anybody go to Kitty's in north reading on Thursday nights ? or any other cruise nights ?
I haven't been yet this year but it's usually a great show in terms of variety. Usually never any third gen Camaro's or Firebirds but lots of more uncommon stuff like AMX, second gen Montes' etc

I'm from Revere Kitty's in north Reading is a good cruise night on Thursdays.
Revere! HA!
We used to cruise the beach up at Kelly's all the time back when my IROC was new. I lived in Brookline right up Sutherland Road from Cleveland Circle. Good times, I'll need to cruise them again when I get the car restored.

I haven't been to Cleveland circle in a long time. The last I was there when the green line trolleys were still using Boeing LRVs. Is the showcase cinemas still open down there?

No idea - I moved from there in August of 88 and have been in CT for 25 years. I did just check out Google Earth and it looks like CITYSIDE is still there - I bought a lot of drinks in that place!

It's great to know there are some local firebird owners here. I recently purchased a 1982 Firebird. I just had the transmission rebuilt. The motor was replaced w a Jasper 350 and then the owner lost her license. From what I was told, this motor has under 10k miles... did i mention this is a one owner car.
I previously owned a 1985 Monte Carlo SS, I had it from 18 yrs old to about 26. That was a fun car but the body needed more work than I could afford. In the end, I sold the monte for $1,200, and purchased this firebird for $2k. not bad for an additional $800 and no body rot.
I am in need of some parts, I wonder if the locals can help. Off the top of my head I need a headliner (ttop) seatbelts (black or red) and bumper grills.
here is a link to mass cruisers. they host the car show in the bass pro shop parking lot every other thursday. After some research, they do have a membership cost of $80 per yr. http://clubs.hemmings.com/masscruisers/
I was wondering how you mount your front license plate? As you may have noticed mine is currently mounted to my broken bumper grill; this is temporary. In mass, when you have plates with red letters you must mount the front plate. In the past I have been pulled over for not having this plate mounted. I would like to avoid being pulled over at all costs; not only is it a pain in the a$$, and a waste of my time, but in general I don't want to be bothered. I am ordering a license plate bumper mounting bracket. Where on the bumper is your plate located? In the center, or off to a side? I've even heard of people leaving it on the dash.
Mars2878 - Thank you for the website, I've already found parts cheaper than other places.

what mods do you have on your jasper 350 and are they worth it ?
I have done nothing extra to the car other than fix what needs to be fixed to keep it going. I wasn't given a huge amount of detail on the motor. This car obviously came with a 305, it was driven for about 200k on the original motor. The owner decided to get the Jasper 350, and I was told it puts out 400 hp. But I suspect it is alittle less. Not long after the motor was replaced the owner lost her license due to tickets etc. And then it sat. It was sold to a family friend who never even registered it. He paid $4k, and sold it to me for $2k. Im glad I got it for this price as I had to rebuild the transmission which cost almost the same.
It has a edlebrock carb, accel dist+wires and long tube headers. It sounds great, nice and deep at idle, real loud when you put the pedal to the metal. I had an inspector try to tell me it could be too loud and "they" don't like exhaust louder than stock. Since he even bothered to mention that, he did not get my business. haha.
I am going to see if there are any tags on the block. If I manage to pull a number off of it, I'm sure the folks over at Jasper Engines can figure out what it has, or what it puts out.
I need to see if the guy I bought it from can dig up some paperwork. I file all paper work to my cars to maintain proper records. But I do not plan on selling this car.

Anyone considering going to the next Patriot Place Thursday night car show?
It's usually every other week. Pretty sure this is an off week.
When I go I am usually one of the very few third gen Firebirds and only 3rd gen Formula to be there. It's be nice to have some company....
My 83 TA is currently undergoing an engine swap. I'll post when I'm heading to Patriot Place again. Although, it might be in my 87 Aerocoupe if the TA isn't ready yet.

I would love to show my car there, It definitely won't be the nicest car. but a 3rd gen firebird regardless. My issue is, you need to buy a membership to mass cruisers in order to show your car; they sell a membership for a year for $80. and half yr($40) starts in July through November. In my case, my car is only registered for the spring, summer and fall. Maybe I'll scratch up the cash some year, but not this year. Unfortunately, If I go, my car will be in the visitor lot.
HEY, Mass cruisers, give out some free passes so you can have some more third gens!

Really? I never knew there was a fee. I've always just shown up and parked at these events. I haven't gone in 2015, are there new rules?
