John, you didnt recognize that Camaro? Thats Bart's ride, he was in front of ya when we had our cruise back in March. How many cars were there last night?

Mike,

I'd estimate about 200 cars....great night and a fine turnout.

BTW, that's not Bart's car. His is a 70 with stock Z-28 wheels. This car looks very similar, but has the aluminum wheels and the seats and dashboard have been upgraded to more modern stuff.

I saw Bart's car at Rhinebeck...wonder if he collected any trophies?

I didn't see Bart's car at rhinebeck...i saw about 5 other silver 2nd gens but not his....they all had cragers except one with stock wheels but it was from Mass....did i miss his car?

Wow, thats something, i had even looked back to when we did our cruise, and the picture which is reversed in 1RealZ's side mirror of Barts car, saw the Adirondack sticker in windshield also, I guess every car has a look a like just like every person, lmao. I'm hoping to be able to go down in a few weeks to the cruise, gotta wait and see. Tomorrow i'm getting my leaf springs done, cant wait.

Eric,

Bart's car was in the show on Sunday.

Eric,

That makes sense now lol. I wasn't there Sunday.

I went to Highland last night to the cruise at the Hanafords/Mcdonalds parking lot. I would say there was about maybe 75 cars there total, not too bad. I saw a nice 77 camaro, some older mopars and even a pinto with a cage that looked pretty cool. I went spur of the moment because i wanted to take a ride with my new leaf springs in, what a difference in the ride, alot smoother.

Pics Of The Car With The New Springs?

I'll have some on here tonight.lol. Doug's back, i cant slack anymore. How was your vacation? Any wooden camaro's built by the Amish?

Vacation was good, was checking out the amish chicks! HA! Lets see the pics. Wednesday I'l be up there, weather permitting!!!

I'll be working wednesday night, no go for me. And thursday i lose my Z for a week or two. I hope its ready for Carlisle, i'm cutting it close even by my standards.lol

Rained out on the 16th of May


Anybody going to the Ramapo car show in Mahwah, NJ on Sunday the 20th?

June 6th 2007
Saw Ben Arena and his 12k Z28, nice car Ben. Saw a few 2nd Gens, a real nice Woody. Sorry, I didnt bring the camera, next week I'll bring the digital camera.

Who's down for next wednesday? Lets see if we can get a good Nasty Z28 turnout before the Nationals.

I'm in for Wed if its nice out. Meet up before you go in to park like last time?

Eric, Let me know if your going, i'll wait for you outside the entrance. What time can you meet at? 545pm??

Eric, Let me know if your going, i'll wait for you outside the entrance. What time can you meet at? 545pm??

Not 100% sure Mike...maybe we should just meeet there i dont want to make you wait for me. I'll park in the show when i get up there and i'll look for your car. Ok?


So see you tomorrow probally.

Ok, see you there.

Ok, see you there.

You still planning on going? Its pretty crappy here. I might bag it and wait for another Wed. Post up if your gonna go though Mike, might change my mind.

I didnt go, it was very cloudy and light rain here. Maybe in a few weeks i'll be able to go.

Bear Mountain was great tonight a ton of cars and the weather was perfect!Saw Ben Arena up there, and we pulled a fast one on "MCRRT". Ben asked Mike if his car was a real "Z" and Mike started to get irritated real fast at Ben. Mike has never met Ben so he didnt know who he was.LOL

They pulled a good one on me,lol, had me going. Yes, it was great tonight, my first Bear MT night of the year, jam packed with alot of nice rides. Saw a 80 Z, a 70 Z and a real nice 78? TA. Crazy amounts of Corvettes and Mopars.

8/15/07
Heading up to Bear Mountain tonight, maybe I'll see a few of you guys there

How was it? How many cars were there? One of these days I'll have to get there.

I heard that it was a full field. We are going 08/22/07 for all who are interested as a group, just pipe in if anyone is interested and we can meet prior to driving in. Thats where we did the picture on the back of this years calendar at.

