Re: PIttsburgh
I'm gonna be there, and maybe you guys can hear my possessed car in person.

It does that at random with no power on.

Re: PIttsburgh
hmm thats possible. I got home at 2:30 yesterday, didnt even go outside. My gf came over a little after 9 and she said it made the noise as she walked by... so 6.5 hours later. One of these days I'm gonna have to poke around underneath.
Anyone going to Irwin today?

Re: PIttsburgh

Re: PIttsburgh
On a whim today i decided i might want to trade my project Iroc for a Project 85-91 TA/GTA/Formula. Anyone out there know of a rust free hardtop one? Engine/tranny dont matter, and that includes NO engine and tranny (if thats the case i may actually sell my grand am and have 2 fbodies). I always kinda liked the birds better.

Re: PIttsburgh

Re: PIttsburgh
got driver side subframe connector in today. Still some spots i may weld up more but its holding so far.
Gonna finish up the passenger side tomorrow. Gonna rain so no track day. Hopefully friday it clears out and i can go but i'll probly have a hockey game

Re: PIttsburgh
did you have your car lowered with your 5 stars on?

Re: PIttsburgh
yeah it always had a prokit on it. front is slammed but rear sits nicely. with the 26 inch tires now it fills the wheel well up nicely
i dont like how the fronts are way tucked in. 15x4 i think it is, but its not spec'd right for these cars. I may go get 1 inch spacers

Re: PIttsburgh
omg thats crazy!
On a side note, went to the Irwin show today, and not ONE single thirdgen firebird/ta. What the heck guys?!?!?! I guess I cant say much, cause mine wasnt there either.

Re: PIttsburgh
I wanted to go but it looked like nobody was going to be there and I ended up helping a friend out most of the day anyway. If the weather looks good maybe I can make it this saturday.

Re: PIttsburgh
haha only the hood is flat black. The rest is primer gray. But yeah, I'm all for seeing another flat car. Once we get kicked out we could head down to Irwin.

Re: PIttsburgh
I may or may not be able to make it this Saturday. An old friend has basically told me he's dropping by, so I'm gonna see if I can con him into going. Not a thirdgenner, but hes got a Marauder. I'll post up as I find out details.

Re: PIttsburgh
Where we meeting?? I don't have too much gas and Irwin was a bit of a cruise (just short of an hour), plus i was just there yesterday to pick up 2 new fenders, so i don't really feel like going over there again
