Re: Florida thirdgens
you will know my t/a's if you are behind them. both have sequential turn signals. you know when the light scroll across. happens when you hit the brake too. have to see about the destination daytona thing. might be able to swing one.

Re: Florida thirdgens
l also have sequential tail lights. They drive people crazy that are behind me at a stop light.
That place in daytona has food and large parking lot.
I wont go near there when the bike things are going on.
It should be easy for everyone to get to being off I95.

Re: Florida thirdgens
Now imagine if everyone in this thread posted on http://www.fl-thirdgen.org/
Meets might be easier to coordinate rather than trying to dig through this big thread
Be nice to meet up with other local people

Re: Florida thirdgens
No worries, I'm in Miami. I'm military so I move all the time but I still have another year and a half here. I'd be glad to meet up. I am going to the Doral car show tomorrow at 11. I won't have my ride because I just took the TPI off to put on a fuel regulator and to fix the oil pressure gauge.

Re: Florida thirdgens
hola~!
New to FL... spent some time here as a kid in Dunnellon, in North Central FL, am now in Sarasota.
I have a bone stock 1991 Camaro RS Convertible with the LO3, automatic.
He is a beater.. only paid $900 for it in AZ, so it is rust free, and of course the stock top is dry rotted :O
Looking to make some Camaro buddies to wrench with in the area... fishing and golf are always good too

Re: Florida thirdgens
well thats cool, i just moved here not too long ago and hey, i finally got my 3rd gen shipped here 
i live in jacksonville, right next to the orange park area pretty much.
if any of ya guys live out here also, give me a holler. im hoping theres quite a bit because theres not a day that goes by that i see at least 3 3rd gen's ALONE, just as im cruising around or going to work.
we should all get together and have meets, just 3rd gens or even a mixture of just domestic's would be pretty cool also.

Re: Florida thirdgens
I came from south florida and have not done any cruising in the 4 years I'm here. From what I see its more around orlando area. I could be just missing them! I would like to get a bunch of people together and cruise. In south florida we had meets everywhere every week. I dont want to drive 2 hours each way and cruise another 2 kinda takes the fun out of it. And my TA really eats gas 13.4 hwy mpg. I'm game if we can spark something up here.

Re: Florida thirdgens
Hey guys I just registered to the site and I'm in Palm Coast (30 min north of Daytona Beach. I'm getting my first third gen in a few weeks and am working on gettin' ready to restore her. Shes an 87 IROC with a 305 (currently). Going BB with this cammy. I'm thinking 427 or 454 not 100% sure yet I want the 454 but it requires more mods than the 427. I did alot of research on the project and I know I can do it. Anyways it seems like we have a good group of FL third gen owners.
