Re: Arizona Roll Call!
I'm in North Phoenix. I haven't been all about attending anything with my car until recently because of the way it looked. Since I have painted it, I have been wanting to go to car shows, but I keep having issues with other vehicles I own or life in general. But I enjoy seeing other people's projects because it's cool to see a car progress into something awesome. I am pretty much always willing to meet up and talk 3rd gens or help somebody out if needed in the area.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
If you are going to be living in the Phoenix area, I don't see much action for people in this area. Junkyards right now are actually kind of plentiful with third gens, and occasionally you will see another third gen on the street (maybe even my 88 or my 87 iroc).

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Tax return is a good time to sell cars, but this is the start of vert season. As for price Iroc vert maybe. Not sure if the salvage title will hurt it much or not.
It looks like a carbon fiber wrap, but I agree the snow bird would rather have a shinny red hood.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Salvage title definitely hurts the resale value. But it will sell easier once the temperature goes down a few more degrees and people start thinking a convertible would be nice to have.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Hey everyone, my name is Cal. I have been a long time member but have basically been absent for quite awhile. Used to be because of the Army but I have been retired now for 2 years. Spent last year at UTI and this year Im going through MCC to go to ASU. I still have the same 89 Firebird I first posted so many years ago. I havent driven her since 2006 so.... I really don't think she will be ready for the cruise. I live in Mesa now and don't plan on leaving.

I had an 87 iroc I was restoring but got rid of it because I didnt have the time for it. I still have my 88, the blue one in my Sig (or at least it should be). I have been trying to sell it off and on but nobody will even come look at it. Market just isnt good for them now. Since I wont really get much for it since I would have to drop it super low to sell it, I'm probably just keeping it now. Going to plan an LS swap for it most likely.
I went to SCC for a little over a year before transferring to GCU and I'm in my last year, should graduate by Christmas.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Hey there. I am about to move from North Phoenix to Mesa, Mckellips and Gilbert road to be exact. Thank you for your service by the way. I was prior Navy, I was a helo mechanic. I have been out a little over 3 years and from Fountain Hills originally and moved back to the valley when I got out.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
im certainly not the best mechanic in the world but I do alright. My best friend who has a mechanical engineering degree is who I do a lot of work with. He swapped a 7.3 power stroke into his 96 bronco and about to do an engine swap on his 91 camaro. Anything I don't know, I usually find out from him. I'm terrible with electrical. I'm trying to learn so maybe one day I will take you up on that!

AmpleUnicorn88, sounds like you have everything well at hand. You could always drop by to have a beer and bullshit if you ever need a break from everything.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Everyone moving to Mesa? I live in east Mesa, should have my car out running around in a couple weeks. I still need to get a replacement title to get it registered. Hope to get it cleaned up for some pics this weekend. A couple of pics from a couple weeks ago

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
I work in Fountain Hills as well as have family there, so where I'm moving in Mesa is perfect. It also allows me to potentially look for another job as well.
Great looking car though. Would love to see that thing in person one day.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Not everyone lives in Mesa. We live in the far NW valley with a few toys.
This one we campaign nationally. Picture is from MidWest MuscleCar Challenge 2016 at Putnam Park, IN from the roadcourse portion of the event.
This one is the drag car we built first. Procharger equipped SBC. It will get revamped for better handling and to change up the power curve to something more reasonable for events other than just straight line.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Hot damn that is nice! Much nicer than my 88. My 88 looks good in pictures, but when you see it in person, you can tell it's an amateur paint job. I bounced around many projects, like the 87 iroc I was going to build but then abandoned, then the 97 ram I was working on and still own, but bought just so I had a truck until I could save up to buy something I really wanted (a diesel) and then 2 days before Christmas I bought a 97 F250 with a powerstroke. So I have basically neglected the camaro a lot so I'm hoping after the move I can sell the dodge and start to mess with my camaro some more.

When are you moving to Mesa?
Since you're from Fountain Hills, I heard there is a car show this weekend. Have you ever been, is it worth going to?

Both of your thirdgens are awesome. I think I saw an article on the firebird, do you have a link to a build thread on the camaro?

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Changing the fuel pump is a lot of work. You can drop the tank, I did this on my Iroc. Or you can cut a trap door , I did this on my 4th gen T/A. It worked out on the T/A because I changed it again a few years later. Interior is easy, finding nice replacement interior is not.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
Nice vette! My car is Meduim orange metallic. It is the original color from 1988. One year only on thirdgens and only about 3,000 made. GM reintroduced the color on 4 gen ls1 camaro's and vettes but called it Sunset orange. If we put my car and your vette next to each other you would see it's the same color. The paint mix is the same also and I use sunset orange touch up paint on my car.
We should do the cars and coffee meetup some it.

I would like to get some pics of the vette next to your car. I go to cars and coffee every now and then, that show has gotten huge. Let me know when you are going and we'll cruise out there.

Re: Arizona Roll Call!
There isn't a build thread on the Camaro though. We finished building it 7 years ago before the trend happened around writing build threads. We chronicled most of the GTA build and competition on Facebook though.
