What an amazing collection! Awesome pics. Good to see the Player's cars too. ...and everytime I see that Detroit Speed car, I LOVE it....then cringe at the Hawk's spoiler!!! Bleh. Love the verts. The hardtops. The stockers, and LS swaps......what a great collection.
Out of curiousity, is there a list somewhere of all the featured cars?

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
Thanks for posting the pictures. Don't see a collection of third gens like this everyday, or ever. Noted the burgandy Camaro with "****** Militia" on the front nose, LOL.

Wow! Probably not ever going to see a better-looking group of 3rd gens anywhere else. Some really nice-looking cars.

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
The event staff let me buy one of the banners hanging in the featured thirdgen building. I forgot to take a pic but it was the one that had a picture of a fender vent and TRANS AM lettering on it. The banner was only $75 shipped to my house. Should get it later this week. Pretty cool item for the garage.

Only bummer was we noticef at gas stop in Knoxville that someone stole my front Texas Classic car license plate last night at the fairgrounds and had the ***** to put the screws back on. WTF.

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
Here's my pics of the event. I didnt get a chance to take photos of every third gen there but i snapped a little over 40 photos while going to different events and meeting some people from tgo and facebook as well as new thirdgen owners. I have video of all the showcase cars in building T and the first 5 photos is Bruce's competition Hawk with 62 miles.

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
Thanks for taking pictures of my yellow formula, I oddly didn't take many. To busy looking at cars and talking I guess

What an amazing collection! Awesome pics. Good to see the Player's cars too. ...and everytime I see that Detroit Speed car, I LOVE it....then cringe at the Hawk's spoiler!!! Bleh. Love the verts. The hardtops. The stockers, and LS swaps......what a great collection.
Out of curiousity, is there a list somewhere of all the featured cars?

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
I too thank you folks for the pics! As mentioned above, I didn't take many pics either for looking and talking. Was really cool to see so many 3rd Gens together - I haven't seen more than 5 together at once since I attended the 2010 F-Body Gathering in Atlanta. It makes it easier to see differences and similarities between different years, packages, and RPO's. It's also great seeing the challenging and artistic "tricks" that we all use to get the result we desire. And I always love to see the little personal touches that each owner has in their car.
A special thanks to topduarte -
1) for bringing his car that far - it was a long drive to me from NC, and TX is over twice as far!
2) for catching my car in his outside pics, post #16, pic 7 teal 1992 RS - his pic is better than my own!

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
The '91 RS with the Indy logo was used for Indy 500 festivities and driver introduction during the race that year. That's why it has the same graphics as the Beretta. The Beretta Pace Car was a modified Beretta made into a convertible, but they didn't make enough verts for driver introduction/festival activities.

Re: Sneak peak of featured 3rd gens
I heard but I dont remember who deserves credit for the rounding up all those owners. Lot of time spent no doubt.
