I just moved down here from indiana. I live on the beach right now. Jeremy hooked me up when I first got down here as I had some problems with my car. Hit one of us up when you get down here and I can at least show you around the beach. Also I have a keg at the house I am staying at. overall there are not to many f-bodies down here that I have seen.

Yea, Fort Myers is a nice area. I go there every year. I have relatives that live in Bonita Springs, about 20 miles south of there, so when I'm down there I always go to Fort Myers and Naples, nice areas with lots of hot girls! Rich people in Naples, Rich people = Hot daughters! I was down at the Naples beach this past spring when all of the colleges were out for spring break and damn, girls everywhere.

Ok, he got a hold of me and is willing to do my install. Helped me out alot and possibly saved my motor from a future malfunction (rod bolts). Pretty cool guy. Thanks for the help.

Yeah nice talking with you Styles.
Just my personal feelings on those rod bolts.
98 LS1+160,000 miles+ new power with heads/cam/headers+ higher reving motor ='s Bad new for those stock shaty rod bolts GM used those years.
Can hurt anything to replace those with some higher quality ARP Rod bolts.

Hey man whats up.
Nice to see more people from this site moving to Ft. Town.
Hell just this past year at least 3 new guys have moved here that were members of this site.

What kind of work do you do?
I imagin finding a job might be a pain in the *** when you dont know anyone or where anything is down here.
My number is all over this website, but incase you cant find it its 239-872-5541, give me a shout sometime once you get here.
AS far as women........
Well I went to Michigans first home game this past year and there were quite a few honeys.
We can be hit or miss down here sometimes. You can find some damn attrictive women here all year round, but spring break is a notch above the rest of the year.
Just becareful what you look at. I sware the 16 year olds here look 20 or older. Sucks when your hiting on a hottie and her mom's comes to pick her up from the movies.



Also you will love the water here for the jet shi.
Gulf is awsome 90% of the year for riding. (If there isn't a hurricane, or some tropical storm, and if the water isn't to cold)
Plus there are a few fresh water places to go. Probally nothing like the great lakes you have, but still some good fun.

We need to have a F-body meet some time. I don't feel comfortable doing the weekend night meets going on in Ft. Myers. Nothing against those who attend them, but I'd prefer to not make myself associated with that group.
