Re: Facebook

Yeah I've been thinking this as well since Myspace has kinda phased out the last couple years, but I know some still use it.

If somebody wants to take the lead and start a Facebook Nor-Cal Third Gen group and give me the info, I'll sticky that too, or combine the threads.

I have both, but don't use frequently enough to desire maintaining.

Re: Facebook

Del, I started a Facebook page, but I am wondering if I could use the Thirdgen.org logo for the profile picture. Or do I need to use a generic pic of a Camaro or Firebird. Also I named it ThirdGen CamaroFirebird. It wouldn't let me use Norcal Thirdgen for whatever reason. So once I get a profile pic(s), I'll post the link.

Re: Facebook

Did you create just a user, or an actual Group?

It would be nice to have it Nor Cal specific otherwise it will get flooded with nationwide users who we won't interact with.

I would use the thirdgen.org logo, or one of our Nor-Cal logos and definitely include a link to our forums here:

Re: Facebook

Well I started it with just a user, but then I read your link how to do the group so I created a group. But now I need to get the logo and I'm not sure how to get it. Do you have any links?

Re: Facebook

Nice job. I just edited the top sticky to include it.

Just suggest some spell check on the "Description", other than that, looks great and I think will help spread the word.

enthusiests = enthusiasts
accociated = associated

Be good to upload some group GTG's photos, etc. with members in them.

I've been a member for this site for a few years, just usually never post. Figured I might as well start! Gotta get my car up and going someday since I am having a kid and plan on passing it down someday!

Well my car runs, and runs great for the engine having 200k miles on it. Only thing is, my car is still at my last base in New Jersey and I'm trying to save money (Around $1000) to get my car shipped out here. The whats wrong with my car? The few noticable things:

Loose steering column, side to side (You notice a bit of sloppiness when turning and the alignment is pretty off since the steering column is so loose).

Someone hit my car a little bit back in Jersey, in my parking lot. Dented in the passenger side front quarter panel and scraped some paint off.

Small leak in the windshield and a small crack on the far left of the windshield from a rock hitting it on my way to NY one weekend.
