How many third gens

have you seen in Houston recently? I have seen very few third gens here in Houston that are in really good condition or in great condition. I have seen more third gens that have been ragged out. I see more third gen camaros than formulas or trans-ams also. How many in here take there car out to the strip like Larry?

I have seen a couple of thirdgens out here in Katy, seems that most of the drivers are middle aged women. All the rich kids out here have fourth gens.Right now my RS is a little ragged out , have the parts to fix it just need the money to get them painted and repaired, so whenever I go to any car shows I take my 78 trans-am.

I am in Pasadena. I have been plagued with an overheating issue all summer long, and i've yet to figure it out. If it stops raining tomorrow (saturday); i am going to look at it again. I have not gone to any meets because of the overheating issue. I thought i would have been able make it to the last meeting before college/school started, but i couldn't resolve my overheating problem.

I want my car running right. As it is, i can't go very far before my car heats up; wether it be on the streets, or on the highway. Hope to see you and the RS soon!

I live in Pasadena too! I had an overheating problem... turns out it was a partially clogged radiator. I fixed the radiator at some little shop in Pasadena that my dad has gone to since he was like 15, and I replaced the water pump. No more overheating

Oh, by the way, my car isnt all ragged out, and in my opinion it is the best looking one I have seen locally... :lala: Now all I need to do is make it fast

Well mine isnt ragged either. And everywhere I go everybody tells me I have one of the cleanest 3rd gens here in Houston. She is a rolling project as we speak. And as soon as I get my new engine rebuilt . I along w/ my club will be going to the track for the monthly club vs. club drag race at lonestar park. I ve seen more T/A's then camaro's. Since moving from Florida.

when I said my car is a little ragged out I should have explained better. My frontend was backed into causing damage to the front clip and a small dent in the hood, both doors have been hit, but only drivers side is noticeable, I take very good care of my car and have had it for five years putting almost 90,000 miles on top of the 60,000 miles it had when i got it.I just wanted to explain so everybody new I didn't just treat my car like crap. i have had bad luck when parking in the streets with having my car being hit four times while i wasn't in it, thats the reason that there is damage

Heck, I see one every day. My Car

I live in the Woodlands. I see thirdgens around all the time, a few at Montgomery College often. They are alright, but no real nice ones.

Sonar,

Is that you running around The Woodlands in a red camaro with the ram air 2 hood. If so your car is really nice. I have seen it driving through the woodlands a few times.
