Same. we all be jealous of you...LOL when you have youth you have it all. Funny as we all get older we have more $$ that we wish we had back then. if we knew then what we know now and had what we have now life would be grand. Just a little philosophy lol.
Cruisin the coast with the wife this week. We had a ball! Got to talk with a guy with one them TTAs like you got Bob, goes by Banshee on here I think. Also chatted with "Uncle Tom", great guy!
Holy Crap Eric! Are you out of high school yet? Seriously, I pictured you older!
LOL!! I'm 35 but I love these cars just as much as those who are a little older!
Here is one with one of my old cars when I was in high school though haha! 20 years ago, winter 1995.. and I think I weighed 130lbs then soaking wet. Check out that stylish hat!
The first photo is my buddy and i with our brand new 1991 camaros in november of 1990. Mine was the teal one. The other photo is my ugly *** on my 18th birthday in 1988 with my first car! My 1982 LG4 Z28!
Its cool. I get told all the time I dont look like almost 50! LOL
I feel it though.. Its great to see us guys young with a 3rd gen and old with a thirdgen. One of my fondest memories is seeing my ordered TA just off the truck and knowing I would be driving it the next evening after prep!
The first picture is me with my first car. It was an 85 tpi car, and I think the picture was taken in 99 or 00. The second pic is my 89 GTA with an LT1. I recently got it on the road and I guess I never thought to get a picture of it with me in it....
Hey theres my buddy Arnold!! Looking good my friend!!
Mike, the south Texas 100 degree summer heat was especially unforgiving that day....my 50 year old butt was ready to pass out! Right up to the point where they announced that I had won, suddenly I perked up!
Looks lowered? nice color. used to see that year/color/model a lot back in the day. very popular and sharp.
Since the "old" theme has been brought up already in this thread I guess that I will not be too outa place spilling that photo actually was from "back in the day" hahahaha......June 1987 at the Street Machine Nats in Du quoin Il
WOW! Thanks! I'm actually sitting here right now trying to figure out how to make my pics larger. How do you do that? I've been searching but can't find it.

First you need to upload your photos to a photo sharing website like Photobucket, Flickr, etc. I use Photobucket which is free and easy to use. Once you have your photos uploaded to the photo sharing website, look for a settings button on each photo, or right click and look for the IMG Code. This is basically the link for your photo that you can paste into your post at Thirdgen.org.
At this point you want to open another window in your web browser and go to the thread where you want to post your photos. Then click back to your photo sharing web page, right click "copy" on the IMG code, and then go back to the Thirdgen.org web page and right click "paste" into your open thread reply. At this point you should see the link which may look like a bunch of letters and numbers. Press the "preview post" button below the reply box and you should now see your image.

Found some older shots this morning from GM Nationals 2014. I was talking to this group who were asking a ton of questions about my car after I won 3rd place.
And these are from GM Nationals 2015 in the 30th Anniversary IROC-Z display. I got my dash signed by Jerry Palmer, and a picture with him and my son.
