Re: Houston Meet Soon?

I don't think there will be any cars there tonight due to the weather. I usually go if the weather's good.

Re: Houston Meet Soon?

I go to Otto's pretty often also. It is the closest meet for me.
There are often a lot more than 30 cars. I generally see a couple of third-gens, some are really nice.

I know one guy with 3 third gen firebirds who brings one of them almost every week. All three are really nice; a GTA, a Formula and a Turbo TA.

Re: Houston Meet Soon?

i've never actually been out to any car shows for the third gens yet.. This july 25th is the first one I will attend.. I've been turning and burning the wrenches trying to get my baby half way decent for the show... I'm debating about switching out my intake and carb to a Edelbrock performer RPM and a 1405 600cfm carb... Have any of you used the carter 650cfm carb? The only real reason I want the change is a little more horse and a lot more clean... Since I have to take pretty much everything off to do this it gives me a chance to clean it all up pretty nice.. Plus let me patch a couple problem spots...

Re: Houston Meet Soon?

I dunno about otto's or any other upcoming meetings, but my wife and I went to the July 25th meeting. My wife has been wanting some kind of 3rd gen for a while and pictures just couldnt tell her which one she liked better, camaro or firebird. Anyway we showed up and saw some pretty cars, but kinda kept to ourselves since we didnt know anyone and felt like we didnt belong since we were there in an S-10 lol. Anyway though, soon we will have a Firebird (she liked those more once she saw em in person) and will be joining you in more events.

She likes the Formula's 350's, up to 90. We are looking at a few right now from 87-90, we just cant decide just how much we want to/are able to spend. Definitly wanna find one with low miles though.
