Not a ThirdGen but still Camaro related, his was at the GM LGR Camaro 50th Celebration yesterday. I was the only IROC in the Show-N-Shine.
Best in show was. 92 B4C Utah State Trooper, complete with radar gun CB literally EVERYTHING that he troopers used everyday (sorry didn't get a pic)

Last weekend at the Ice Cream Heaven cruise in, Harrisburg PA. Shockingly, I was one of three third gens there!

Congratulations!
I'm giving some serious thought to checking this event out next year. It's not too far from home, looks like a lot of fun from the last couple of years of reports, and next year is the 50th anniv. of the Firebird.

Thanks Kymmee. We need to follow through with some discussion about creating dash plaques with 3rd Gen usernames, so we know who everyone is. It would be nice to put faces with the people we talk to on here.Originally Posted by kymmee

Dynodave43, There is nothing quite like spending a weekend with 400 car owners that are just as passionate about your car as you are. Bring your car no matter what shape it is in. The more cars in the show the better!Originally Posted by DynoDave43

If you look past the Delahaye, the green Fiat that just returned from Pebble Beach, and really look close, you'll see my 91 Camaro in the distance.

Fully agree. I think anyone who has a 'bird they love or just likes these cars, should try and attend this show. No matter what shape or look of your car, all 'birds are respected here. All great people and great cars to admire. Truly is a great time!!Originally Posted by live4formula

IMO, cars should USUALLY be displayed w/ the hoods and deck lids, closed. It totally obscures the visual effect of the car, when there open.

I agree but it is a cultural thing. I have seen many cars that I wish their hoods were closed. if I had a perfectly detailed under hood and lost to someone who had their hood closed but looked just as nice on the outside would I be upset? heck yeah I would.Originally Posted by mikeceli

There was a local car show in the park today, i took my red 83 Z28 and my friend James was parked next to me in his extra nice 85 IROC.
From the first meet i ever took the car. My power antenna broke that day too....

There was a marching band at the show and swap in St Peter, MN today. Found a pair of Buick Grand National Lear Siegler buckets. Need full resto as GN seats or as Camaro Camaro Camaro conversions, but the adjustment mechanisms and frames are fully functional. Also found a rough Z28 console to practice cutting a console clock hole.
I really need to get those Summer National stickers off the windshield. Looks tacky. White letter tires need to go, too.

Found this red 1987 with a very well done 403 and this 1982 with a real nice 350 at the local meet today. The 1987 made my jaw drop it was so nice, I had to wait around until he finally came back to his car. This sounded AWSOME with a 3.00" into a MAGNAFLOW dual exhaust, not loud at all but a super deep rumble.

Edit:'the 1986 has a 406CID not a 403CID....Lok at this engine bay from the 1987...
