I haven't been active on these boards since 2010. Hi again all.

In 2011 I transferred to UC Davis from DVC, graduated with my B.S. in Civil Eng. in 2013 and my M.S. in 2014 (just this month, submitted my thesis last week). I made sure my third gen was in top shape when I moved here, and she's been solid as a rock the entire time. I knew I wouldn't have any time to work on her and luckily I haven't had to at all. Just took her out for a spin this morning.

The dust and leaves haven't been kind to the paint job, and some ****er jumped on the hood deforming it a little, but she's still pretty. I just got an awesome job in Elk Grove and hope to get back into the groove of things now that my studies are over. I'm thinking it's finally time to dig up that Crane cam that's been sitting in my parents' garage for years and toss 'er in.

So, what's new? Any Sac people that want to say what's up? I'm thinking of moving to midtown.

It's no wonder california is the center for hot rod culture... with roads like that, plus all the mountain roads...

Im jealous.

Welcome back! I was wondering where you went! I have been overseas since I left for the the military almost 5 years ago, and I have another 16 months to go before I come back for good!

I remember stuffing 2 front seats in your RS with your car having full interior! Good times, and definitely a clean ride!

Nice to see that the board isn't the only thing that hasn't changed.

Ever end up doing anything with the 700R4 you dragged out of my parents backyard with a rope?

Actually it was a full set two fronts AND the backs. Fit no problem and still had room for my buddy in the passenger seat! I installed them as soon as I got home and they are still in my car.

Thanks guys.

I'll take that as a compliment

If I remember right that is the one that I also gave away after not getting it built by some 700R4 "pro". Had a lot of 700's and really they are best outside of the car where they belong, or being recycled for scrap.

Long time no see dude. Hope all is well. Be sure and check out Camaro Generations Cars in the Park, in Elk Grove this year if you haven't in the past.
