-
I'm from South Colonie Just 10mins outside of Albany NY and i'm a proud owner of a 88' IrocZ 350tpi

Fire it up

 

im in Schenectady. still working on my project 1990 rs having problems with the oil sending unit... im pretty sure ive seen your camaro around it looks familiar.

 

Rochester NY here.

 

Nice to hear someone is local around here.
-
and tbh o.O i dnt think it's possible you've seen my car unless you were out during that giant snow storm dec 2nd lol. I slapped my jeep's plates on it and drove it down windham mountain slipping and sliding all over the place going down and got it home after buying it for 3grand. Otherthan that it hasn't left my driveway >.>

I havn't registered it yet until i can find a job hehe.

What part of schenectady anyways? maybe you have seen it in the driveway lol, i live off of albany street. I do recall seeing a black 3rd gen camaro on the side of a house further down from me.

 

I'm from Olivebridge NY, which is like 20-25 minutes west of Kingston NY, probably 1 hour to 1-1/2 hours south of Albany, and I have a 1992 Formula 350. I have a friend who lives in West Hurley, right next to Woodstock, who has an 87 Firebird with a 305 TBI.

 

Vliet here. Do you run at Lebanon Valley at all?

 

aloha

 

South Colonie (Village) here.

 

Syracuse here!

 

Binghamton, what up?

 

Endicott here!!

 

where abouts in SC. I've never seen a blue third gen around and i've always lived here. i'm off of albany street.

 

Watertown Here,... The true Upstate NY...

 

Massena Here,... The real Upstate NY.

Just wondering why people from albany and syracuse and other areas in southern NY are considering them selves as Upstate NY.

Thread Title should read who's in New York!!!!

 

LOL!..........You guys are in NORTHERN NY! Syracuse is usually called Central NY.

But whats funny the NYC and downstate folks call Poughkeepsie/Albany "upstate NY".

I have a summer place in Alexandria Bay BTW.....................
Maybe see ya'all soon for a beer eh?

 

Alexandria is a Nice place in the summer. I go a couple times a summer take the family to play mini put at the Canadia, Us course best one in the area. Massena is about an hour and a half North of there. Right on the Canadia border.

lol hour and a half to play mini golf.

 

I couldn't believe it when someone from Westchester told me they were from Upstate NY.. I didn't even know where that was until I found it on the map accidentally. I would consider Albany and SYR the center line for NY. I think GOV Patterson should split the state into Northern NY and South NY and let the cess-pool support itself. All the Power generated from Upstate, Food, and other stuff comes from us to support the Money Hungry Cess-Pool in NYC..

 

Upstate, at least as far as I am concerned, is anything outside of Long Island/NYC...

 

+1

 

Rochester NY here, can't wait till Thursday/Friday time to go get plates!

 

Upstate New York is the region of New York State north of the core of the New York metropolitan area. The term Upstate is used to refer to the whole of the state besides New York City and Long Island.

Wouldn't the core or the center of NY actually be Albany then since it is the Capital. So technically anything north of the Core would be Upstate. And anything else would be downstate.

 

it says the core of the metropolitan area which is nyc and long island.

Core = Apple. NYC = The Big Apple = The Big City that never sleeps
-

In my true opinion Upstate new york is anything north of the Catskills. but the definition is all above the nyc+long Island

 

tbh i jus noticed this and i think it's funny you jointed Poughkeepsie and Albany together when they're over an hour and half apart and over 80miles. :P

 

Now all of you New Yorkers can drive your CAWS together. Possibly have a cookout, and eat some hamBUWgers, HAWT DAWGS. Just don't slam the CAW DAWS, or get pulled over by the POWICE for speeding.

Just kiddin' guys! I used to live pretty close to the border of New York, north of Williamsport, PA. Basically in the middle of nowhere. Population: 6, not counting the farm animals.

 

Fellow Rochester guy eh. Dont know if you have ever seen the local site but here it is. Lots of fast cars on here, lots of good people.

Ya I just moved onto albany st from maine and maybe the camaro I saw was a different one but it looks just like the one on your profile.

lol yeah mines blue at the moment but im going to be changing it to high gloss black with white stripes.
im actually in schetchnectady though down near home depot.

 

I'm in the boonies in stamford/cobleskill area, damn near center of most of you guys, half an hour or so from albany, I'll be ripping the bird out of hibernation here soon too, over the summer will be time for me to work on my maro and get her up and running nicely too.

