If anyone is headed north on 206 in the evening hours, and passes by Sarah Jane's restaurant on northbound 206, look for a blue, third gen firebird that is always parked in the parkinglot. The owner must work there because its there just about every night.

I head southbound on 206 past there every day, however doing a U turn to get back up there is a real pain. If you have a flyer handy and plan to run by, stop a sec and flyer the car?

Incidently, one of the managers at the Stop and Shop in Hillsborough drives a 00-02 cherry red Firebird Formula. I didn't have any fliers with me at the time, but watched him pull in this morning. If I wasn't half dead from lack of coffee, I might have taken a min or three to chat.

He saw me looking his direction and probably thought I was a freak. :lol:

I'll try and flyer that one too when I get back. :twisted:

Ian

well, I flyered the one in front of sara janes, now I am gonna try to find stop and shop formy. Oh yeah, I saw a fourth gen parked at the wawa in montgomerey on 206. Don't know if its always there or what, but I'll check if its still there. :)

Well done Ian. The only other one I can point out with regularity is a black 4th gen TA thats parked at a business on northbound 206 across from a garage that used to be a gas station. I think its a furniture place.

The person who owns it is there all day, and usually backs the car into a parking spot. Since he's on the northbound side I cant get there in the evenings, and never remember to take flyers in the mornings (plus Im half asleep behind the wheel like most people and just dont want to stop that early). If you're headed north and pass Sarah Janes, look for that small business on the right. You'll see the TA there.

I've also seen this nutball in a 4th gen silver TA fly around the Exxon station on 206 across from the Pathmark / Lowes complex. Crazy sombutch.

Oh wait, that's Stacy. :wink:

Welcome to the club Lou. If your backyard is any indicator, looks like you may live close to the high school right? I live right around the corner from it, though there's no F-bod in the driveway to tip ya off.

In fact, I think Ian was about to lower the price of his GTA to $500, right Ian? Give up that ol' Hillsborough Special Pricing? :wink:

You guys can head out to the Route 533 Slalom and have some fun heading south past Griggstown late at night. No cops. No cars. Just watch for the deer.

Not sure if its called River Road or not. Just go to the end of Hillsborough road where it T's, and hang a right then give it some gas. Fun to run through late at night when there arent any cars. Just be mindful of the deer. :-P

As for scraping together a grand.. I'm slowly working on it. Wife and kids are high maintenance, not to mention a house. *sighs* I might hav eto start batting my eyelashes and hope someone will take pity on me. ;-)

Yeah, thats river road and there are a bunch of deer on that road. I used to fly down that road on the weekends around 9 in the morning. No one on the road and plenty of light. 8)

You have a damn nice car man. Do you have dark hair, glasees? I think i have seen you, not sure tho. I live over by the end of hillsborough road. Close to amsterdamn elementry school. Todd did you go to HHS. How's Monmouth? I was thinking about going. I applied but still haven't recived word. I went down there and it looks like a really great college. RIGHT BY THE BEACH. a bit pricey though. Glad to see some more Hillsborough F-bodies around. I hope to see you around some time.

Yea, that is me. I did go to HHS and I do go to Monmouth for the time being. Won't be coming back next year but it is a two minute drive from the beach. And yes, I do indeed drive a dark blue LS1 Z28. There are two blue 98+ Camaros in boro..he lives by the municipal building and drives a six banger. That is one way to tell the difference.

It was on Monfort that I think I saw a WS6 LT1 on Saturday afternoon. if that jobs your memory any.

I had an LT1 last year but it was totalled around this time last year. Lady ran a stop sign on Duke's parkway (the intersection where there is that little bridge that goes up hill with a stop sign..she was on that side). So yea, she ran it and my car was totalled. If you have any questions about the car, I worked on my LT1 a lot and I know a lot about the engine, so just shoot me a message for help with mods.

Right now my car is under a nice car cover since I won't be driving it untill next may. I live by the Ostergaurds..you know the car..the silver jetta with the awfull body kit.

Good luck with the car! (it is an LT1, right?) Just check my signature for my current lightly modded car..and how I cannot drive yet :oops:

None, zero, zip, nada. I used to have a 97 Firebird, but traded that in for the SUV as a necessary family vehicle. I'm trying hard to get back into one (1st - 3rd gen Trans Am) as a project car. Until then, only a mini van and suv sit in my driveway.

I'll just be the pathetic one, sitting at the end of the table in Fudds, remembering when I used to own one. :roll:

Yeah I really should. Especially with him throwing the engine and trans into it. *ponders* I cant do a damn thing with it until next spring, and my wife and I are contemplating moving. Hence the reason why we're concentrating on the house.

He's close enough that I should just run by and chat with him. My budget unfortunately hasn't risen about $500 though. *wrinkles nose* I would love a 78, trans am or not.

On a side note Paul, have you given any more thought to the resto business?

HardcoreZ28
11-11-2004, 07:42 AM
Lots of thought......like all day while I'm sitting in my cubicle. Like I said previously I have to finish this T-Bird first and pay off the rest of my debt. In the meantime I'm just doing my homework and will probably start putting my business plan together over the winter.

I think I'm gonna stop by and talk to Mike about the 78. Thats just too good to pass up.

Well, you can swing by the high school and watch the cops catch the kids leaving school in the afternoons. Â*Burnouts and general speeding are always a crowd pleaser when those reds and blues start flashing.

You can play "Dodge the Deer" around the Duke's Estate at dusk or dawn, trully testing your reflexes and insurance company.

Hmmm, lets see. Â*You can play "Which Boro is It?" by racing through Nashanic, seeing if you can nab a Hillsborough cop or a Flemington Cop by doing 60 on Route 514.

Or you can swing by Belle Mead Garage and heckle Ian for working in a town that had to cede part of itself to Hillsborough.

That last suggestion at least doesn't involve the police. Â*That might be your best bet.

One of Stop and Shop's morning employees (Vicki) owns an 85-86 Trans Am. She or a previous owner put a pop top on the hard top. Poor car....

I haven't met her directly, and judging from the load of crap strewn throughout the car (no, Im not above sneaking a peek into someones F-body) I wouldnt waste the paper flyer on her car. She probably bought it because it was cheap enough for her to afford.

I think Ian tried one of the managers there with his 1999+ Formy. No response yet I think.
