Arizona Roll Call!
 

Ladies and gents its about that time for the Cruise on Central!!

I want to use this event as an opportunity to meet all the Arizona thirdgeners. It would be nice to meet those of you that arent really active on here or just lurk lol. Our board has been really dead for a while now, everyone who is still out there chime in, and let us know you are still out there. Maybe post some pics of your car. Im hoping alot of you can make it to the cruise this year.

Ill start,
My name is Alex i live on the west side I have a 1991 RS i probably know a good amount of you because i sell Thirdgen parts here and there.

EDIT: CRUISE ON CENTRAL WILL BE ON

4/13/2013

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'd be down to meet up sometime, although I couldn't make 4/13. I got a baby due in Apr, but won't be available much until June.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Its all good just wanna see whos still out there havent seen some people in years lol

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I am stuck in CA at the moment, I don't think that I can make it by the 13. By the way, did you ever put on those headers that I sold you?

im down to go. Is it Tucson or Phoenix?

There is always one at the end of the year also, btw congrats on the baby!

Good to hear from you again Dan, the headers were for my buddys RS i did install them and a month later some lady pulled out infront of him and the whole car was totalled
he bought this with the insurance money tho

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

It would be nice to get the Notch on the open road. Is there a website or something for more info?

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

There isnt to much info on it since its si well known this is the best site i found.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'm in Kingman for the next month and a half then I'm moving back to Salt Lake city (THANK GOD!!).

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

make it down to the cyuise before you leave lol
get a burnout or two in

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Sounds like fun. Too bad my car can't pass emissions currently.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Don't know if I'll head down to Central Cruise or not. It's usually such a cluster that I either avoid it completely or show up for a lap or two on the street and then leave. That and there's racing to do on the 14th so I might be in a maintenance cycle on the 13th.

I'm Tom, live in the West Valley and own a few 3rd gens. 82 Z28, 88 GTA, 90 IROC vert, 92 RS right now. The 88 and the 92 are heavily modified. The 82 and the 90 are almost completely stock.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Hey Alex, It's Art I'll be there I usually park on the NW corner of Central and Thomas There's a grassy corner there and we usually have a grill and BYOM.

BTW, I'm not really in the market for a posi any more, I think my vibration problem is T5 related.

Hope to see you next Saturday :)

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'm Nick and I live out in west Phoenix (a few miles from the Cardinals Stadium).

I've got an 85' bird a 92' bird and an 01' Z28.

My 85 is currently receiving most of the parts that were in the 92, but my 01' is my daily driver.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!

hopefully lets get some thirdgens out there! lol

Art i have one but not sure if i wanna part with it email me

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Bummer that I missed the cruise, but I'm having some issues with my IROC anyway.

Some of you know me, I'm Jason and have a few thirdgens.
Alex, get collector car insurance. Cheaper, and as long as it's not your daily driver, youre covered. Did you ever get the impala fixed?

Also, been working with a machinist lately and may be developing some billet aluminum emblems (Z-28, GTA badges for the dash and ground effects, fender and such.) Look for a group buy and some feelers from me in the very near future. Also may be developing some billet hood hinges around this time next year.
Got some other billet parts in the works (Depending on interest.) such as a set of billet IROC hood vents that can be left raw, polished or painted black to look just like the factory pieces. Might be very expensive, though.
Jason.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Go with an inland empire driveshaft. Not that expensive and a really well-made piece.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I got 2 year tags already and I have been daily driving it lol collector insurance for someone my age is $1000+ a year and that's more then I can afford to put up all at once.
I'm tearing down the motor this week I got a complete rebuild in trade for some.stuff I had. I need stock valvetrain tho cam, springs, keepers, and retainers. It'll be on the road in the next few weeks. I would be interested in the hinges for sure!

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'm still here. cant say i read alot of posts anymore. Hell, i was just bored tonight and decided to actually look at the "new posts." Mostly just combing through the F/S ads, looking for little things here and there.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Atleast you still lurk lol
You have the blue Iroc right?

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

The hinges are going to be a later project if all goes well with the emblems and other small parts. Just gotta get some other things out of the way first.
I have a feeling the hinges are going to be a little pricy, but very cool! (and most importantly, no binding when the hood is lifted!
Jason.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

But when are you going to put the car back together and get it out on the road again?

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

no, its red. well, parts of it are red. :imo:

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

when i have time and money. mostly money. I was happy to get the a/c & hvac controls wiring harness off here and wire that back into the harness. I will say I was hoping to have the a/c box (inside) installed and the a/c ducts and lower dash installed before summer hit. oh well. interior is done minus redoing the headliner, a/c & dash i just mentioned, and drive side door lock mechanism. Not sure im missing a part or just installing it wrong. :doh: besides that, just going to save up for now. either going to go for the cam and power steering pump, prob some porting on the HSR as well, first, or finish up the suspension with new struts and A-Arms, wheels/tires and brakes.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'm in Yuma Az and Rialto Ca. . I'm working on my 91 rs just going thru this forum reading up for help

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Hey I'm also in Yuma, could I come by and check out your Camaro sometime?

