I have seen a few more thirdgens in the last few weeks. Seems like I've seen a lot more lately than I had in the last couple of years. I saw a black Camaro twice on Moorpark road in Thousand Oaks last week. Also saw a red Camaro convertible at the intersection of Westlake Blvd and Thousand Oaks Blvd with a blonde lady driving it. Then I saw the car in the photo below on Pierce Arrow crossing Thousand Oaks Blvd last weekend. This one, I was actually able to get a photo.

 

I think that's a fantastic looking car. I hope your wife's cousin joins TGO.

 

I stayed at a La Quinta hotel in Meridian MS a few weeks ago. I was stunned when I looked out the front window and say an old service station across the street with at least 5 third gens plus a bunch of fox bodies. I'm from the rusty north; these cars looked clean.

 

Appreciate the rarity, but the pale yellow never appealed to me. NOW, if a third gen was painted in '86 Corvette yellow.....

Note also the rare 2 tone and rare locking gas door.

 

Those chromed Hi tech rims look nice

 

Personalized plate & all.Looks to have a camaro deck lid judging by the spoiler.Possible project car.

 

I was out on Cape Cod this past weekend and caught this convertible parked in town.

 

Spotted a 305 formula, it looked clean but had some damage on the right front bumper. No idea why it had a tie strap on the rear deck lid unless the lock mechanism is broken for the hatch.

 

The right rear quarter panel of that Firebird is crunched too.

 

Probably, I saw a 90-92 Camaro over the weekend with a bungee holding the trunk down and thought the same thing

 

saw this guy riding around green township cincinnati today, super clean rs

 

white formula,with rust racing stripes, been sitting in the same place for at least 10 years

 

First cruise in of the year in Denton, MD. I was surprised when I wasn't the only third gen in attendance. Met the owner of this '92 RS. Said he rescued it after someone hit a deer and parked it. Fresh paint, and pretty clean.

 

Michigan F-Body (MIFB) Meet & Greet, Milford, Michigan.

 

I wanna see more pics from this gathering, with walk ons it had to get very very close to 300.

 

spotted 2 at a cruise in last night

 

There were 344 the last time I asked, Buddy. It was a nice day, and a very good turnout.

Unfortunately, I only took a few photos. They are posted in my build thread here.

344 is amazing!!!!! All Fbodies gathered in one area, thats great! Only thing better is the TA nats!

 

I need to get to the Nats, no doubt.

 

A little late to the party, I caught this 'Maro south of Seattle Wal-mart parking lot last fall

 

Saw this one at Walmart not sure if member

 

This one popped up a few miles from my house in rural eastern Maryland. Never seen it around before. California plates? Sticker is from 2014.

1987 GTA. Still has the original window sticker. 5.7 car with paddle mirrors. Certainly not a $6500 car, but a decent survivor. Busted front bumper and tail light, and a clearcoat starting to peel. Windows are so dark, could not see much inside. Aftermarket radio is about all I could make out. Unknown mileage.

 

Nice, clean car, rims look really good on it.

 

Spotted this Formula on the way home from the JY on Hwy 80W in Ladonia, AL.

 

10 minutes from my house. Has digital dash. I left a note if they wanted to sell but no word yet. I really want to rescue this poor car.

 

Sorry I've been gone for awhile, but I haven't forgotten this thread! I've spotted quite a few since my last posts....here ya go!!!!

 

I hope you can save it!

 

I agree. Car looks to be pretty straight maybe that rust is mainly surface and can be handled. Id be on it too if I saw it parked up. Id love to see you bring it back to life! Sad thing is lots of times these people almost get mad when you ask them about these cars and claim they are going to fix them "one day". I cant tell you how many ive seen sit right there and rot down.

 

Spotted in Southington ct!

 

That would prob be a crazy feeling to be a member on here for years and then come to find out another person took a pic of your car and find it on this thread! lol

 

no ticket on the cracked windshield yet?

police in that area are , well lets say, lookin for revenue.

 

Dude ive just been waiting for that to happen!

 

 

Saw this one in Stedman, NC.

 

Found this while out on a walk. '88 with a full 4th gen interior and LS1/t56 swap out if a '02 Camaro. The $15k price seems a little steep though.

 

You mean it's $15K and a rebate check for $10K in the console right ???

Those wheels YUCK !! $15K

It wasn't so long ago those ROH rims were extremely popular with the 3rd gen crowd. I dare say they still are. Probably quite a few members on this board still run them I would say.

 

Technically not a real parking lot but saw this on the show Junkyard Empire on Velocity. Red third gen hidden in the top right corner.

 

 

wow! very nice!

 

My Buddy was cruising through an area and spotted this IROC in between 2 Houses. I am away working until the 20th and will be stopping by to see if it's for sale.
He says it looks Pretty decent and looks to have been sitting for a while.

A Pity Seeing It Sitting There With The Trash.

 

Spotted up the road from me!

 

Lol One of my younger brothers had one JUST like that back in 04/05 !!


It was an '85 LB9/Auto car. He would probably still have it, If hadn't flipped it in a ditch

Saw this today just outside of Little Rock, Arkansas at a U pull it.

 

I don't know why I like this but I like it a lot.

 

My wife and me had lunch at a local restaurant. I was surprised to see this '86 IROC in the parking lot as I pulled in. Owners were an older couple, possible original owner?



When I was looking at the pic this morning, I noticed the derelict brick building in the background. That's the old Chevrolet dealer in Federalsburg, MD. From the days when every town had a Chevy dealer. I bought my second Camaro (used) from this dealer back in 1992. It closed/relocated a few years later. The fenced area that the front of my car is facing in the top picture, used to be their inventory area. The years have not been kind. Here's what it looked like on February 1 1992, the day I bought my '87:

 

Saw this beaut while out running errands today.

 

This is parked near Big 3 Racing in Hinckley.
Also, when taking my younger son to his girlfriend's house in Independence, there is a blue '89 (?) RS forsale on her street.

There seems to be quite a few thirdgens in the western/southwestern suburbs of Cleveland. Funny how when you start looking for a certain type of car, they pop up everywhere.
