I see a $hit ton of 3rd gens around the tri-cities.......Any of them yours? ie "Roll Call" - did I really just say that?

 

I've got an '86 IROC, black, 305 TPI. Don't drive it as much as I used to but I still like to get it out when it's warm enough to take the t-tops out.

I'm getting too old to enjoy really running it hard (last time I had it up to 120 or so on the interstate messing with a BMW 740i the little voice in the back of my head kept telling me to slow down) anymore but I still get a kick out of messing with the high dollar foreign cars on the ramps.

I keep saying I'm going to build an engine for my other '86 IROC (red) but I always find something else to spend my money on.

 

Howdy. I have a black 89 Formula. It's my fun car so you'll only see me on the weekends or some sunny afternoons. My plate is "NOT KITT" 'cause I'm sick of the comparison. I'm around the Chesterfield airport area.

I usually wave at any 3rd gen I see, like seeing distant family members.

I'm in Mechanicsville. I have a 89 flame red, tan top, GTA Vert. I haven't driven it in years though. Ive been getting the itch to put it back on the road, so you might see me around.

 

Anyone recall seeing a black IROC with Ontario plates around Midlothian? I get to Fredericksburg once a year at the end of May and have been around the Richmond area a couple of times. Shopping for a Camaro actually. ( Anyone know a big guy named Peanut?) It would be cool to meet with some 3rd gen folks when I'm there this year.

 

I'm off rt 10 just inside city limits of Richmond. With a black '89 IROC-Z convertible, but it's been off the road since '06. Working on getting it back on the road.

 

Good hear form you guys. You got to get those ride back on the road. The GTA vert is pretty rare. You got drive that thing!! You guys know any good paint and body shops around our neck of the woods?

Hi all! I'm new to the forum. I just bought a 92 RS vert and am looking forward to doing some minor and major fixes to it although it's in decent shape. I'm in Brandermill on the south side of Richmond. Anyone want to come over and help me do some wrenching? Just kidding but I'm sure I'll be looking for some advice and tapping into your expertise as time goes on.

 

I am in Chester, just off 95. Welcome!

Smitty

 

Dude I used to live in Brandermill.......Im still real close, right off Genito in Great Oaks Holla some time......Might hafta get together a WaWa.....When I was into the tuner scene, we used to meet up at the Whistle stop in Chester right off 288.........Good times.....and Im Always up 4 a wrenchin session .....as soon as the weather warms a bit......

 

10-4 on the weather. I have a garage but my other Camaro is setting in there. Hey, ya want to get together and wrench I'll be glad to have you over. Right now I have the entire cooling system pulled out. I have the new parts to go back in but this damn snow is killing my repair time. Let me know if you want to hook up.

 

I live in Mechanicsville. 91 z 28, 305 (for now), auto. Getting ready to go to the body shop for new paint. Hope to swap to a 350 tpi crate motor sometime this year. Also would like to take it down to Va International Raceway this year. Anybody done that yet?

 

I'm from Dinwiddie but I'm always in the Midlothian area my z28 is Black Sapphire Blue with a Sliver lip

 

I'll be near Fredericksburg for a week from the 8th to the 15th.
Looking for a cruise night (even as far as Richmond).
What I'm really looking for is a quality dealer for a pair of new rear tires. I'd like to get a couple of Fuzion ZRi (245/50/16) so as to keep a matching set.
Anyone have any suggestions as to a reputable dealer?
Thanks.

 

I'm outside Mechanicsville in King and Queen County, the area is called St. Stephens Church. There are a couple nice third gens around here...

 

I live in eastern Richmond right off 64. I work near Hull and Chippenham beside the Raceway gas station and my Z28 is usually out there.

 

I know this post was a long time ago but this guy peanut does he drive a tow truck and have a bad s10? Or had?

 

The tow truck is a possibility. When I picked up my coupe a few years back, it was in a towing company's impound lot and "Peanut" worked out of their office. He was a BIG guy.
I can't speak for an S-10 though. He seemed a little on the large side for a compact truck.