Mike, Im gonna try and make it up there to meet you guys for the 22nd. I just have to see if the wife is working or not. What time do you guys usually get there?

I wont be able to come...sorry....RA training is very intense lol.

Its good to be there no later than 540pm because after that your really far back in the field. The earlier the better. If guys can make 530pm that would be even better, what ever everyone wants we can do. It fills up really fast on a nice night.

Thats perfect being that I will probably have to leave somewhere around 7ish. The night shift calls!

Some early birds leave around 7-8 pm, but most actually stay til around 830, then it clears out pretty fast.

I'm gonna try to drive up from NJ after work. Won't have the 74 though.

One of these days

Who's in for Wednesday?

Mike, Im tryin!

I'm in if the weather is good, supposed to be in the 70's no sight of rain, I should have one of these for the Z also

Thats a cool lil seat. I'm in for wednesday, so maybe thats 3 so far, who else?

I'll have my car seat too, not as cool as Dougs though! :(

Cup holders?

4 is good, do i hear 5??lol

bump

I'm out. Just found out I have a rescheduled softball game. Maybe next week. And I gotta go shake NYS DMV. My regi expired yesterday and they never sent me the renewal papers.

Renew your registration online
https://corvus.dmv.state.ny.us/regrenewal/rrnenterreginfo.cfm

Yea I know, but a little late for on-line cause then I'd have to wait 2 weeks to get it in the mail, plus I need to know why I didn't get the usual renewal in the mail. DMV is around the block from me, just not open on the weekends.

I get it no longer then a week, I try to avoid DMV like the plague

btw, anyone know anybody that might be interested in my 02 Z? Asking 12,900 but for a board member I'll make a good deal since I really want to sell before the winter. http://www.nastyz28.com/forum/showthread.php?t=71518
It's really clean. I just don't drive it anymore (1 -2 days a month). I have a dd and the 74 is now my weekend car.

Those are nice cars, my sis in law had an 02 SS with 19k on the clock, she traded it in for a Jeep cherokee! they gave her like 13k for it.

Doug, actually not too bad by me. It's a new building and everything is electronic. Usually in and out in 20 min. Not like the old days when the line went out the door and around the corner.

Just drive it Me and Mike will be there!

Just drive it Me and Mike will be there!

Mike an I ... Mike and I!!!

Come on Doug gotta work on that grammar

So when it clears up tomorrow for the show, we got Doug, Roger, Bill and I going. ( How's that for grammar Eric?) hahahaha. How about Yoyo, Ben Arena, John H, 70CamaroNut and how about CB? Join us for a Nasty hang out at Bear Mountain wednesday night. Can everyone meet at 540-545 pm ?We can meet just prior to going on the field.

Mike I should be there around that time, if the weather is nice.

Hey Eric, shouldn't you be spending more time studying "RA" training then being on the internet?

Hopefully it will clear up. Gotta be optimistic,lol.

Hey Eric, shouldn't you be spending more time studying "RA" training then being on the internet?

i do RA stuff on the internet :)

Just checked the weather forecast, not looking good for tonight.

Yea - so much for it being a nice day today. I'm gonna bail on this one.

Me too guys. I seriously doubt I'll be there. We will see though.

May be next week........

Me too, maybe next week.

I just orderd an 8x10 pic of the Z mounted on a wooden thingy from the photo guy at Bear Mountain, should look real nice.

He does nice work. I ordered a print of my car from last year. He took a nice picture. I didnt get the wooden frame thingy though.

Try for this wednesday?

Im in for this wed if the weather is decent!

I'm in the weather is supposed to be in the mid 80's sunny

Meet around 540pm at Bear Mountain? Yoyo, do you want to drive down together?

thats cool where do you want to meet.Im gonna pick up Mark at Bernicker dodge at 5 or so.If you wanna just meet in cornwall that would be fine.

