Looking to network and meet new friends

Hello all,
Im Wolf outta San Diego. I’m working on a 1987 Camaro. I’m the third owner and it’s 95% stock (new radiator and heater core). I want to know more about cars in general but this is my favorite make and model so especially this one. I had one 10 years ago and didn’t go the distance because I didn’t want to put in the time, effort or money and I lost that car. I didn’t want one until I felt I could dedicate myself to it. Two years ago I bought my build from a really cool old dude who sold it to me cheaper because I mentioned it’s going to be my redemption build. This build will become my car! Im looking for cool people to meet talk about our cars and honestly learn about them and their experiences. Give a shoutout who you are, where you from and what you have. Everyone is welcome. Cheers 🍻
p.s.
I’ve always loved 3rd Gen Camaros. I’m glad that there is a such a strong community for such an underrated car.

Hey Wolf,

James herein Temecula, Ca. Currently have a 23K mile 82 Z28 and an 88 Corvette convertible. Just sold my 87 IROC. PM me if you want to meet up somewhere in SoCal.

Re: Looking to network and meet new friends

I'm in San Diego. I own an 82 Trans Am that's rusting away somewhere. When all this is over I'd be happy to get together and talk shop. Take care, be safe.

Re: Looking to network and meet new friends

Welcome to the board. This is one of the few areas that can help. If something goes wrong in your car, it is more than likely more been multiple answers to it, some clear, some not. But ask away and also post your results cause it might end up helping someone down the road.

It was based off the Protofab Camaros that raced in the late 80s Trans Am series.