 

I think we may be talking about the same guy. really big guy and bald. I wanna say its edwards towing maybe. Super super nice guy. I talked to him alot a while back at the track and when he towed cars to my shop. His S10 is a 406 SBC and i think runs low 11s or high 10s. It moves out. I havnt seen him in about a year or so.

 

Well, if you ever see him again, ask him if his brother sold a Gunmetal gray Sport Coupe to a guy from Canada. That would have been three years ago.
It's on the road and running mid 12's. I drive it to Virginia every year (Fredericksburg area).

 

Ok will do. What time of year do you come down here. Im only 25 min south of fburg right off I95. Im always up to meeting new TGO people.

 

Every May. I usually send a shout out around then to see if something's going on.

 

sure is alot of third gens off rt 10. i rarely see them tho. im right near 288. grey 91 gta

 

Jamie D., you live RIGHT around the corner from me. I try and make as much noise as I can when I drive by your house. You sure do have a lot of pickups!

\m/ Eric \m/

 

Eric do you have that spotless black formula? I've talked to you a few times, at advance abdand at the meet right up the street at the golf place. Haha yeah a few trucks. Ram and 4runner mine, wrangler my gfs, and 87 chevy my old roommates

 

Yeah man, that's me. Got the car up on stands and the gas tank sitting on the floor. Think I may have gotten a faulty pump, working thru that w/ Walbro.

On a side note, my girlfriend saw a clean black TA with gold wheels around Martin's on Saturday, anybody know who that might be (since we are a rare breed..)?

 

that sucks about the pump. a buddy of mine helped me tune the carb on mine and its running 100% better. i had a branch hit the quarter panel in the hurricane, lucky its only the side of a baseball. still needs painted anyway. i moved here about a year ago, i love the area, only seen your car once or twice tho. did you ever see a green 91/92 350/auto gta running around this area? i had it then sold it to my friend that lives down the street, but he sold it too. ive seen it on craigslist since then

 

I remember that guy from the sports park car shows. I saw him driving the 3rd gen for a short while and then he started driving a 4th gen of the same color. He & I used to get on 288 at the some time in the morning; I'd try and keep up but my Honda just wasn't having any of that.

If you have any vehicular emergencies and you need a covered work space, I have a two-car garage and a couple helping hands. I'm down the road in the Brentwood subdivision.

 

I'm in Culpeper, about 45 mins west of Fredricksburg.. working on getting my 91Z running. Going to start a Virginia Z28 club, maybe have some get togethers.. I'm planning on doing a cruise to somewhere like Cumberland, MD.. the drive is awesome. Start off in Fredricksburg, go to Madison, then over the mountain then over to 211 then over the next mountain over to 81 then north to I-70 then over to Cumberland and spend the night then come back the next day... it's a beautiful drive.

Stone Northeastern Z28 Car Club 3G

 

I used to drive across 211 from Warrenton to I81 every couple of weeks back in the mid 70's. Beautiful drive and always fun. Another fun stretch of road (but farther away) was the section of old Rt. 60 between Lexington and Clifton Forge, VA. Sometimes I get off I81 onto Rt. 11 north of Lexington, then at Vesuvius I take a right onto (darn, just went brain dead and can't remember the Rt. number....56 east maybe???) and go up the mountain to the parkway and drive it up to I 64 on top of Afton Mountain. Driving Rt. 60 from Richmond to Lexington is fun, too.

 

King William County. Used to meet with MAFBA years ago but nothing lately. Pictures at http://www.cardomain.com/ride/245776...ntiac-trans-am

 

I'm starting to wonder if there are any other Z28 or IROC in Hopewell where I'm living at now

 

Hi, there are a few of us. ScottyRock is in Cattlet (outside of Manassas) and i'm in Culpeper. We are planning on starting a club soon, do some road trips and basically hang out or maybe work on our cars.

Hey does anyone here know of a White RS with Black rims in Chesterfield???? I saw the car in the parking lot where I work and want to know if i know you besides our 3rd gens were the only two in the parking lot!!! LOL

 

I say we should try to get a group together and cruise to the beach

 

I'm currently in Norfolk but i have family in Richmond. But my car is in CT until next year =/