How about 515pm - 520pm @ the traffic circle at the firehouse? Is that too late for you? I can try for earlier if you want. Mike

that works Ill se you there!I am assuming that they dont have food up there so do you wanna grab something or I will grab something first?

They have burgers,hotdogs, fries,pretzels down there. I might just grab something on the way, Leo's Pizza is right there by the plaza in Cornwall, can always call in a order for a sandwich or something.

YoYo, did you see the paper today?

have to go get it!

What a night....weather is perfect, and Im stuck at home :( I totally forgot about bear mountain. Hope you guys are having a good time!

Bear Mountain kicked ass tonight, ton of cars field was almost full!

Yes, Bear Mountain was kickin tonight, alot of beautiful cars and bikes. Got to hang out with Doug, Yoyo(Ben) and his buddy Mark, and even invited a couple of firechicken(T/A) guys to come to the website. And i was really bad, forgot the camera tonight, oh well maybe next week.

had a good time but had too split to pick up my daughter...anybody know if you can see pics of all the cars that they take pics of when you come in..

Here you go
http://www.turnersportsphotos.com/mp_includes/index.asp

Your pics look good guys!! I wish I could have made it. I picked out Mccrt, 1WildZ, and yoyo74, but whos is the red w/black striped 78-81?

That came over the Bear Mountain bridge and it worked out where he was right in front of me when we were initially pulling in. His Z looked good. I've seen it before. Dont know if its a member. When i meet camaro owners there its about 50/50 whether or not they know about nasty z28.

Just got home from work on vacation all next week! Mike we can go for a drive in my car let me know.

Anyone going wednesday to the cruise?

it's supposed to be a nice night, I'll be there unlike you MCRRT!

There wont be any tread left once i get done taking the GWAPE out for a ride, hehehehe.
Bring a spare pair of underware Mike

i wanna go for a drive in your car!!!!
Eric when you turn 21 well see!

Bring a spare pair of underware Mike


If you want to drive my Z doug, just bring a pillow so you can fall to sleep comfortable,lol.

I do that when I ride in my wife's Honda also! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Doug, how was it done there tonight?

You didnt miss anything, the field was maybe a little more then half full, same for the motorcycles. I did lay down some rubber when I left!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got alot done on my Z today, all waxed( 2 coats), cleaned the engine compartment, touched up a couple spots,cleaned all the windows, filled it up with premium(usually only use 87). Got to just spend a lil bit of time on the interior tomorrow and swap out the inflatable spare with the full size spare, and install the new headlight rings and i got to adjust the carb a little bit and the Z will be all ready. I drove it up to auto zone with the air cleaner lid off, what a difference when the engine can breath.

I dont know when im going to be able to clean my car before Lake George...it might get driven up there without being washed...:(

You're getting a little crazy with your bad self, driving without the air cleaner on! HA! When your'e wife adjusts the carb for you tell her just a little bit at a time, everyone knows you cant work on cars!

Hey, thats one of a few things i can do!lol. Mechanics arent my strong point, but i can do body work. The funny thing is that when i look back when i was a teenager, i did so many things mechanically, and actually did them good, but i always hung around alot of motor heads, so it was like training in progress.

Have fun up in Lake George

You didnt miss anything, the field was maybe a little more then half full, same for the motorcycles. I did lay down some rubber when I left!!!!!!!!!!!!
What have you done with the real Doug?? Is this the same Doug who said burnouts were lame at the BBQ??? I wanna see some smoke next time Doug!!!:p

Who's up to go this wed night? I'm in if the weather is good.

I might actually make it ... 'cept I'll probably be in the 'vette

What year Vette you have?

'91 ragtop, white on white with red interior. Originally had a black cloth top but I shredded it while driving. After sitting for 5 years, I finally got it back together and on the road this year.

Now I get to deal with the "its been sitting too long" woes. Headlite motors both have failed. Bose CD player blew after hitting a bump while using it the first time. Gas *still* smells horrible even though I've gone thru 3 full tanks already. And I'll need tires - they have become hard and cracked. So yea - its just a "sunny fair-weather car" at the moment ;-) Its amazing how much can "just go wrong" due to lack of use.

