Does anybody know of decent shop or person that fix gears? Preferably in the Milwaukee area. I recently put a "rebuilt" rear end in and now it howls...

 

all i have are the interior plastics. if youve seen a pic of my car then you'd know they are in great shape

 

Those of you in Wisconsin, me and some buddies just opened up a car club for South eastern wisconsin mainly, you may be located anywhere really. We are just trying to get some meets and cruises together. If you wanna meet some cool car people check this out. http://teamsketchball.net

 

thats a great idea, but we need a F-Body group not a ***** AND F-Body group...it would feel very weird to me cruisin next to my enemy LOL!

 

No enemies at sketchball, just friends!

 

I know of many "ricers" that would put your car to shame Firebug.

 

Our group basicly just wants to show that you dont need to bash others, its just a club for people who likes cars.

 

Just sayin hey from Little Chute! Im new to TGO and I've got a 91 RS with a 350

 

Welcome, Little Chute isnt that far from me, Im in Appleton.

 

your far from me, im in brookfield

 

from Ashland WI, Anybody close to Ashland WI?

 

I was just going to post on here if anyone was from northern WI i went through the whole thread and not a single person!
My names mason, i live by Hurley, I have a 89 firebird formula 305

 

Im From Wis Rapids Also!!!!!!

 

Nice dude, there are a few third gens running around town and in the area but, i never a have tried to organized a met or nothing..... yet, maybe we should get something going

 

I'm in WI but don't have a 3rd gen, but a car that used the TPI setup off a 87' Trans Am that I parted out (sorry, it was pretty rusty though). My cars use/used many other 3rd gen parts as well (swaybar, brakes, shifter handle, wheels, fans, belt setup, radiator, etc.) Thanks to GM for easy parts interchangability between cars .

I can't help but notice it's been a few years since the original post. Organizing stuff can suck sometimes but can be rewarding too. If people want to get together I'd say it's best to just pick a date well in advance and go with it. Just a suggestion. Another post suggesting a cruise would be a good way to start, cheap/free at least.

 

hey im jeremiah.i live by wis rapids

 

I'm Jason and I'm in Lacrosse WI

Hey, Racine checking in. My name is Jay. I just picked up my first camaro a week ago.

 

Hey Paul, what's your last name? I'm from Waupun too but I live in Fond du Lac now.

 

Hey... Black Creek is in the HIZZZZOOOUSE!!!!

<------- 1987 Z28 here... Use to have an all primer grey 1987 LT... from 1999 until 2004, I ran it every Saturday at WIR (for those of you from the appleton area, you COULDN'T miss it). For 2005, I ran my current Z, but towards the end of '05, I stopped racing it. Now, once in a blue moon, I bring it down there to scare the ricers and rustangs, but lately been running the 2 wheel kind at WIR and usually only when RSD is happenin'. I have on occasion, been known to venture down to Da Grove, but at all most a 3 hr trip there... it's a haul. I've had it at a couple of car shows here n there, took a couple of trophies, but it's really nothing to look at. Just something I put together to have fun with.

 

Hello Wisconsin, From Appleton here. Got a 85 IROC under construction, son has a nice 88 TA and I have a 2nd Gen Rally Sport as well.

 

Hello fellas! I see lots of people from Appleton, same here!!

 

any one from the milwaukee or racine/kenosha area on here?

 

brookfield here

 

cool. you ever go to the car shows at the solid gold mcdonolds on 76th street?

 

Hey I'm from Cudahy, right by Milwaukee!

 

North side of Kenosha here...near KR...

 

Combined Locks here.

 

I am in Claedonia, just south of Oak Creek. I am on the Island of Guam right now for work. 86 degrees for highs and 76 for lows at night. This weather is making me miss the summer crusies and car shows. Can't wait to get the 92 RS out of storage. I was looking at the forcast for back home.. Cold and rain...I hope that will improve a little when I get back in April. I am jelous of the guys on this forum that are able to keep thier cars out year round!

 

yeah the weather is pretty nesty here now. i hope that all ends sooner then later. wich shows do you hit up mostly?

 

I go to Gorgies Porgies on aturdays. I also try to get to The cruise night at Gus's Cantina in Franklin. That one was getting huge by the end of the season last year. It was held on Wednsdays same night as the Solid Gold one. Larger parkig area though....

 

i didnt know there was a carshow at gus's. it sounds cool im gonna have to head out there this year. didnt make it to gorgies porgies last summer but its been cool wen i was there. have you been to the mcdonalds on hwy 20 in racine? they have a car show on thursdays thats decent. me and my budy took his 87 fiero there a few times.

 

Gus's Cantina is probly the biggest one around that goes every week. Apparently there was some disagreements with the management at the solid gold Mcdonalds so most of the cars moved to Gus's. I haven't been to the Mcdonalds on hwy 20. I did not know that there was a show there. I will keep that in the back of my head though for this summer.

 

Checking in.

I'm in Grantsburg, it would be a miracle if anyone were close by

 

just looked at a map. thats a ways up there!

 

Eh, not so much "up there" as way "out there"

 

Ashland WI. But thats a 2 1/2 hour drive from Grantsburg

I'm about 30 miles from the most northern part of Wisconsin

 

You guys up in Ashland are why I hesitate to describe Grantsburg as "up there"

 

And guess what, i live that 30 miles away at the most northern part of wisconsin

 

Anyone in the LaCrosse Area?

 

I'm about 30 miles away from there but my car is just a rolling chassis at the moment...

 

Really? What city?

 

De Soto; occasionally we're on the map

 

Yep its out there.

 

Used to live in Genoa for a bit. If you are interested in meeting up let me know. Its hard to find 3rd gen people.

 

I'll do that, maybe we can hit some car shows or swap meets sometime

 

Hello I am from LaCrosse I purchased(rescued from Iowa) a 1991 Camero Rs for my son and we are slowly fixing her up. Has been fun driving it. Getting a new clutch and headers installed next week. What do you all think about having raised white letter BF goodrich Radial TA for tires?

 

i have raised white letter Tiger Paw tires on my firebird with the non-ws6 gold rims and it looks great...i am going to upgrade to bfgoodrich soon though, tiger paws arent really good for much after you do about 25 burnouts.

 

Checking in.. Green Bay. 85 IROC 383 HSR.
