Detroit, MI Thirdgens
Hey guys.
I looked and didn't find an active role call for the Detroit Area/MI Thirdgens.
I know there are a few of them around, I was just wondering how many.
Just wondering what city your in year and Make.
I figured this can help us also if we need/sell parts.
I think it would be awesome to get a bunch of us together for a cruise as well..Thanks for looking and posting.
If you are from anywhere in Michigan please feel free to post as well...

1987 Sport Coupe.
Mods in the sig..just rolled over 34,000 miles.
Looking to build it up soon...383 and T-56 swap and a 12 bolt

lol... it's a joke.
i collect 91-92 camaros myself. you'll find a few of us in mt.clemens on wednesday nights for the crusie night when it warms up. wild woody's on gratiot on sundays in the summer.
camaro superfest is coming up the end of june which is in ypsilanti/ann arbor every year where you'll find plenty of thirdgens and newly returning is the f-body show at the tech center on 12 and dequindre this august.
there are not alot of active thirdgen michigan members here unfortunately, in fact there are maybe 10-12 tops on alot of the boards but they are around. most have gotten older and gave up on message boards.
i just get bored..

I just got mine, She's tired and I'm poor. (shouldn't have even bought it.) So I'm gonna be real easy on her this year.
Next year might just be a different story though.

It's been a want of mine for almost 20 years, (ever since Dad brought home his 86 z) I think I'll hold on to it for a good long while. But if I see any around I'll keep you in mind. Thread Starter

What the heck it takes about the same time to get to Detroit from the West Side of the state depending on where you are...
I love T-Types by the way
Alot more stealth, everyone know the all Black GN's!!

I'm actually in Flint for school right now, but I grew up in Southwest. I'm still down there on a regular basis. When I got my driver's license I spent countless hours in Garden City Park. But then that was many moons ago. My favorite chinese joint is on Cherry hill and Wayne.

Do you have a manual trans center console or fog lights??
I know there's more I need, but I'm getting tired now and can't think.

I know I'm looking forward to cruising. I will try to drive this camaro as much as I can this summer. My goal is to make it my summer(fair weather) daily driver to get some use out of it. Im going to keep an eye on the board for some cruises that I could attend.
