Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
Dave /Bandit....my brother and I do alot of 3G stuff, plus others if they interest us. We'll be working on a 83Z28 crossfire/Auto swap...putting in a ZZ4/T-5 set-up for a fellow member in the weeks to come(April) stop by to see our progress. I'm sure we can help you with something. My main reason for this thread was to get us 3g LongIslanders together once in awhile...we could meet at the shop(in bohemia).....My Brother is on Vacation til the Weekend, lucky dog( so no one will answer the phone). I can always(almost) be reached on my cell at 516 316-6451 Hope to talk and see you soon. Dean

Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
hey babycakes, i joined lifba online a while back, i went to the car show at belmont racetrack last weekend and met a few of them. i too will be going to the meeting, only thing is there is almost no thirdgens. all ls1 cars.. i think we need a separate club..
#15
Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
I have thought about that but the people are awsome.... we joined a year ago and some of our best friends are in there. We'll both be at the meeting. Some guys have both 3rd and 4th gens and just usually bring their 4th gens. We just have to find more 3rd gens.

Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
Anybody go to Bellmore train station on friday nights? I live near there and would meet up to park with some other third gens. I was there last friday but don't go every week. If anyone was there mine was the silver 86 parked under the train next to my friends 2004 Commemorative Z06.
Charged350, where's the shop in Farmingdale? I work in Farmingdale too but I don't usually drive the camaro to work, once in awhile though.

Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
Looks like the weather killed it for tonight. I usually get there between 7-8 for next time.
I know people go to Nathans in Oceanside on wednesday nights but I haven't been there in years. Someone was also handing out flyers at Bellmore a few weeks ago about some thing in Oyster Bay on main street I think. I'll have to ask my friend for more info as he has the flyer. A big meet happens every sunday morning at Captree which now may be moving to the OBI lot since they are going to start charging for parking. I haven't made it to that in years either, I'm too lazy to get up at 6am to go. If you get there later then 8 you can forget about getting a spot.

Thursday: ??? I thought there was something...
Friday nights: Bellmore train station
Saturday nights: Ruby tuesdays/ Kohls lot in Deer park
Sunday morning: OBI lot
Tues night: bald hill

Bellmore should be packed out tonight with this great weather. I'm going to try and get there about 7-7:30 latest and even then I hope I can get a decent spot. If anyone sees my car feel free to say what's up.

Re: LOOKING FOR 3RD Gen LONG ISLANDERS
whats up everyone, I just wanted to mention that i stopped by the deer park car show in the applebees parking lot last night, and was astonished at the amount of cars there. I wasnt expecting too much based on some of the threads i read, but there were alot of old school muscle cars there and nice ones at that. There werent a lot of kids there either, it seemed more like an adult/older crowd with show quality cars. I just wanted to bring it up to everyone, and suggest checking it out if you get a chance.

I'm going to be up at Oyster Bay this Tuesday, weather permitting, with the Trans Am...
I'm usually over at Oyster Bay on Tues, Oakdale on Thurs, occasionally Bellmore on Fri's, and usually Kohls on Saturdays. I've also been down to OBI fairly regularly on Sun's... if I'm not in the TA, I'm usually in a Light Pewter Metallic 2002 Z28 with chrome ZR1's...
