Tara, don't get rid of that 'grampa' camaro when the new one comes in. To me they are classic. Hope to see it before you put it in retirement. I'll be home Friday sometime. Looks like you had a good turn out. Sorry I had to miss out.

Yes it is a pay once kinda thing. You get a wrist band. This is our first time attending but I will be brining lots of water and sun block. Will probably bring a pop up tent thingy but not sure if we'll set it up. Not going Friday as I will just be getting back but will go Saturday and probably Sunday. He's the web site if anybody wants it.

Hiya! There's no way I'd part with the '79, especially as I bought it new! If I wasn't saving up for the 1LE, I'd be spending money on the power train and body of the Z. It's been very patient and good to me since I bought it "off the showroom floor" on October 23, 1979. It's only left me once on the side of the road, but that was the fault of the 79 Trans Am that I was <koff> <koff> playing with! I swear that Pontiac Trans Ams are bad for Chevy Turbo 350s! That's my story, and I'm sticking to it!

My 1LE is scheduled for production this week! The wait will be especially painfully once I know the car actually exists and I'm not sitting in it yet!

Take care y'all!

Tara

Hey Corpus owners I'm pretty new to the area/site and was wondering if you all were going to go to attend the Texas Camaro Nationals in Sealy? I've been out of town for work for the whole month and meeting up with some other fellow Camaro owners would be awesome!! I cant wait to get back to my Camaro..company has me in a Sentra..
I should be flying back into Texas Friday evening, 26th..possibly the 27th.

Thanks.
Ben

Welcome Ben, I beleive that some of us are going to the Camaro Nationals and some are going to the Mile. I to will be home on the 26th and am looking forward to it. If you have interest in going tothe Mile shoot me a PM. If you are interested in the Nationals I believe usnatclee or JenL and her husband are going. You can hit them up. If we do not get with you that weekend the following weekend is the SCCA AutoX on Waldron Rd. You are more than welcome to come check that out or participate if you'd like. I can give you directions and more info if needed. Look forward to meeting up with you.

Neomi and I were going to the nationals but no one else was going. Will probably go to Texas mile. It's really a toss up. The nationals was great last year. Ard dyno and car show, Hennessy shop, then lmr on Sunday.

OMG, my order went 3400, so my car will be built sometime soon! I'm at the edge of my seat! I had to stop by the Chevy lot and touch a couple of Camaros for therapy... Aaaahh... That'll make me okay for a few minutes!

Tara :o)

Im excited for you Tara. I remember when Christine ordered hers. It took so long (4 mo) to get we kinda forgot about it till they called to say it was in. We did not anything about tracking them like we do now. And mine I just told them black 2SS with 6M. Two days later it was there. It was the longest weekend. Cant imagine how its been waiting for the 1LE. Make sure you get pics coming off truck if you can. You'll be glad you did when its thirty yrs old like your other one.

I'll be in the tower landing your plane lol. I will be on local control on Sunday when you fly in. I'll drive my Camaro in that day and park it near yours. If i get a chance I'll come down to meet you before you leave Sunday.
