I'm a 68W at Hood, coming back to that side of the country. I was at Stewart, loved the area, but wanted to get to Hunter. so I did 2 years in 1st Cav and now I'm on my way back in a few months. I have family in Jacksonville and Atlanta, so it's perfect for me.

Re: Florida thirdgens
Those wheels really go with the car, nice touch...
I figured I'd re-register since I'm a Lakeland resident with another firebird in the yard hehehe.
Start looking for a red 89 T-Top that drives too fast running around I-4...

That's the only thing I hate about going to the junk yard, I'm always seeing the potential of those cars and some of them look better than mine lol

Re: Florida thirdgens
Newbie here 
Just moved back to the Orlando area (Oviedo) after a few years out of state... and recently got my first Camaro, a '91 Z28 305 TPI hard top. Fun! As soon as we get more settled I plan to pick up another Gen 3, rolling chassis to play with, maybe another Z28 but with T's, who knows. Having a fun time working on the one we have, but the woman drives it more than I, and she breaks it a lot...
So far, she's driven it into my van (minor), the Alt/Pwr steering bracket broke, EGR code (bad gasket), etc...
Thinking about hooking up with the Central Florida Camaro Club... any other good clubs around for Gen 3ers? Also toying with the idea of doing some Wednsday night cruises at Old Town, anyone done that?

Re: Florida thirdgens
I'm watching this thread, not sure if I can make it or not, but considering it.. I just got my 86 TA back on the road after storing it for years.. Still looks like crap, and can't afford to do anything about that this year, but runs good.
I live between Jacksonville and Saint Augustine.

Re: Florida thirdgens
I just sold mine on craigslist for 200.00. The guy I sold it to said he was going to sell it for parts. I was hoping he'd changed his mind and decided to rebuild it. Oh well. Wishful thinking on my part
