

No kidding. My wife went to St. Mikes. Spent many a weekend there. Ahh, the good old days...

I have the midnight blue special edition. You will only see it out on sunny days. The car has never seen snow and no rain in the last 8 years. I wash it once a year wether it needs it or not...

I have friends over near the big steepled church in Winooski. If I'm in the area, you'll hear me coming...

I live over in Plattsburgh...

Bird Addict

Hi! I am from Stowe. I have two on the road TAs and an old project waiting. You still hanging around the boards Vters? I am trying to put together a vt fbody club. If any are interested email VTFBodyClub@msn.com. Maybee we can get a bunch together to hit Als or the Blue line one nite...

Let me know...

F Small

BackInBlackGP

Count me in! Be sure to order some decent weather, though... I might have to trade the Bird in for a boat...

BackInBlackGP

Get together? Yes? No? Let us know so I can wash the car....

Bird Addict

Hi, I would love to get together somewhere. Everyone here plan a time...the Stowe Antique Car show is coming up, maybee we can cruise up to Munchies in Morrisville and take it over one of those nites...I am up for anywhere tho, Burlington is a hop away for me... We should plan a nite in 2-3 weeks and give everyone time to plan it out and just meet where it would be most convenient. I just saw a sweet red 73 on 189 yesterday! I would love to find the owner of that. Maybee he has some parts kickin around I could use on my 73 project car...

Everyone post when and where it will be good for them...I am trying to enter the Stowe Car show with my Bandit if the weather holds, but I am free at nite to meet that weekend. Maybee I can talk the wife into driving the 84 too... Lets do this! We need to get the F-Body people in Vermont together so at least we can network for parts if nothing else!

Ford Small

Nazzz28

I would be up for something just let me know. I have to get the car back on the road (replacing the valve seals), otherwise it isn't much to look at right now (clear is peeling) but I'm in. I have seen alot of thirdgens in the area as well as second and fourth gens so maybe some of them are members too. I will let my brother-in-law know, he can possibly bring his 79 z28.

Bird Addict

Hey, I am more than interested if people want to do this. Email VtFBodyClub@msn.com let me know where you live in Vermont so we can put together a meet close to the most people...If only a handful respond, maybee we can just take over als one nite in B-town or a local creemee joint closest to the most responders...

Hit me up!

Sir Speed A Lot

I live near springfield VT but will travel up to an hour and 1/2 for an OGRANIZED meet (5+ cars) or up to an hour to get together with a few guys... let me know...

Springfield here.......

definitely interested.

BackInBlackGP

I'm in Malletts Bay (Colchester). I washed the car anyway, so I'm good to go!

Definately need a few day's notice or so. I will need a bit of time to set up a babysitter. Daytime/early evening is good, since I don't drive the car at night if I can help it.

Good to see some GMB's up around (green mountiain boys). I haven't been driving since I blew the transmission up in 04' but here she was the last 2 years before. https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...21#post2448321 (PAGE 4 under AC post) Next summer I'll have it done and out. 710hp 383 with Procharger D1 14lb boosted engine built by RPM in Georgia with a TKO600 / SPEC stage 4 behind her.

BackInBlackGP

You'll let me take it for a spin when you're finished, right?

BackInBlackGP

Ok, so how does Saturday, August 27th sound for AL's in South Burlington, on Williston road?

Rain date for either the following day or the weekend after Labor Day. (Sorry, but I don't run my car in the rain)

Thoughts? Opinions?

Nazzz28

I could possibly go to that. However, I am waiting to find out if my family will be having a reunion either that weekend or the one before. The weekend after labor day (10-11th) I will be going to the Adirondack Nationals Car Show in Lake George, NY, so I know I can't go to that. I met a guy with a second gen firebird this weekend when I was out for a drive in Malletts Bay. He let be know that there is a cruise-in, for any kind of car, over in the back lot by the Dicks sporting goods in Williston (by exit 12) every wed. night at ~6PM. I didn't know if anyone would want to go to something like that. I guess you can find out about any events or shows that are going on in the area there.

Terry

Nazzz28

I don't think I will be in town on the 27th because that is when our family get together is going to be.

Terry

BackInBlackGP

That's fine. Turns out there is something else going on here too...

How about the weekend of September 17th or 18th?

Or even drop in on the guys at Dick's on Wednesdays...

Nazzz28

I think the weekend of the 17th and 18th would work for me. I was going to check out the thing at Dick's last night until we had the thunder storms roll through. I wouldn't mind going there next week if the weather cooperates just let me know and we could possibly meet somewhere and head over.

Terry

BackInBlackGP

Drop me an email. IF the weather holds up for next Wed., I'm game. Need to figure out why she's only running on 5 cylinders today, though...

BackInBlackGP

Well, the Wednesday night gathering produced around 20-25 cars, ranging from Cobra kit cars to 500hp Chevelles... Nazz and I didn't get much of a huge welcome, but at least we were representin' the ThirdGens!

There definately needs to be a Blue Line or Al's dinner gathering before the snow flies...

BackInBlackGP

Well, I'm done for the summer. The car's all put away until next year, with less than 900 miles added to the odometer.

See you all next year!
