Time to go Old School the PT way!! I have to have a 1st gen.

I'll tell you what -

After lurking around LS1Tech for a while, I came so close to a fourth-gen, its scary, looking back.

But, somehow I found this sight a year ago, and I caught the bug - had to have a first-gen.

Congrats on the decision - I mostly lurk here, but welcome!

We are happy to corrupt you. :evil:

Hey, I was in the same boat as you a while back. Although I had both! I was modding my 4th Gen T/A and trying to build my PT '69 at the same time...... Yeah right like that was ever gonna work.

I sold the T/A ealier this year and got cracking on my Camaro again.

Here is my T/A: http://hometown.aol.com/ryanb94ta/index.html

And a quick vid: http://www.seanbatt.com/files/MUSIC01.mpg

The car put down 415 rwhp and ran a best of 12.61 @ 114.92 mph on street tires.

Was a blast, but had to move on.

You'll be happy, a classic ride is much more rare and worth a lot more than a whored out 4th Gen.

Amen to that! I sold my 93 Trans Am a few months back so that I could concentrate on my 383 LT1/T56 67 Camaro SS.

You'll enjoy having a first gen Rob! IMHO They're SO much easier to work on than a 4th gen in all aspects, and they're just badass to watch going down the street too. You see 4th gens every day.... but heads turn when a nice looking first gen rolls by. :headbang:

[colt zantop]

Ill admit that this site has corrupted me also!!!! I like to think of it as a "SNOWBALL EFFECT"........it just keep building up and up and..................LOL!

[Steve1968LS2]

I miss my 4th gen.. but then again it wasnt your run of the mill 4th gens :)

But I really love my 1st gen.. especially with the same engine, same seats, same console, same brakes.. well you get the idea :D

[Nine Ball]

my '69 definitely gets more attention than my '02, but I don't have any worries about parking my '02 at the mall. haha

I like them both for what they are

[MarkM66]

I think you made the right choice.

It's a good idea to invest in something that has the potential to increase in value, as opposed to something that will decreases in value.

First gens are good mmkay. :lurk:

[zbugger]

Hey, don't go blaming it on this place. It's your own fault for getting suckered into the first gen party. Besides, it's the second gens that rule!!! :hail: :3gears:

Yeah 2nd gens rule and the vintage and rare 77 rules all :lmao:

[CAMAROBOY69]

I pretty much went thru the same thing just before I found this site. Sold my 1996 Firebird Formula with a 6 speed about a year after I got my 1969 Camaro. Now thanks to this board I am dead broke but I at least have my dream car in my garage. :rotfl:

[nkopper]

Yup, been there too. Wife made me sell the '85 Trans Am I had been working on for six years when I bought my '69 Camaro. I kinda miss running the snot out of a 408 small block chevy, but my motorcycle satisfies my need for speed until I finish the Camaro.

You made the right choice! Good luck with your project.

I never would have found this site untill I saw the Mule. Then thats when I started to get these haunting visions of me building a 1st gen.
I can't keep both, God knows I'd like to but this needs to go to make room for the 1st gen. Sucks cause I put alot of time and money in this car but oh well I want a first gen. Have I said I want a first gen enough!!
If anyone knows anyone that wants a good fourth gen. pass then this e-bay link please.

[Bill Howell]

I saw here someone asked about trading a 69. Anything cooking?

[96Z28SS]

I am willing to look at trades for a 69 camaro.
I haven't received any e-mails yet with trade offers.
