Guess there isn't much activity in Southern PA anymore? There is a meet-up at the Abandoned PA Turnpike near Breezewood April 15th. So far it looks like alot of tuners, but maybe we could get a nice showing of American muscle?
Checking in from Philly after a LONG hiatus. Just got my hands on an '86 Trans Am as an early birthday present.
Always buy cars in the dark Met a friend at Advance Auto Parts Meeting younger sibling for the first time. Sneezed off one of the front vent covers on the way home.
Drove her back from upstate NJ to Philly on Sunday. This old gal needs a LOT of work, but the motor is sound, interior is fairly clean, and the t-tops don't leak. I'll have to split project time between the new Trans Am and the Solstice, but it's worth it for my dream garage.
Very nice. I bought mine in Philly last year, but it was a NJ car also. I recently had the front end painted and 8 license plate holes in the nose were filled n hidden forever lol.

That paint job is looking sweet! Mine is going to need a similar treatment at some point, but i'll probably hold off until next spring. I've got enough little projects to keep me going for a bit, and I want to fix enough to hit a couple of fall car cruises, even if it's still a bit faded.
Edit: I just counted again....8 licence plate holes? Good god, how many plates did they mount to the poor car? I'm glad you rescued it from that horrid front-plate state!
Thank you. Alot more paint work still needs to be done. Good luck with yours.
Edit: 4 holes for a plate , and 4 additional i assume were drilled later on for a factory plate holder
Nice Berlinetta! There is an 84 on Facebook marketplace that's in NJ. If it would have been closer I would have looked at it before I got my TA. I prefer the TA but that Berlinetta is nice and looks almost identical to yours except it has T-tops. You've got a nice, clean looking car there.
Checking in from pittsburgh. Just picked up this 89, origional, 45k miles. First time purchasing a 3rd gen. Always wanted one. My plates cant get here fast enough!
Well, the 7th Annual Camp Cadet Cruise-In at Stoystown Auto Sales yesterday was a nice one. Probably around 250 cars there. Not a whole lot of 3rd gens but there were some. I don't know if anyone on here was there but here's pictures of the ones that were there.
Looks like a great turnout Gold. I was at a family camping trip other wise would have been there. Next Sunday is the final cruise-in at Valley Dairy on Scalp Ave, also there is one at the J-town Humane society by Home Depot 12-4 and Summit Diner from 1-4. My daughter wanted to go to both so I have no idea which one we will hit yet.
BTW - The teal Z28 belongs to a buddy of mine - Doug, he is at most of the shows in the area. And Larry owns the blue IROC next to him, who I just met recently. Hopefully I can meet up with you next weekend.
No, I didn't make it. Had a wedding on Saturday and was entertaining friends on Sunday so didn't get there. Maybe the one this month if the weather cooperates.
So it gave me the idea to do something like that in PA. Maybe the Sunday after the Saturday car show for Chevy Nationals in Carlisle? If there is enough interest I will start a new thread. What do y'all think?
I'm a new member, in the Philly suburbs. I joined because I'm actively looking for a 3rd gen Z28 right now, and have seen a few in the classifieds here that interest me. As a new member, I don't have access to PMs... Which is why I'm posting here! It's difficult to communicate with sellers here without being able to PM. Not having a car yet, I really have no need to post in any of the tech forums, and this board doesn't seem to have a "new member" area to post introductions. Sorry about a "fluff" post here, but I think I need a few posts to have PMs turned on for me! I'm super active on forums around stuff I already have (like hdforums.net), so I'm very familiar with this kind of interaction. As far as my Camaro history goes, I've owned a '69, a '70, and a '73. But it's been decades since I've had one (I've had some Chevy trucks, Italian cars, and a bunch of bikes in the mean time). A few months ago I decided it's time to start looking at these!
Welcome and where in philly burbs. I am located in Downingtown
Thanks!
I'm in East Norriton, right off 202. I'm down in your direction pretty regularly, as my company has a location in Chester Springs (as well as West Chester, Wynnewood, and Conshy).
