Hey all, just me again checking to see if anyone needs a hand or if there are any get together's being planned. Have not had much time to work on the 91 due to selling this house and getting ready to move into the nest one, but winter is coming and I have the garage at the new house to play in. Talk to you all later.

I'm a little north of you. I'm in the process of rebuilding an 89 RS. Making it a touring car. Not sure if I need build help, but I'm always looking for parts. I am currently in search of a 90 degree bellhousing for an 11 inch clutch with the slave cylinder mounting brakets. Here's a link to what I've been doing. Thanks.

I'm in Elk Grove Village, 10 minutes from Ohare Airport. Anywho, why is it that we don't have more meets in IL? I know of Downers Grove at hooters on the 19th, and I'll probably be there, but why is it that we see get togethers once every three months? I don't see enough third gens by me. I've seen two in the past month. This eats.

VetteGal73

Just bought a 1989 Z-28 that has a few mods done to it. I'm in Des Plaines. I am moving at the end of the month so the car is still at the guy's house I bought it from. When I get her home I will list all the things that were modified. Any clubs in the area??
Thanks

i am right here is ottawa il wishing i could drive my gta but cant get help fixing it

cvz6977

Nice car, whats wrong with it? I'm in south elgin, probably about an hour and a half away.

cvz6977

I see a lot of third gens driving around out here in elgin, some are pretty nice. I have a couple of buddies that have third gens as well. I think some local area clubs or meets would be really welcome about now. I've been searching, but with little success. If you find something, give a shout, I'd be down for sure.

camaro_dan

its over heating and cant get it to stop .. i was wanting to plan a get together show /cruse here at a loco park before the weather turns bad but to look like i am going to make that happen

cvz6977

I'm sure you tried some of the more obvious possible solutions like the thermostat,hoses, heater core and water pump. Have you done any mods that could have created the issue? Are your heads and block flowing properly?

87_TA_GTA

hey might be a stupid emissions question, but today in my auto class someone said that i was lucky that i dont have to pass any sort of emissions test, and that only 94+ have to. is this true? i live in cook county. my cars an 87 Trans Am 350.

on another note, i wish there was more stuff going on north east of Chicago, seems everyone down south is having all the fun

novadk13

Yeah like 94 and older illinois doesnt require testing, if you do get a notice you have to test that final time then nothing after that. .. from what I understand I been in an emissionless county for 5 years now

ponttrans

ok all you il guys... especially from the north part of the state...my buddy who is a forth gen guy turned me onto this cruise and im gonna check it out. it looks awesome and a lot of fun, but it seems like a forthgen fest so ill be out in my project gta and i hope a lot of you will join me for this and represent the third gens! check it out...http://www.fallcruise.org/

I'm from Aurora IL as for the emissions question I heard that it was only obd2 cars which are 95 and newer

ilrs89

Dixon, IL, reporting in. Currently OUT of a 3rd gen, the RS was a MASSIVE fail. Huge holes in the floor, brakes completely shot, v6 backfired like crazy, overheating, as well as cosmetic issues to match. Ugh. But, it was only $200, and I ditched it before I began any real work (AKA any real spending.) I'm back on the boards because I ran into about $1800 cash that begs to be converted into a Firebird.

Fionnla

Hey Morris, hope all well down in the corn country. I'm here in Aurora, and have been going to a few Cruises and Shows here in the Fox Valley. Maybe the 3rd Gen's in northern part of Illinois can get together somewhere except Chicago next summer. I finally got my 85 Camaro going great for about a year now. There are a just few 3rd Gen's around here that are nice. Keep us posted if you come up with something.

theNMBR27

how bout downers grove? there are at least 4 cars shows a week out here

Fionnla

I've heard of some of the shows over there, but haven't got around to going. There are a couple of organizations that put on cruises and show around here during the summer weekly. I know one of them pretty well so I'll talk to him about what it takes to get a Camaro/Firebird get-together setup for next year. I'm not very good at organizing. Let you all know if I come up with anything. Maybe someone else in the area has a better Idea.
