Welcome to the boards Bigfoot

 

I know this is not the classifieds but I was woundering if anyone out in MN had a posi rear end the would like to sell? I need one and I really dont want to pay shipping.
email me if you have one grover85@yahoo.com

 

Check out http://www.car-parts.com You can search in just MN and by car model and year. If you are looking for a new rear end, now would be the time to swap to a 4th gen rear. Get your posi and disk brakes at teh same time.

 

I looked there and didnt realy find what I wanted. Thats why I wanted to see if any one on the board had one. Thanks anyways.

 

i have a feeling this threads going to be here for along time

 

I think that we should start a new one just cause this one is getting long...but we are on the 3rd. page so it loads faster but when u get up to 45 responces on a page it takes forever to load...lol oh well I love this thread!!!:hail:

My Camaro is going over there wednesday!!

 

I forgot...we are in Lakeville 1/2 hour south of the cities

 

I did the 4th gen rear swap last summer. I got posi, disc brakes, amd 3.23 gears (up from my old 3.08). Then I got ZR1/SS wheels.
Make sure if you do that to get the longer e-brake cables for a 3rd gen, not the shorter ones.

ttt...hey did u all fall off the face of MN or what.. where'd everyon go... hey hows that web site comin along????

Rise and shine

 

I am gonna be back in a week or so from Iowa. I need to find a place to get my car painted, or at the least a paint box where I can do it myself. I have all the compressor and an HVLP gun, but no space.

 

hang plastic in your garage to make a makeshift booth.. Painting should only take about an hour and a half... Thats what Id do

 

I went to John's Auto this weekend, they have about 7 4th gens and 1 '92 third gen. No good parts through. If anybody was woundering.

-Adam

 

where is johns auto located at and in what city im looking for a 98-02 maro or bird for a parts car for my 3rd gen

 

It is in blaine (are just north of) on hwy 65. I dont think there were any 98-02, I think they were all 93-97.

 

ok thx ill ook up his number and give him a call

 

ya i was just up there JAWS... they dont really got much 5 - 8 f-bodys ...2 are 3rd gens 90 to 92? ever things picked over

 

your opinion please...I live in Andover. found 3.42 rear, posi, disc (complete w/ caliper) $350...seems steep to me, but dang, it took a while to find.

 

When I got my 4th gen rear it cost me about that. I got the rear end and calipers used, and rotors new. I found mine in about 10 minutes of calling from the yellow pages.

Are you getting a 4th gen rear or a 3rd gen rear??

 

third gen...currently running 373's with stock (for the most part) 305 tpi. theyr'e a little steep for the stock motor

 

Where in andover are you, I use to live up there, I lived on the west side on round lake blv. right by sunny lane park.

 

just north of bunker hills park, east of hanson blvd

 

jaws... when you swapped out your rear, did you bother with the proportion valve?

 

Ya, My rear went from drum to disk, so I got a 3rd gen read disk valve.

 

Where is everyone? What is goin on? You get your car fixed yet NeedForSpeed? I am starting on the body work in about 4 hours, hopefully my car won't be down for too long...along with the body work I am gonna remove the badging and fill it in so it is smooth. Then it is time to paint!!!! I can't wait for it to be done!

 

just wanted to shout out to all the third gen owners/lovers in the area.

I just moved To Richfield from San Diego, back in November and drove my camaro all winter.

I have a Red/silver 84 Z28, 305 HO, AT, AC, PS, All power, with No rust whatsoever (first time out of CA). I picked it up a couple of years ago for $900. The interior is Immaculate, There's not one crack on the dash, everything is original.

In the next couple months i will be intalling a 350, t-56 tranny, Mid ninety's firebird style "nostril" hood, probably a weiand 142 supercharger, and of course ditching the stupid CA emissions crap.

If there are any events, i would love to know about them.

 

what ever you do man get a beater car for the winter. rear wheel drive really sucks in winter conditions and not to mention the salt on the roads here in mn. the salt will eat your car alive. if your car is as clean as you say then whatever you do get a winter beater or your camaro will look like a winter beater in no time.

 

:sillylol: :sillylol:


This is a must or your car will not be your pride and joy any more...anyway as for events goin down the car craft summer nationals are here at the state fair grounds. Also Lakeville has a yearly car show/ crusie night at the beginning of july let me know if ur interested. welcome aborad

 

as far as shows go the state fair grounds will have 2 comming up.one in mid june I think called back to the 50's and in july I think the best show of the year the Car Craft show Nationals and that will be July 18th-20th. if you love pure muscle (or pro streets) go to the Car Craft show, if you love retored cars pre 63 i think then go to back to the 50's, most of these cars are pretty mild as far as a street machine or at least they were the last time I went to it.

 

Waseca,down by Mankato,here

 

transam84 back to the 50's is for pre 64 cars but a pretty good guess

 

Shado and Jigglypuff, I just want to say HI!,and welcome to the site. I hope you find this place as fun as I do.:rockon: :hail:

 

I love this board :rockon: Ive learned alot in the short time ive been here and everyone is really friendly and very helpful

 

does anybody know someone parting out a 82-84 camaro?
some idiot decided to kick out my passenger side taillight...
so much for my car being 100% original.

Thanks for the info everyone, hope to see some of you at the cruise nights, or shows.

this thread rocks!!!

 

I have a right side tail light if you would like it. Its the style that hs the single stripe go through it. perfect condition make an offer, what its worth to you is what it basically is worth to me. welcome aboard

 

It would be nice if all us 3rdgen members from MN would get together for a BBQ some time this summer

 

Ok who has a big yard to stuff all of us into....

You know I think I might be the youngest one in this Thread at 18 maybe not but close.

But Yea I'm all for the BBQ!!! Count me in

 

I could definitly go for a BBQ! Why not just do it at White Bear Lake, that is big enough, and if I recall you don't have to reserve the parks at all and there are a bunch to choose from.

 

Sunny Lane park? I think you mean Sunny Acres, but of course, the main parking lot for the park is on sunny lane. Not being nitpicky, I just live like 2 blocks from the place

 

I think myself and some of the other MNFBC third gen owners would be down for that.... Depends on when (date-wise) for me though as I have some training to do this summer .

 

Jiggly and Shado, I've got some parts to get rid of....call me at 952-887-2931, I can help you out.

 

So what's the word on the BBQ?

and Matt, when is the next MNFBC meeting? Once I finnally get the car to where I want it seen I would like to attend.

 

I seen the MNFbody club out at elko speedway last sat. BTW those were some sweet cars. I was sittin in the pits workin on our race car and I saw 2 third gens go swingin by...very cool anyway...

 

I'm in Ironton. By Brainerd.

 

I'm from Ironton, MN. It's by Brainerd. woah echo