Re: Arizona Roll Call!

and a little engine bay porn

Attachment 349093

There are clean cars out there. You just have to be in the right part of town to find them. Once the GTA comes out of paint, I expect she'll be driving it a lot.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

OK I will chime in here I am new to the site my name is Chris and live in el mirage. I am not new to third gens but it has been a while since I have had the pleasure of owning one until recent. I know I missed this cruise but hope to make it to others.Attachment 345886

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I will make it to the "winter" cruise if I have to buy somebody else's (Already running.)thirdgen and then drive it there! LOL

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

hmmmmm..... begins thinking bad things about selling one of the spares for way more than it's really worth.......

And the winter cruises have to get fit in around track day schedules and another motor swap so I will commit to nothing at this point because that LS will go into the GTA this year if I can find a few weekends where the car or I won't be tied up with other activities.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I'm Mike and I live in Litchfield Park. I have owned several Camaro's over the years: 2-'67's, a '78, an '86, '89, '91, '96, and a '97. I currently own a '91 1LE. It has been torn apart for years now but I hope to get it on the road this winter. Everything mechanical has been done including a 377 ci stroker engine, T56 swap, Baer brakes with 4th gen booster and master, Koni struts and shocks, and all new front end parts.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Hi Mike I am right off of dysart and Waddell so real close. Your car looks right on where I want to go with mine. I like it maybe we can talk about your break set up and suspension stuff sometime.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Sounds good. I'm at Litchfield and Bethany Home. When things slow down for me at work I plan on spending more time on the car. If some people are interested I would be willing to host a BBQ/wrench party when the weather cools off a bit. I'm going to disassemble the front suspension again to install weight jacks. Most of the big stuff is done on my car (tubular K-member and A-arms, engine and trans installed) but I still have all of the little stuff to do (plumbing brakes, engine wiring, cut shifter hole, exhaust, etc.).

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I would be I interested in BBQ sounds fun I have A wife and 3 kids that are awesome. Hope to see you around good luck on the car and let me know if BBQ comes around

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Nice rides! Mines is no were near that clean....
My name is Jose I live in south Phoenix on 35th ave and baseline ...

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Looks nice wish I could get rid of my hood hate my ws6 hood want a stock one with livers or one like yours

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Factory flat ones aren't that hard to find. The Z28 louvered ones are harder to get though.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Ya I have been looking for louvered one for a while. I also like the 4th gen SS hood that comes to a point in a way at front of hood the low rise one. I car much for the one that is high in the center.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

High center hoods have a use when the engine underneath won't fit with the flat hood. I run a 2 inch cowl on my 92 just to get it to close over the Holley Stealth Ram intake and intercooler ducting.

But I'll be honest, I've never really liked the WS6 style hood on a 3rd gen. Just my opinion, but they just don't look right.

If you go with the SS style, be prepared to spend money for a good one and then more money to have it cleaned up to fit correctly. GM's build quality on these cars was never the best when they were new so there is enough variation even in cars that have never been in accidents that it's almost a guarantee any aftermarket fiberglass will need some work to get it to fit right.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

I agree about the WS6 hood doesn't look right. The fitting all painting and extra work just isn't worth it right now.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Might be selling my '85 soon, Cruise Ready

Stay tuned...

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Sure. . Its not running right now I need to get a radiator. I'm buying one at radiators direct here in town. Or get mine fixed. . Not entirely sure yet.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

And the new and improved GTA fresh out of paint and body restoration. It's amazing what you find when you pull all the panels off the car and then go "WTF, guess that explains why it was doing..." Still need to get the street tires back on it and get the rear glass tinted.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

Hey all, Im new here and this is my first post!!

My name is Jesus and I love long walks on the beach...um....that is my intro.

But enough about me.I have a 3rd gen (91 formula 305/5sp hard top). My car is currently down with a fuel problem. This is my first car and I dont think i will ever part with it.

Mr. 305 I have been going to the cruise down central since 2000 (still in HS at the time). I don't recall seeing your car, then again I don't recall half the things I eat for lunch LOL. I would love to meet any one that has the love for 3rd gens. I currently live in Central PHX.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
 

The cruise on central is just around the corner lads!

Any who, since this is a roll call, I too am Alex. My friends call me Chicken or Pollo, or whatever to grab my attention. I own this lovely 91 Firebird shown below. I am currently in the process of converting to Fuel Injection. She has a cam only carbed 6.0 with a t56 behind it ( thinking about gettting rid of the 6 speed) and a built 10 bolt (dont ask why) lol. I live up on the westside near the Cardinal stadium. I rarely get on the board anymore but I will get on from time to time, Mr. 305 is my bff and none of you can have him!!!!! :/ jk he's a whore so have it. Anyway, I hope to see more of our local thridgeners and to see some big *** burnouts from them!!!!
