Anyone from central Illinois?

I'm back to the game (again...3rd times the charm right?) with probably my nicest third gen...A 91 Formula 305/t5 3.42 TTop car that minus the fading paint is pretty mint! Anyways...just seeing who wants to get together, hang out, and work on some cars over the winter. Shoot me a text at 309-6211722!

Re: Anyone from central Illinois?

Thanks but the car will probably need a repaint or the top portion redone as it's sun faded

South Pekin here. I own an original 87 Formula which will some day get back on the road. There are a number of 3rd Gens in the Pekin area, some driven daily, others I see parked all over. Be nice to get some people together to talk Pontiacs! Also, there are a lot of cruises going on starting in about March. I take a lot of pics of all cars looking for ideas and creativity. I also post them on FB sites like Pontiac Pickers and others. Home phone is 348-4413. I need the motivation to get my car going again, maybe some group compassion will make it start...

Hasn't been on the road in 15 years, too much wrong with it after 223,000 miles. I post under the name of "sgtmac".
