BlackFormula

Mongoose

I heard you picked up a Formula to replace the IROC, I look forward to checking it out. I'm gonna try to make it out there this weekend but I won't have the car, it's being prepped for Auto Fair.

Hey man, been awhile. Replace the IROC... never. Sure its been off the road two years but Its back in action. Been working on a turbo setup for it. Its quite the beast now even more than before . I did pick up a 70 Camaro, in good shape but really jsut a driver at this point. Look forward to seeing ya again.

heres a dirty pic.

BlackFormula

hey man, thats right i have rejoined the bird family! formula needs some help, paint and what not, but its a better project than the roc, considering the issues with that car, plus i only got 50,000 miles on the bird :-) PM me

lock

doh, who you talkin to Glen.... not me obviously . I may run up there tomorrow if I can. getting a delivery tomorrow so that may mess things up.

Mongoose

Glen's not in this thread, just Chris (BlackFormula) and Mike(Mongoose) and you. Glen shows up at the cruise on a regular basis. Patrick was telling me about your new ride last weekend while we were working on his RS, sounds like a pretty good starting point.

lock

getting screen names goofed up. everyone needs simple ones like mine

BlackFormula

hahaha i figured he would, he was disappointed that i made the switch....oh well. yea its a good spot to start, clearcoat is a little faded, got a few dents to bang out, and the seats are pretty tore up, but considering the car sat for years without going anywhere...outside..i expected as much. but it runs good, strong, and clean :-) ill see you at sonic :-p

BLAK MGK

That's ok Mark. I am still around though.

Glen

Well I didnt get a chance to drop in but I did drive by on one of my errands. Have a question, I saw an yellow with maybe white Elcamino there. Is he part of the club? I swear I saw that car in my neighborhood about an hour earlier. Would like to meet him if he lives near me.

BlackFormula

ive never seen him before, so im gonna say hes not an active club member. but it is a real ncie ride, its got 3 dueces under the hood ;-) nice car for sure.

Mongoose

The cruise in is open to anyone/any cars, we're just the hosts.

lock

It looked good and sure sounded good. Almost like a gear drive in it too?

Ill catch up with you guys and hang out soon.

How can i join this

Is there a fee

BlackFormula

Easy way to do it is to come to a cruise in (the next one is this weekend, the 8th) and grab an application. there are memership dues for the club every year. the membership dues help us do the nice things we do throughout the year :-)

Firebat

If you guys have bad weather on the 8th, then would you postpone it to the 15th?

They're scheduled for the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month so if one is a wash out there's always the other weekend. The latest forecast I saw (last night) says it will be a clear day Saturday but windy and in the low 50s. We'll be handing out the passes for Auto Fair coming up April 3-6 so I'd be willing to bet they're will be some form of turn out. I'm planning to be there but I won't have my car (sorry Chris). Hope to catch you there.

BlackFormula

thats nothin new, i never see you drivin that car! :-p hahaha but hell if mine was that nice i prolly wouldnt drive it much either to tell you the truth. thats ok, i smoked a mustang on the way home the other weekend, and a 240SX here last week. (sssshhhhh, dont tell patrick! hahahaha)

Mongoose

Don't talk too much, last time I saw the IROC was September AF.

BlackFormula

hahaha yea well, between the 1 quart a day oil pan leak and the trans leak, and the exhaust issues and everything else, plus the VATS ignition crap, i really didnt wat to drive it anywhere hehe. so what, you have nothing better to do than sit on thirdgen on this rainy *** friday?

Mongoose

Been trying to sell off some spare parts. Gettin' ready to crash after a long night at work.
