1:00 don't sound too bad. My kid has a friggin soccer game at 9:00 so I'll be available at 1:00. Do we still want to try to do it at the Addams County Fairgrounds? Since tomorrow is the day in question, we should figure this out today, yes?

Anywhere within and hour or so is fine with me. I live around 120th and I-25, if nothing else, the faregrounds is a decent place start, besides it sounds to me there will be only 3 or 4 of use there.

I guess that I'll cruise on by ther around 1:00 or so, and if y'all are there cool, if not I'll rip Riverdale a new a$$hole a couple times, and go home. A Riverdale run is well worth the drive for me.

I ran went by the fairgrounds about 1:15 or so and didn't see any other third gens. I did pass a 91-92 vert bird when I turned off Riverdale, and a red IROC, but nothing else. There was some kind of swap meet or something of the like going on there. Anyway, I didn't see anyone else, so I boogied and ran Riverdale twice then went home.

I actually live bout 30 miles north of Denver in Frederick. That is 2 miles east of mile marker 235 on I-25. I work in Downtown Denver, and I am in the Broomfield/Westy area frequently since both my parents live down there. 2Birds--Thanks for the nice words about my car, it does need paint quite bad though. I should have the 91-92 style wing on it today or tomorrow. That will get rid of that cracked, warped, fugged up p.o.s. that's on there now, then it's just a matter of scrounging up the bux to paint it. Yours however looked pretty sweet to me, I looked for a vert a couple years ago but couldn't find any that I'd give a squirt of **** for. I really like your car. Let me know if a get together comes together soon. I hear there will be snow this week, but nice by the weekend.

Why is it there are only four of us giving a dam about this? For me, firebirds/f-bodies are my hobby and a passion. I love to check out cars and mods, thats one reason we are on this board, but nothing beats the real deal. So, next time we'll get together at a place to eat,bar or a store of somekind. What do you all think?

I'll try and convince my brother to bring out his IROC if we ever get solid plans together so y'all can see it. He's in the middle of putting a Dana 44 in place of his Dana 36 (that he's blown up 3 times) and a couple of other drivetrain tweaks in it. If we get a definite location/time I'll be there, and maybe he'll come too.

sorry I missed this post but I'm with Neo on this one except I don't have the dough to paint my car right now. But it looks like $hit untile it gets paint. Hopefully I can catch up to you guys next season when things are a little closer to done.

Hell, my car is about 4 shades of red right now, but I'll still try to make it. I just got my 91-92 areo wing on and I'm hoping to take it out this weekend, provided that I can sit in my car after surgery on Fri. I'm not big on Starbucks coffee, but that dson't mean that we can't still meet at a Starbucks and shoot the $hit or find somewhere else to go and raise some hell.

Or Second Creek. I'm all for a get together, wwe just need to set up a specific time & place to meet. Once we all meet, we could always go for a run up the mountain or go somewhere to raise hell.

Hey slow91Z28,

I live in the springs too. I made it to the grocery warehouse a couple times last summer. Now, my car is sitting. I've got a transmission to replace, as well as all of the intake gaskets. If you drive up and down Academy around Austin Bluffs, you will see my camaro. I'm sounth of Academy and Austin Bluffs, across from the Wendys.

I have met Katie too.

Everyone else,
I would love to go to a gathering. I'm just have a very busy schedule, with little time off. If you wouldn't mind me showing up in my parents minivan, until my camaro is fixed, then I'd show up.

Later,
Jesse
