Upgrade from 3rd to 4th gen

I sold my thirdgen firebird late last year and am now looking to buy a 4th gen. Anyone know of any forum similar to this please as this one proved very useful when working on the car?

Thanks

Ah man, its no further forward than before matey. I started a business 17 months ago and its consumed all my time. Thats pretty much the reason I got the 92 one, I do drive it often so I suppose thats 1 good thing. If anyone wants any advice on doin a major project my advice is dont unless you have tons of time on your hands ie sell the wife and kids etc Seriously though Im hoping to get a garage this year and will press on with it.

Regards Neil

Mate- time is my major challenge these days too! Even if I still had my IROC I don't know when I would ever get the chance to drive it

A lot to be said for a turnkey classic. The ZZ4 made the IROC more of a special occasional car. Some ways I should have just kept te trusty LG4. It still sounded great.

Hope to see your '92 at one of the shows.

Peace.

I'm not here that much anymore, i sold the 3rd gen, it was taking up more time than i have [i work on cars 24\7 as is]
I looked for a good fourth gen camaro or t\a, all i found was rust, [on the Bauer Millet uk supplied camaro's anyway] ot t\a's that were manual, i really want auto or they were just too expensive.
So i bought a 95 Mustang GT 5.0, fully loaded from Japan, its needed a few small bits, plus servicing, its got no rust, and only a few scratches.
Hopefully one day i can find a decent 4th gen at reasonable money before i get too attached to the pony car.
