Great turnout, even with the threatening weather. Turned to be a nice day. Great fun, nice meeting new people and seeing old friends.
More pictures to come.

Re: 3rdGen Expo Picture Thread 2016
How often do you see two low mile, white, 5 speed IROC-Z convertibles next to each other?
BTW, note the head light pockets. One retains the original "30 degree" black finish and the other has been glossed up from years of wiping. I intend to restore the head light pockets on my other '89 and '85 to that original "30 degree" finish.

Re: 3rdGen Expo Picture Thread 2016
I split the difference both ways so I only had to drive 400miles per day. It was over 1600 miles round trip. If you're lucky and don't hit traffic I'd say it's about a 12-13 hour drive straight through. I wanted to put some miles on the car so I skipped the Fbody Gathering. I'd say 30 or more cars at this show but I liked the casual atmosphere, focus on 3rd gens, and it only being 9-2pm.

Re: 3rdGen Expo Picture Thread 2016
Nice turn out and those are some great looking third gens! Next year I shouldn't have an excuse not to go. This year the IROC was still in too many pieces and I wanted to get as much done this last weekend as I could possibly do to it. I really wanted to go this year, but not without my thirdgen

I talked to a bunch of guys Saturday, who came, but left their 3rd gens at home, because they were afraid of rain.

Re: 3rdGen Expo Picture Thread 2016
I totally understand that. I have a 2nd gen I won't take in the rain, but my 3rd gen will be drivin in the rain. At least till it gets alot further along in its build. I'll certainly be there next year.
