I'm not in tampa, but down in Fort Myers.....

-jason

 

citrus springs right now but my car is in brandon

 

What part of tampa? I live in Plant City but work in Tampa.

 

live in haines city area so about an hr away or so.

 

St. Pete for me

 

BAAAAYYYY!!!!!!........................GO! BUCS!

 

go bucs, bulls and hell even thou I'm not a baseball fan. go rays. I'm like north tampa ish but I work at tia so... anyone daily drive there's? I don't, my 02 is my daily but my girl does drive her formula everywhere. we should post pics of something incase we see eachother out and about.

 

I daily drive mine but only come to tampa to go to work. Maybe we can setup a meet? Hooters sound good to anyone?? Won't be till after the 15th though.

 

im in tampa, Daily drive mine every day. I go to UT so im right downtown.

 

HOOTERS 301 and 60?.....or WINGHOUSE 301 and I-4?....301 and 60 has a parking lot in front of the deck where you can keep an eye on your car.....so I vote for that site

 

Yes but the winghouse has better food and hotter girls, imo. lol

 

I'm not a guy, but I'm in the Tampa area.

 

wow.. i thought i had found the only 3rd gen girl... good stuff.


if you sig is yours.. very nice.

i need to get some pics up.
----------


i do like wing house food better, chicken strips dallas hot ftw but the one on 301 and I4 is so damn packed all the time. parking fails.

 

I was seeing a 3rd gen girl before I moved back to Florida. Definately not an easy find. Especially one as good looking as this one and works on her own car. The car does look nice 85'_TRIBUTE.

Fri/Sat is when parking fails the later you get there. GEKKO, when do you think you'll be picking up the black beauty? Maybe we could do it that day, we could see both of your cars. I work mon-fri til 3:45pm. If we were to do this friday, I could possibly try to get there early and get a table.

 

Sadly, I don't have one yet... the one in my sig was my dad's old Trans Am, it was stolen and wrecked around this time in (I believe) 2000... I miss it a lot, it was suppose to be mine. So I've decided when I get enough money and a place to store it, I'll get my own, my tribute.

 

i`m going to pick it up thursday.....and my present girlfriend will be soooo pissed at me for spending the money........but I can`t stand not driving it once in a while so.......pay rent? or pick up car?........

 

There are a few female f-body fanatics out there!!!

Sara Lou

 

Few and far between Maddam Lou

 

I ended up paying the rent rather than picking up the car.....might pick it up next week though...things are so slow right now that it`s hard to budget everything you want to get done in a month.....but I still keep pluggin` along......

 

Wise choice to pay rent instead.

How about Friday the 19th...will that be a problem for anyone?

Being the 301/I-4 is so packed, the Hooters on 301/60 sounds good to me. Last I went, about 2-3years ago they had some good lookin' girls if that's what your going for...don't know about now. If anyone wants to exchange numbers, just send me a PM.

 

Sorry, my brother's getting married on the 19th, what about this Friday, the 12th?

 

i need to find one near west palm beach....id love for my 1st gf to be a 3rdgen girl

even just a friend

 

I could manage the 12th. Anyone else for this friday?

.............................Piece of advice, you don't really need one that is that understanding for your 1st. Just make sure you lay your pipe down. Then later, when your ready to settle down, find what you're looking for.

 

Anyone else?

 

id be down for this weekend if i had my car, its in the shop nursing a bent axle. Should be up and running in a week and a half.

 

Bent axle...what did you jump or hit?

Probably need to plan something a couple weeks in advance.

 

wat time and how far is it from west palm beach

 

You are lookin' at a 3 to 31/2 hour drive each way. So 6-7hours of driving round trip. Unless your willing to spend the gas money and time to chill out for a few hours. I'd wait for a big meet to happen and maybe we could go to a more centralized location.

 

4 hours.

 

i work Fridays till 730pm, so if i were to meet up at wing house, 8ish would be the earliest.


we could do it, but i think setting something up for a week or 2 from now mite better better for most people. be cool to get together thou.

 

did you bend the axle housing? if its just an axle, i may have one.

 

ooooh dang never mind lol

 

Jim..how the hell are you? I thought you moved to San Antonio?

Where do you work in Tampa? I work downtown. Maybe we could meet up for lunch and catch up. I haven't seen you in .. 3+ years now?

 

What's up Fred? I didn't know you still lerked around these boards. I got back a little over a month ago from San Antonio. I work right off I-4 and MLK. My lunches are only 45min so I doubt i'd have enough time...I get off work at 3:45 everyday so anytime after that, or even weekends i'm off. You still live up in north Tampa? I might be in that area off 56 thursday around 6pm or so attending a wedding rehearsal, but after that i'm free.

 

Tampa here also,,,

 

56th street? I'm still at USF (almost done) but I get off of work at 3pm, and I have class from 4-5:50pm on Monday-Thursday. If you're in Temple Terrace thursday, we could get a few beers when you get out and catch up.

 

No 56, where it intersects with Wesley Chapel Blvd and turns into 54. It's not too far from there. A few beers sounds good to me.

 

do you drive your 3rdgen? any chance its a blue iroc?

 

I don`t know where you got that, but I want it...please pm me with a link to that signature...it`s awesome avatar?

 

I bent the axle, axle housing is fine. I busted my posi when i went to the track( i had a 9 bolt) so this summers project was a 4th gen rear, little did i know, i finished it with a week left before i drove from NH to Tampa, and all i heard was a light squeak, and it got louder and louder. Couldnt figure it our for the life of me, come to find out its a bent axle. I didnt jump a curb or anything, just normal driving so its safe to assume the rear was sold to me with a bent axle, nothing i can do about it now lol. I found one from a member on here actually so i should be back on the road in a week or two.

 

85_Tribute and I went to the Winghouse thursday evening on I-4/301. and it was pretty packed then. Hardly any parking spots either. I'll check out other locations.

 

Yeah, I'm afraid if you're even lucky enough to get there early and get a space, by the time you go to leave, they'll be a bunch of cars, not in parking spaces blocking the way.

 

damn that does suck..


glad you found one thou, i also have a 4th gen rear in my 3rd gen. so good luck man.

 

Clearwater / Largo area...

My ride has been garaged for a while, waiting on a custom front bumper, getting interior seat kit soon, new speakers to start stereo install, got all the Second Skin Audio done... So someday (though not soon) I wouldn't mind meeting up...

Alright, anyone up for doing something on the 10th of oct? Doesn't have to be a wing place, any suggestion is good. I rather be able to park somewhere and eat good than TRY to find parking at a wing restaurant.
As long as they have beer and good food, i'll be set.

 

the 10th sounds good to me....it`s a friday

 

I'm up for it! And I'll be 21 then, yay beer!!

 

if I see your car at the auctions, i`m going to buy it

 

Sorry, but my car won't be at the auctions, and even if it were, I don't think you'd want it... cause it's not the car in my sig.