Slow down a bit and you wont shread the top Roger

Roger if you need to get your cars used a lil bit, i'm sure there is a bunch of us that would help you keep them in shape with some around town driving.lol

Deff...im very local also...and if you really want me to stretch their legs i can bring them to albany for a week.

Oh geez. Well I really appreciate the offers there guys !!! And Doug - you're very right, lesson learned - so I'll need to keep my speed under 3 digits now :D

Nice turnout tonight for Bear Moutain, got to hang out with 1Wildz and 70Camaronut. Who wants to start planning a fall cruise?

Yes, Bear Mountain was kickin tonight, alot of beautiful cars and bikes. Got to hang out with Doug, Yoyo(Ben) and his buddy Mark, and even invited a couple of firechicken(T/A) guys to come to the website. And i was really bad, forgot the camera tonight, oh well maybe next week.

Hey guys

I just joined up. I am one of those "firechicken" guys. I have two of those other 2nd Gen. F-bodies but am a Z-28 fan also. I'm looking forward to navigating around the site here.

Anyone know if next week the last Bear Mountain Cruise?

I think next week is the last week but i will try to check their website and confirm it.

Who wants to start planning a fall cruise?


Maybe do a late October cruise on a weekend, check out some fall foliage, make it longer than our last cruise. I was thinking going thru Ulster county on the back roads maybe towards Hunter Mountain area, or make a day around Newpaltz/ Shawangunk area. Any ideas??

We could cruise the 5 boroughs of NYC! we could start off in the south bronx and head head west to times square and they head to Bed Sty Bkln. What do you thinkof my route? Oh yeah welcome aboard Phil!

Thanks Doug....glad to be here. An area cruise sounds like fun; if it's also open to firechickens I'd gladly come along :)

I'll start saving up for gas money (haha).

Phil, do you have the white T/A that was at Bear Mt a few weeks ago?

Yup that was me. I also have a fully restored Silver Anniversary 1979 that is having the engine rebuilt right now.

Doug, that route sounds killer!!


How about we cruise to LIon a saturday morning or something? Meet up with some of the LI guys...have one hell of a meet, start the winter off right :(

Phil, do you have the white T/A that was at Bear Mt a few weeks ago?

That was me that was talking to you and mentioned nasty Z28, its good to have you here. It would be great to have you in a cruise. I liked your T/A and your definately a huge F Body fan from talking to you at Bear Mountain. Any ideas for a cruise please feel free, welcome again. Mike:bowtie:

Welcome Phil!!!!

Glad to have another NY'er on board with the NastyZ crew! A weekend cruise in Oct. would be a great idea. Don't know if i would be able to make it with the camaro but would come and maybe ride along with someone else if i was available.

Maybe we could cruise the Saturn!

Someone throw out some dates for a cruise, see whats bests for everyone. We gotta plan our NastyZ Hot Rod Fall 2007 Tour Ny Edition,lol. October13,20 or 27th?

Mike - any one of those weekends works for me at this point. There are some nice routes I think up around the New Paltz area or even up to Cold Spring in Putnam, Beacon in Dutchess, etc.

Thanks for the warm welcome Eric!

Mike - any one of those weekends works for me at this point. There are some nice routes I think up around the New Paltz area or even up to Cold Spring in Putnam, Beacon in Dutchess, etc.

We're open to any and all suggestions for cruise routes. We had been thinking of a New Paltz area cruise, gets really nice this time of year with the foliage. Back in march we did a cruise where it was about an hour in length then another hour having lunch and bs'in, it was great got alot of positive feedback on the cruise but we did have guys wanting to cruise longer than 1 hour maybe making more of a day out of it on our next cruise. I literally did a dry run of the march cruise the day after we had a major snow storm( in my 4x4) and made the route out with complete directions. :happy:
