I am in Knoxville, just down the road from you. Check out www.highperformancetoys.com

There are a lot of local guys on there. We usually have postings in our events section on when we get together and where we are going. Usually Saturday nights start out at Clinton Highway in Knoxville, and wind up in Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg. You should try and meet up with us sometime.

There are a lot of different cars on there, but it is mostly F-Body guys.

Hey guys, I'm back. Its been a while since I have had time to get on here. Hey josh and deepstage69, I am from the other side of you, around Bristol. You all should check out the thursday night street fights this year at Bristol. I hope to be runnin' my car with a new tranny and some new gears. May even opt for some street stickys to get some more to the ground. So everyone is going to the rod run in april, huh? We'll have to hook up b4 then cause last time I couldn't find anyone. I am hoping I can get off work for it. Anyway, Josh and Deepstage69, look me up if yall are up aroung Bristol any. You can check out my car on here to know what your looking for. Or shout me an email @ i8atang@yahoo.com. The rest of ya, Peace!

Sorry to jump on your post

Welcome to the Board. I am from just down the road in Blaine, TN. I was wondering if you guys would know anyone who installs SFC in our area. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :lala:

I got mine welded in at Car Care on Chapman Highway for like $30. If you go there, ask for Freddy.

If you want something closer to Blaine, there is a guy up the road from you in Rutledge at Doyle's Auto Parts (828-4141). Call and ask for Tony or Randy, they should be able to point you in the right direction.

They are both big into F-Bodies, and Tony is a moderator on a local board www.highperformancetoys.com he goes by GMRACIN as a handle.

The more of you guys that can make it, the merrier. I look forward to meeting you guys.

We should pick a place where we will all meet at the Rod Run in April. How about at one of the big wooden go-cart tracks?

Any Good Bone Yards in East TN

I have been to a few, but not many of them have any 3rd. Gens. Anyone know of any great Junk Yards, in the East TN area, that have a lot of 3rd. Gen Parts. I would prefer a place that lets you walk around, and pull your own. Thanks in advance...

hey man, i bought it at Tim Williams motors last april, he has a couple of thirdgens there.. i think mine is the one you saw . i love it man, and i'm doing my best to keep it in good condition. it's pretty much completely stock and i met the guy that 1st owned it. still has window sticker, and even the chevy tape cassette unopened! 89,000mi when i bought it. now it's pushin 94 i drive it to OR pretty much everyday, so i'm putting a lot of miles on it.
you'll probably see me driving around

(you should go by tim's sometime, he has a very nice collection, but he switches his cars around often, i think he has several places he sells them )

Hey forever3, sorry pal, but I ain't gonna be makin it. I think I posted in on the Rod Run thread, but I can't remember. But anyway, I've had something come up and I'm not gonna be able to go. I really hate it too considering I was looking so forward to it. I hope you guys/gals that get to go, have a great time. Stay safe and have a ball.

Eric
