So anyone from the Springs, Denver, or Aurora area want to meet up and caravan up to Fort Collins? Trying to think of a central area to meet up at.

 

Mebbe Castle Rock? I'm not sure if I'm 100% going yet, but I'm in the springs so I drive right through there on the way up. any thoughts?

 

From what is being mentioned and suggested on the FB MHTG group site, its looking like people coming from the south and Denver are looking at meeting at the Park & Ride at I25 & 120th. This is on the west side on I25, and there is a gas station right there for snacks and gogo juice if yoru car needs it.

Hope you all can make it!

 

So far the meeting place for all third gens is at the park n ride off I25 and 120th, we are looking to start meeting up by 915 and roll out at about 945 so we can get to ft collins by 11. Man my car is most likely gonna look the crappiest of the bunch. Definately not looking forward to that. *sigh*

 

Cool cool I'll see you guys there then!

 

by the way, does anyone have an address to the park n ride? or is it just right off the highway. I'm not in Denver much so I'm kinda worried I'ma get lost lol.

 

Its honestly very easy... 120th st exit, take a left crossing the interstate to the west and its on the left side. There is a little Conoco gas station on the left. Swing a u-turn at the light and make a right turn into where all the cars are parked... Just keep your eyes out for 120th!

 

Hey Guys. Im in Arvada and If im off I will come on by. All if i get my Fuel pump done by then! (I was 87Bird on MHTG.net ive tried a few times the last month or so and nothing sucks cause it was all colorado guys!)

 

Glad to see that you joined the FB site. That seems to be working untill we can get an actual website figured out. Hope to see you Sunday, and see this 92 Z28 of yours!

 

well, looks like I won't be making it after all. Car's back in the shop again... this time for a fuel pump. I hate screwing with the fuel system. It's still possible there could be a miracle and it'll get done tomorrow, but I'm not counting on havin my baby back until monday or tuesday.

 

With a little bit of elbow grease and an extra hand, you could of done it yourself at the most, in 4 hours, and saving over $100 bucks.

 

Man I know it. But ive never done a fuel pump before and this is my only car. Im about to start my new job and I need my car done right unfortunately...

 

Hey I started a thread in the appearance board for the club meeting cruise, and posted pics if anyone wanted to see what you missed

is MHTG website gone now? I haven't been there for a couple years but really started to get motivation to work on my car again. Glad to see some of the old club still around

 

Yeah the website is down as of now, but almost all the old members are on the FB page.

 

So When is the next get together? Lol

 

 

Id love to meet up with the locals sometime, only seen one thirdgen at an actual show and few on the road but would be nice to meet everyone and talk about cars etc.

 

Well im down for a meetup in the springs. Just lemme know when and ill be there. As long as im not working haha

 

likewise haha im usually working weekends till 5 so i miss out on most of the shows now but I think a sick day or two is worth meetin up

 

I'll keep you updated on any MHTG stuff that may be going on.

 

Did everyone's cars do ok in the springs? That hail has been visious the last couple days. Im about to get comprehensive insurance cuz I cant afford to fix the car if it gets damaged...

 

Back in 2003, there was a crazy hailstorm. I thought my ttops where gonna brake. The only there wasn't much damage other than a few dents on the center metal divider of the ttop glass.

 

I need a good un-cracked dash pad... If you guys have one, or have seen one out in the "yards" let me know.

 

Havent been to the yard in a while but front range Camaro on the south side of Co Springs usually has some nice stuff they are worth giving a call or stopping by

 

Yeah I have no clue where that is. I would come to the springs to get one, but I gotta know its good since its a good 2hrs from here

You have a phone number or website?

there ya go. I've heard good things about them but never been there personally. If you do end up going down there, post what you think about em.

 

Thanks. I sent them an email. I will let you know. I hope I find one closer to home though

 

If you do go to them its a little hard to find. its off a small road, hidden by trees. took me a good half hour looking in the neighborhood the first time i went. The owner is a cool guy, used to be a big racer back in the day from what i heard. The shop looks a bit trashy ( cant expect much from a junk yard) but he has great stuff for great prices ($200 for weatherstripping, compared to Hawks $600)
I am pretty sure there is a Camaro yard in Lakewood, i was searching everywhere for a new shifter a few months back and found them. ill post the info if i find it

 

Was the little road "Las Vegas Rd"? IIRC, there are a few junkyards down that road.

 

i wish i could say, but i have never actually looked haha. i need a new headlight tension spring so i may be down there this weekend and i can look. the best way i can explain it is its south of the world arena. If you head south on US-87 its the first left after you go over I-25 and its like the third building down in the little area

 

i just looked on a map and it shows the road as "Daniels Ssand rd" idk if thats much help though

 

I know Las Vegas Rd is in that area because when I was stationed at Ft. Carson, I had to buy a door glass for our Ford Aerostar due to the incredible high winds that roll down Cheyenne Mountain. Just out of the gate that leads to Academy Blvd was Las Vegas rd. But who knows. It may help others but definetaly not me. I live in SoCal now.

 

I am over in Norwood, I store my 92 red 25th anniversary over in Montrose.

 

Welcome! Post a pic of your that 25th

 

So when we arranging another get together? lol.

 

I would love to soon, maybe after the fires calm down a bit. The Waldo Canyon fire is around a mile from my home now so I'm waiting it out in Penrose. But I would really love to have a meet up soon.

 

I hope everything turns out ok for you and your family man!

 

Is the fire that big? I was stationed at Ft Carson when the Hayman wildfire occurred. What's the difference, if any?

 

OHHHHHH YEEEAAAAH!!!! The difference is this HUGE fire is happening in a populated area and burning houses like they were trees. 32,000 people evacuated.

The videos of it burning houses one after another last night was seriously the craziest thing I have seen on TV. The fire outside Fort Collins is almost 90K acres, and clsoe to 300 homes in two weeks, and I would bet 300 burned last night.

 

WOW!!! The town I live in is only 5000+. 33,000 is tremendous.

 

Incredible!

 

yeah we had 10,000 trying to leave our neighborhood. So far the fire is blowing past most of my area and is heading more towards USAFA and Douglas County but Woodland Park is now evacuated as well. I would really love to have a meet up and even a caravan after all this is over. Hanging out with all the thirdgens and showing what we got sounds great, it'll be a shining light in these darker times.

 

Hope everyone is ok.

 

well I'm finally home, for now haha. Anyways what would our meet up consist of? hang out and talk about cars, go caravan up north?

 

Hope everyone is doing alright. that fire was some scary ****. I was a 1/4 mile away when it started coming over the ridge by mountain shadows. I hope I never have to see anything like that again. I still don't know if my girlfriend's house is even standing.

 

Better late than never. Checking in from the springs here. I would love to meetup once I replace my fuel pump AGAIN!

Swapping out the rear with some 3.42's this time.

Anyone have a posi unit for sale?

 

that makes two of us with a new fuel pump in the near future lol. hope we can do a meetup after I get mine fixed.

 

I have been looking into getting a posi. if you have it by the meetup im gonna be asking you all about it haha

 

So what is the word on a caravan? or at least a meet? i know one other thirdgen owner that would like to join as well.
