The Bowtie club is hosting a Chevy event at Old Town on 4/28. It would be great if we could pull together and put on a strong showing. So come on you central FL 3GOers! Let's dominate Old Town! Any 3GOers that show up and notify me in advance that are over 21 get a free beer (or two, or three, depending on #'s!). Seriously. Under 21 gets a free soda or maybe an ice cream , or maybe a ticket for that slingshot thing that makes men scream like schoolgirls. That might be fun....

Now let's get those 20+ year old F-Bodies roaring and ready to roll! Woo!

Nobody?


Well, more beer for me then I guess!

 

Free beer??? I'm down!!!

...except that's the day of my civil marriage party...so I have to pass.

 

you drive a hard bargain MadCelt. my f-bodies arent worth putting in a show, but me and the wife go to quit a few shows every year. nothing like hanging out with some chevy family!

 

I may be working (Saturdays are a big deal at The Depot), But if I'm not, I'll be there. Either way I'm 20 so no worries

 

That doesn't happen to be you in you avatar picture is it? I have a friend who is from Lakeland but lives in Corpus Christi, TX and he looks just like Farva from Super Troopers...very similar to your avatar picture. He also works at Home Depot.

 

Awwww. Marriage parties are MUCH more fun when they are uncivil!! :-)

Congrats?

 

Damn why are these get togethers always so far away... I will be in Daytona from the 22nd thru 31st.

 

id go but nither of my 3rd gens are ready for meets (firebird wouldent make it that far, and my camaro's paint condition would be laughed at)

 

I think Daytona would be a great place to pull in from orlando to jacksonville...

 

Unfortunately, that's just a guy from the newest Dukes of Hazzard movie. He wears the armadillo armor helmet to keep the CIA from reading his mind. I just thought it went well with my user name as well as my goofy perdonality. Lol

 

Thank you for the congrats. don't let the name fool you...my kegerater will have a full keg on tap, pool will be clean, and plenty of corn hole.

 

Being its a Chevy event, u think us trans am owners would be welcome? I would be willing to make the drive up to hang out for the day. The GTA hasn't been out of town in a while.

 

Good point, I guess its a good thing I will be in my Tahoe then

 

Neither are mine, but I don't care, LOL. Well, after dark I DO have LEDs in the engine bay of the Z28 that lights up under the fuel rails, looks awesome, but that's about it... :-)

 

I shot them an email.... will forward the answer to you when I get their reply.

 

I will be there!

 

I am down

 

Heck so far it looks like yoiu guys won't be breaking my bank account. I may even be able to afford 2 beers each at this rate!

 

For the 'Bird folks...

The show is for Chevys only, however the TA guys can park in trophy row with the regular Saturday pre-1975 cars. They will be just around the corner from us. Or they can park with you in the show but not register for trophies or door prizes. We will find some place safe for them, not in with the general population.

I'm down!

 

Sounds good I should be town on that date, if I am I'm there

 

Looks like we may have a decent group going! Now, I just have to paint my cars before 4/28 so as not to embarass myself too badly. Who's helping? Nobody? Not even for access to my garage fridge full of beer?

 

I will help you bro! like no kidding, but only if we can paint mine as well.
I'm in the same boat, the clear coat is just about gone and the red is starting to chip.

 

Also we should definitely allow the bird to be mixed in with the camaros, we all know that they are really the same car so what does it really matter. We should also do it in Daytona Beach, nice place, like to go back.

 

This is a 'Chevy' event so we won't be the only ones there... the organizers are cool with 'birds coming along, and they can join in and park with us, they just won't be eligible for awards or prizes. So yes, 'birds are most(ly) welcome!

 

Not a problem. Just bring your materials! I have a cheapo gun, haven't used it yet, I'll testing it out over the weekend to see how it shoots, I may opt to get a better gun if it's crap. Anyway, if you are serious PM me on this so we don't hijack the thread. It's too bad I don't have a better garage, I'd say let's have a paint party!

 

Ok cool, don't really care about rewards, just their for the community experience. I'll be there in my GTA!

 

Looks like we'll have a decent little group showing up!

Anyone that's interested, I'll probably be hitting there Friday evening too and getting a room for Friday night, and join in on the Friday night cruise.

Anyhoo, looking forward to meeting ya'all and hanging out with some 3GOers!

 

I'm definitely coming up. What time are we meeting up?

 

I guess it formally begins at 1PM. What about gathering nearby, say at the burger king next door, then we all take the short ride to Old Town together? Bunch 3GOers all pulling in at once sounds cool (to me!) and pretty much ensures we'll be parked as a group. All the easier to gather everyone together for the free beer!

We can stay until the cruise at 8:30 PM even though the show ends at 5, but we are too 'new' so we can't cruise, no biggie, you just drive the loop down Main Street anyway. It IS fun so I will be there Friday night, all 'muscle' cars, any year, can cruise friday night. Anyone wants to join me let me know. The hotel there the rooms are reasonable, and pretty much 2BR setups (living room area with a pullout sofa and a murphy bed, and then a bedroom with a full, or was it two full beds? and a kitchen). So if anyone wants to share a room, that's cool, but hands off my wife

The hotel there is also convenient if anyone decides to try to down one of those 100 oz beers... and no, I ain't buyin' those.
Let me know what everyone wants to do!

 

So 12 noon at burger king sound good to meet up?

 

Sounds good to me! Anyone else?

 

OK so here's a tentative list so far...

TGK7203 - ?
Termanalor117 ('bird) - confirmed
aaa"hotrod"aaa ('bird) - confirmed
Steel Armadillo - ?
ridecool - confirmed
TallTim - confirmed
Me and the wifey poo (both cars) - confirmed

I'm sending PM's to try to get confirms. Might try to set up a special something something if I can work it out. I should get a 3GO banner!! Hehe.

 

interested. Just heard about it, will confirm asap.

 

Just checking are we still on for 12pm at Burger King, Old Town?

 

Yup yup!

 

OK I'm in, will be coming up with hotrod but I'll be arriving before him cuz he only has a 305 ;-)

 

LOL! For your sake I hope it's not with a string of state troopers and a helo in tow...

 

Which... *cough* .... outpulled your 350 on the dyno... *cough*

Is that shocked, dissappointed, look gone from your face yet? :-)

Had a great time guys. Too bad more people didn't show!

 

It was definitely fun. Even my Ford buddy had fun around all the Chevy's. Gotta meet up there on a Friday night one weekend to do the cruise.

 

So you and Tater made it home OK? Cool.

How did the rest of the night go? Kelly keep you guys entertained?

For the board, AAA and his buddy were nicknamed "Tater" and "Salad" by Kelly Fromme, the guy raffling off the Veteran 1 Gen 5. Kelly kept us entertained after the show was over. Quite a character.

April's Z died on the 417 on the way home. Went back out today and got it home. Turned out to be the ICM. The road ranger dude pulled up while I was standing there with the HSR plenum off and the Dizzy in pieces, he says "I'm not going to be much help am I?" LOL.

 

That sucks about her car. Good that u got it fixed. Ha ha with the tater salad thing. My pontiac made it home without any problems.

 

Glad to hear it. Just wait till you have 278,000 miles on it (A Pontiac with over a quarter million miles... as if, LOL). :-)

Tater Salad will live forever!!!

 

Kelly put the parking lot prank video up on FB.