 

Ya winter halted my progress but the weather (other than the last couple day) has been decent so I've been able to get some headway like at least its running now lol

 

Can't wait for thursday it's senior Skip day at the highschool, susposed to be in the 50s, then friday in the 70s and saturday gonna be in 80s. gonna be a great weekend to do some work. and hehe i got all next week off as well spring break

 

I'm in the neighborhood between the Butcher Block restaurant and Krause's candy. I haven't driven the car much this past year (bought a house-that'll suck ALL your spare money up in a heartbeat, work long hours, play guitar in a band on the side, etc...), it's a time thing. I treat this car the way I treated the Vette I had before it, it does not see rain..it's definitely a sunny day only ride. It's sitting in my garage. Got so many projects going on I don't know if I'll put it on the road this year or not, would like to but priorities are priorities. Might try and get over to that car show at the high school in May??
You live off Albany St?..My best friend used to live on St. Thomas Lane (right down from Morris Rd.).

 

Yeh the Car show is may 13th. and ye i'm only a few streets down from St Thomas, i'm on Runnel :P

 

Well then I must be known as southern Canada. 10 miles south of canada and 10 miles west of Vermont. Albany is 3 hours strait south of me.

 

Another one here from Raa cha cha...haha I'm from just outside of rochester.

 

chas are you the one on wcmf?

 

I am in Queens NY.

 

BUMP

 

^ ditto.
live 10 minutes away from this guy.

 

Oh yeah

 

I grew up in Penn Yan. Moved to CA 3 yrs ago and am moving back to Penn Yan in 6 years. I've lived in Rochester and Corning. Also lived in Mansfield PA and Wellsboro PA. Hey do they still make Genesee Beer? My dad used to drink stuff that when I was little. LOL

 

Oh yea they still make Jenny beer! Its the local swill beer still beloved by the old folks and some younger hardcore Central NYers!!!!!

Funny thing is the Genesee brewery changed its name a couple of years back
and is now known as High Falls Brewing Company and they still brew the
Genesee brands as well as the Sam Adams brands that are sold in our Area
along with other local brand private label "craft beers".

 

i actually work about a block away from this brewery. you can tell the days when they're making beer because there's a strong mash smell in the air.

 

I know right where the brewery is. I'd sometimes drive by there when I used to work @ Kodak. I was sad when I saw they tore down Building 58. Alot of memories there. I also worked out at Elmgrove plant between my jobs at 58. I liked Rochester. Made alot of friends there and went to alot of car shows there. I've lived several places in Penfield, Irodequoit, and Gates before I moved to Corning.

 

Pavilion ny, bought half way between rochester and buffalo, im accually like 5 mins or so from the red osier,(most nyers should know) i accually work there. And mcsslover my dad does(well used to, got laid off) work for Kodak, he works for johnson controls now in the same office and gets paid more and kodak gave him a bunch of benifits, he still does the same thing(Locksmith). and Alex bay is such a nice place, we camp bought a week a year and bring boats jetskis, my uncle brings his vette, which will be mine for that week(first year having my lisence) We camp on wesley island, at Seaway resort(total joke) but were like the only ones there because they dont keep the place in shape(theres a limo in the rech hall, really read reviews)(weve had to mow our own sites the past two years) and the owners are completely crazy no joke, but we have the whole site to ourselves during 4th of july week, where every place else is packed

 

I know right where Pavilion is. Not far from Darien Lake. It's not a Six Flags anymore is it??
I've only been to Alexandria Bay once. Beautiful place. Once I move back to Penn Yan, Theres so many places I want to take my wife and Alex Bay is one of them. Wow 4th of July week and no people?? Sounds like my kind of campsite.

 

yeah, the original owner bought it back from six flags. That campsite is deff. a place to look into if u arent going to spend much time at the site. The place is falling apart, theres a nice inground pool that the perminate campers maintain, grass is rarely mowed(we bring a push mower) Dont plan on using the boat launch unless you dont mind scrapping the h3ll out of ur hitch, trailer and maybe the trim. which wesley island state park is right down the road that has an awsome launch, the docks are not great but usable, and if u have kids, bring a pole and some worms and fish off the dock, once u set the bait in the water ull have 15 perch on it, my 8y/o cuz caught a 2ft pike with a barbie poll off those docks, the owners are nuts, the old man patrols in his jazzy yells at everyone and everything, but if ur respectable and polite he just moves along. we rent 3 spots and between all our trailers trucks cars we politely take up about 6, we move if someone comes. they try to charge docking fees but they never look at the docks, and they try to charge a dumping fee LOL of 25 dollars, as iff. but where else can u have that much elbow room the bussiest week of the year

 

Another Endicott, NY guy here (just outside Binghamton, NY). My 3rdgen isn't as pretty as everyone elses though!

 

87...............Seaway Resort huh? I have heard a few not so nice things about
that place. The location is great tho.!
I own a seasonal motel on Rt. 12 near the bridge. I have been up there the last
couple of weeks getting the place ready and running for the summer season as
we opened May 1st. ! Hit me up on the PMs and we can hook up and have a
few cold ones and check out our cars !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
