Hey Joe! Got some good projects going there. I especially like that Ventura.

 

yeah, thats roughly 10 mins away. if other plans dont come up ill be there.

 

Thanks!!! I'm anxious to get started working on them, just wish the weather would co-operate so I can get the things I need to do first done. The ventura has grown on me. I really wanted a Nova of that year but I couldn't pass this up. I figured it was pretty much a Nova with a different front end so it's all good, and it's a car that you don't see very often.

When the time comes, I'll post up the date of the beater brunch and hope to see ya there.

 

I have an 86 TA with the 305 TPI. Its my restoration project/Daily Driver. I'm out of Vancouver WA.

 

welcome! i have an 86 iroc 305tpi. smiliar

 

Hail Washingtonians! I'm in Kalama, just south of Longview/Kelso and own a 1991 Z28. It has a goodwrench crate engine, various other mods, the most recent being a remote starter switch for the finicky starter problems. I also just got done swapping in a T56, i'm now a happy man. It's my daily driver, i put about 1800mi a month on this thing and get between 20-23 mpg's.

My next project will be a 67 convertible camaro, once both my dad and my brother decide to sell it to me. The way things are looking, that could happen alot sooner than later! I try not to get too excited, smashing things with a hammer helps calm me down.

I also own a 70 RS, had some head work and fresh cam installed but its gonna be something that I end up handing down to my son to work on. I think my daughter will end up with the 91, it's more her style lol.

 

just to let everyone know, i just moved up to gig harbor, so if there are any third gens up here let me know!

 

I just saw this thread i really need to be checking in more often.

thats cool, im in the wauna/purdy area.

 

Corey, where at in renton are you, I haven't seen your ride around. I am up in east highlands

 

im actually on the border of kent, like fairwood area

 

Funny, I went to Peninsula High School.

 

Billy

First car, had it for four years now
We should get a meet together soon before the weather gets too nasty, I'm in Tacoma

 

Anybody nearby the Bonney Lake/Sumner area?

 

Not sure if I should start a new thread, but anyways, the PNWCC Beater Brunch is this Saturday at Jimmy Jacks Restaurant, 13428 Highway 99, Everett WA. It is a car show for project vehicles. I think we are going to be take my girlfriend's orange 78 Camaro to the show this year. Unfortunately, none of my rigs are driveable right now.

 

hey all! I live in Kent. I just got a 83 Firebird a couple of months ago. Haven't done much to it yet (money). But I love it.

I'd love to meet up with any of you that are close. I'm basically dumb with cars (but am slowly learning). I actually looking to do exhaust (headers, cat, muffler). Any recommendations on where to go to do this?

I'll post pictures when I get home.

 

self serve garage in kent, got a lift and tools to diy., im in kent as well. post up some pics! BTW it wouldnt happen to be black would it? if so im like two houses down from you LOL

 

diy sounds great...if I knew ANYTHING about cars lol. I wouldn't know the first thing about doing something like that

My firebird is grey haha. I'll definitely post some pics when I get back home. I live up on east hill in Kent by the way.

 

ok, id spend a day on youtube listining to exhaust syatems! haha. find what you want and order it. headers are faily easy just need basic tools. the rest will probobly need a welder.

 

Ya i've been researching...I think I want the Spintech for my muffler. Then I think it's Magnaflow for the high flow cat. And hooker headers. I have no idea what is on there now. I know the guy I bought it from did some stuff but not sure what exactly. Even parts are confusing (for me) because of the different sizes and crap. Not sure what size pipes I have or if I want different/new pipes and if so, what size lol. so much to learn

 

spintech sounds really good! just get a tape measure and measure the exhaust exit from one side to the other IF theres not a tip on it. if you have aftermarker pipes from the cat back and there not rusted I would leave those be. no need to replace piping thats good.

 

cool, thanks for the advice. I think there is a tip on there but im not sure. I haven't really looked under my car to see what else is going on there. The tip says Magnaflow on there so maybe there already is some Magnaflow exhaust stuff on there. The sound is nice but certainly not as loud as I'd like.

 

they allow you to take pictures or part of a car lol with picture

 

I think it was a couple years ago I went to the show and someone there had brought the parts they had currently accumulated for a project and set them up in a parking space....IIRC there was a rear axle, front wheels, fenders, and some body parts.

 

I wasnt even aware that it was this weekend, & I belong to PNWCC & go to almost all the meetings. (heck I am an area rep & club historian) lol.

guess its being done with out the general club knowing the date

heck its not even on the club calender

 

I got the email from Scott S. Monday. Just went to double check I had the date right too.

 

I just created a GROUP on FACEBOOK called FbodyWA for all washington Fbody owners. send me a messege or request and i can add you to the group.
here is my profile
http://www.facebook.com/groups/26417...orey.lamberson
and here is the group
http://www.facebook.com/groups/26417...4177620284315/

 

I dunno if that'll take off,most CC users shun FB because it would kill our forum, and Luke's already got NWSF goin on his own time, too many groups cause a lapse in communication between everyone that's why we use cascade crew and I believe there's a Washington camaro club already lol

 

yeah, i was thinking about that. LOL

 

Yea PNWCC has a Facebook page & a forum, the forum is dead, but we also have meetings & news letters plus we get our stuff out via emails.

But you can never have to many stuff on line either, If people dont know you are out there, then how are they going to find you?????

We are running up to about 200 members now on PNWCC, Mostly 1st & 5th gens, some 3rd gens like me & a few 4th geners.

 

thanks, i sent a request to join PNWCC on facebook

 

Ok I just added you

 

thanks!

 

Laura, JTS' girlfriend.

Corrie
Spokane WA
Just bought a 1982 Indy 500 Pace Car
Its a work in progress. Im going to restore it to original.

Currently own: the Pace Car, 04 Chevy silverado SS and an 06 2500HD with 8.1L.
Past cars: 1988 Cavalier, 1989 Berretta, 2002 Cavalier, 2000 Tahoe Z71

 

make sure you check the vin number to see if it is listed in the book

 

What book?

 

Official Chevrolet Pace car book

If its a 4 disc brake car it should be in there. if not you can get it added to the list.

I owned the number 3 car listed in the book at one point in time. even though the vin number in the book was a misprint, instead of a 8 they had an A

 

Im not sure if its a 4 disc brake car. Ive only had it 4 days. Ill have to check that out. Where is this book? How can I find out if my vin is in there?

 

check amazon
page 181 has the list of the ones that were in it until 1990ish.

 

 

Update since my last post:

I sold the '89 RS and picked up an '85 Berlinetta which is currently being transformed into an IROC clone. I still have the '86 T/A.

 

Haha just wait for my update john, I think you'll enjoy it you might have seen the early pics on cascade crew

 

Ok, so who has the blue RS that I was driving next to in Renton today? Hi whoever you are! It looks good

 

I better go over there and check it out!

EDIT: You mean the pics where your car is all masked off? Saw those already. Are there more pics that I missed?

I live in Renton, but it wasn't me! There is a guy in my complex who drives a teal '91 - '92 RS, but it is pretty clapped out.

 

This one was a pretty nice lookin' RS, solid blue. No crappy or anything, I was pleasantly surprised I'm in Tukwila myself, so I'm always around this area.

 

In my neighborhood there are five 3rdgens that I see regularly. Most are pretty rough!
