Hello guys! Just wanted to start a thread where all of us in the Arizona/Phoenix Az. area could just reply with a Hello! Nice to know whos in the area in case we need help or to exchange parts, etc. etc. I live in the Ahwatukee foothills area of Phoenix. Please also edit your profile and under additional information put down your location in Arizona. This will make it easy to see who is in Az on the members list as well. Also, this info could lay the foundation for a future Pro-touring club in our area opening up a whole slew of possibilities...ie:Group purchases, cruises, gatherings etc. etc. Also comment if you might possibly be interested in a club or if you already are a member of a club what the name of it is and the contact info. Thanks to all who drop in to say Hello!

Just thought I would drop in and say Hello, I am jamesg602, I live in Chandler,AZ and am currently in the process of building a 68 Camaro. I go to school full time at ITT Tech studying electronics engineering. So most of my time is spent between work and school, I have not had much time to work on my Camaro in the last 6 months so I have just been stacking up on parts. I hope to make some time for my car soon :fingersx: but we'll see how it goes. Any of you guys ever make it to Scottsdale on Saturday nights at the Pavilions? I was there this last weekend and the nice weather drew an awesome crowd.

Hey guys I'm in Tucson,68 Camaro RS, still building car, is in the paint/body shop. All the body work is done. They painted it gloss black to look for imperfections should be painted next week. I am trying to decide on an undercarriage coating do any of you have any suggestions. I was leaning towards Line-X. I think it would be great to get a club going. And trade some info and parts.Oh by the way looking for wheels to anyone have ideas don't want TTII everyone has those 17x8 17x9

Wow- some awesome cars here.
North Mesa- great to be here!

I'm designing some Pro-touring stuff...looking for possibilities.
Worked professionally in the auto body/paint industry, now a professional designer.

No real car right now, but looking forward to having a car in the near future as I'm building a garage now.

I'm currently in the South Chandler area (Queen Creek & McQueen) with a 70 Chevelle (LT1, 4L60E, Ford 9", 4 wheel discs, etc.). My parents still live in the Ahwatukee area, and my dad has his 1967 Camaro convertible w/396. I am definitely up for meeting with people to drink, work on cars, whatever.

On that note, is anyone going to Pavillion's this weekend?

Nice to hear from all you guys! I'm in Ahwatukee. Have not been working on the car much as of late but will be soon. Looking to start paint pretty soon. Eventually want to drop in a T-56...if I can find one for a reasonable price that is! Sandman I would like to see your T-56 install some time...may need some pointers if I ever find one. You guys take it easy.

The car is at the body shop being painted right now (Drew Brothers Customs off I-10 and the 202 (South)). I was thinking about just cruising up there to experience the madness yet again, and try to get ideas for the interior. If you let me know what time you're thinking of arriving up there, it would be nice to have a face to associate with the names.....

Welcome Phillip! Thanks for dropping in to say hello!

Thanks Larry...As a matter of fact I think it should be a forum rule to put down your location. Let's face it most of us use a "stage" name anyhow so it is not like it is giving up any real privacy. I think it enhances our chance of finding good connections close by and it is a rule to put down your location if you are selling something on the forum anyway...correct?
