Re: IL people where you at?
I'll have to pass on a big show like that...... My car is pretty much a stock six with some slight mods and a pretty decent rattle can job.... its needs a lot more work to be show worthy

Half the cars there are projects. It is to meet people and have fun. Your car is just fine

This year I went to a ton cruise-ins and shows and saw very few 3rd gens. I hope we can change that next year.

Give it 10 years.

Those who had them on their walls as posters, will finally have the money to really build them nice by then. So they'll get a revival. Prices on them will start to go up in the next 10 years anyways. Its already happening for clean examples.

I would much rather not wait 10 years and get local people on this board together next year like we are planning. Plenty of us in the Chicagoland area with 3rd gens already. Just need to organize some meet ups.
