The first shot taken at a show last March where we first met up with the local 3rd gen crowd:

Looks good! If he ever needs any misc. parts for it let me know. We have 4 3rd generations laying around. Shoot I even have a very healthy L69 305cid backed by a T5 if he ever wants to get rid of the LG4.

beautiful car! i miss my 86Z!!! i'm so jealous right now....it isn't fair. :( i will own another Z28 somewhere around that year before I die. that is one sharp looking Z, so glad it's being taken care of...although if I had it, it would have a garage space. hehe

It's got a garage space, you can see it backing out of the garage. He stole his Mom's garage space. :D

Doesn't look like a TPI to me. :D
The LG4 is a 5.0 liter, 305cid with a quadrajet carburator rated at 170hp and 250ft/lbs in '87.

Your sons Camaro is nice. I am in love with that 91-92 Z. Even though they aren't the most powerful camaro, those are by far my favorite.

Hey largefish, man, how's that work, your son get's the Z and you get the GA? Man I'd be puttin my foot down on that one.......hehe Nice though, very nice.

It wasn't supposed to work out that way. He was gonna take the GrandAm and I bought the '01 Camaro to be my daily. He had a little trouble adjusting to the manual transmission and lobbied for an auto. so we started shopping used cars and after some frustration found this one for a fair price and it checked out pretty well with my mechanic. I told him after a little time he would regret gettting and auto. and I was right. He borrows the GA once in a while just to drive stick now. Go figure... But it's allowed me to baby the new Camaro more, so it's all good. Funny though that I have a 4 cyl and V6 and he gets the V8!

well, just send him off to college or military school and do a quick swap....hehe

He will be going off to school, but parking space availability is probably on his list of must have features. I really don't want an LG4 anyhow. I like my Quad and the 3800 is pretty good also...

New rims. I really liked the centerlines, but I guess I can't deny the stock 91-92 Z rims some props.

I was outside working on swapping injectors on the GA when all of a sudden a car show started up in my front yard.

EDIT - I just saw how old this thread is. So if you don't have it or don't want to part with it anymore, nevermind.
