Looks pretty good, man. Glad to see u finally got the #8 spark plug changed. I'm in the K3 area with my black '98 T/A, I'd post pics but it looks like every other black T/A out there. You should come out to one of the Manteno cruise nites soon, check out the Midwest section for info, its easy to get to.

I don't see that many f body's in the area i can only think of a few that i have seen one is a black WS6 with an aftermarket hood (look's nice), a blue WS6 with at least a catback,a pewter WS6 lowered with DR's and a red firebird with a black spoiler and aftermarket rim's. I thought it might have been your's (thewarrden) but i don't think it had the WS6 hood but i have been wrong before.I actually see more 60's and 70's era car's than late model's in our area except for corvette's and the one guy with the yellow lambo.

I'm about 45 mins due south of kkk. I'd like to make it to 1 of those cruise nights in manteno when i'm done doing the mods in my sig. Maybe in august after i get the new rear broken in and whatnot. Just got it back on the ground this week so it's getting close but it's filthy after sitting for over a month!

no, i see some fliers around town sometimes, and i heard of some guy's i went to high school with that were supposed to be involved in some mma stuff. But i haven't seen them since high school.

Hey prayhrd i used to chase pheasant's in cissna park when i was in high school, not that it's relevant. You prob don't see alot of car activity were your at but you have plenty of empty road's

Hey whatsnext i'm guessing the black TA with the aftermarket hood you see around bourbonnais is my car. I live near armour rd and I'm pretty sure I've seen your car around there, looks and sounds good by the way! I haven't been to manteno yet this summer but I usually go to frankfort cruise nights on thursdays with one of my cars or my harley, usually a pretty cool show. When exactly is the manteno nights? Prolly seeya soon

Yeah i have seen your car a few time's actually you drove past my house not too long ago i live right off armour road.The manteno cruise night's are the first and third Tuesday of the month, once i get a fuel pump and battery i will make it to a few event's and hopefully the track.Sometime's i think i should have gotten an f body when i see your car or that pewter one that's lowered with dr's but im to poor and have to much time and money in the mach to turn around now lol.

Yeah i think I know where ya live. Haha thanks I finally got mine lowered and some other suspension stuff done on it about 3 weeks ago. I've had it for about 7 years but it used to sit a lot due to other hobbies. I hear ya on being poor I'd like a new grand sport vette but I have a weakness for TA's anyways and its a lot cheaper! Hardly any Mach's around here that I've seen plus you have a cool color so I'd hang onto it. PM me when you plan on goin to manteno next. Ttyl

TheWarden, I saw your car today (twice actually), once at the 4000/4000 intersection (Armour/Skyline Rd), and then parked @ the DMV. I was in the lowered blue S10 hiding behind the red semi that was parked damn near in the intersection @ 4k/4k. Your car looked good, but a bit dirty from your drive lol. You woulda seen my T/A too but I had to haul my GFs big screen TV to her new place last night (biggest damn TV I've ever seen, seriously lol).

Bringing this back up, old thread for sure but I just found it. Anyway, I'm from kankakee county (Bradley) and figured I would see if there's still any people on ls1tech that are living near the area. I have a 2000 nbm Z28
