Re: Gulf Coast 3rd Gens

ok guys, im going to call demans85 soon, he tried to call me last night but my neighbor is in the hospital and i was visiting so i didnt have my phone on me, but anyway im going to ask him what day is better for him, im thinking more about sunday depending on when the game starts and ends on saturday as i want to watch the game and im sure my friend that has a 3rd thats coming with me will be watching the game also, since its on a sunday we may do it a little early than once thought, lets see what uncletom has to say, it seem that most of us are up for anytime, looks like we have dmans85, navyCM, my friend, and me so far, 4 is better than none, plus we can get a chace to get to know each other better over a good holiday dinner, be able to figure out other good ideas for meets that will work with everyone, maybe making one FAR in advance to people can adjust there time to make it.

Re: Gulf Coast 3rd Gens

Its all good y'all. There were just more oysters for me on the last scheduled meet. Look forward to next meetup whenever it may be. Will have to be next year as the rest of Dec is full enough for me.

Everyone have a blessed and safe holiday season.

PS, can somebody quick tell me if the square cutout in the rear headlight assembly faces down or up (down I imagine, but I'd rather look stupid for asking)

Re: Gulf Coast 3rd Gens

I`m still around and interested uncle tom.Your right,this time of year is tough,with work and family obligations.Worse than that I`m fixin to start working a shutdown right before or right after x-mas.12 hours a day 7 days a week for 6 to 8 weeks.It sucks,but can you say....overtime.I will make it to some events.Stuffs just been fubar`ed lately.Got my car running right,but trans has me a little worried now.I knew it wouldnt last forever behind new engine.Maybe get a probuilt kit installed with stall and cooler after this O.T.

Re: Gulf Coast 3rd Gens

im fixin to get a price quote on making decals for the back window that say,


GULF COAST THIRD GEN'S
WWW.THIRDGEN.ORG
i have been told i can get a multi decal discount, its a high quality white vinyl, its used in comercial uses like for DOT, MC, etc numbers on tractor trailers and lettering for like company trucks, i belive its a 8 year vinyl in 100% outdoor conditions. can do any color, chrome letters are for indoor use so i would advise not going with chrome, and i will get a better price if i stick with white, so far i got me and a friend that want them, if i can get a number of how many people want them i will get a price quote based on that number and pass the price along

Re: Gulf Coast 3rd Gens

oh there is no pic just text of how it will look, im sure in will be under 25, i think it was $13 for just the www.thirdgen.org , but not sure about adding more, it go by ft, and since the gulf coast third gens will be above the www.thirdgen.org i would think that it would still fall under the "X" amount of feet, and btw we are making it to fit between the plastic bolt caps that are on the top of your back glass (two on each side) on your hatch, that will make Gulf Coast Third Gens aprox 21-22 inchs long, and the www.thirdgen.orgwill be centered under that.... i will get a price and MAYBE get mine done over the weekend, get the guy to store the design on a disk so i dont have to pay again to re-design it, but i will get a price to cut 6 of them and then divide the price up and tell yall what it will set each of us back.

once again the cards to put on windshields, i will work on when i get some time, i dont have a card program on this new computer so it will take awhile but it is in the works, just going with a camaro symbol and a t/a symbol then the "gulf coast third gens", the web site, with a description of the web site like "TGO offers outstanding advice and support for third gen owners" and im puting my contact number just incase the person has no net at home.

BTW Brian, i beet you are missing your car LOL, o well it will be worth it when they are done i guess....on the black plastic part that your headlights mount in all i can tell you is there is a rectangle hole that the plastic part that holds the aim screw for the up and down aim on your headlight, that goes on top, there is a round hole in the back that looks like its the size of a quarter (give or take) that is on the bottom and on the back, i hope that helps
