Default New Member From Oklahoma

What's goin on people?

New member here residing in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Just joining to make some new friends and continue learning about F-Body's and the LS-series engines.

I don't currently own an F-Body but I have owned three of them in the past. The most recent, which I sold a little over a year ago was my favorite car I've ever owned, '99 Z28. NBM with custom grey stripes I put on myself.

Looking into getting another LS1 F-Body within the next six or so months. This time I'm leaning towards a Trans Am, considering I've already owned three Camaros and want to switch it up a bit on the next go around with these badass cars.

Any other fellow Tulsa or Oklahoma members on here? Chime in and say hi.

Thanks in advance for the welcome!

I just got back from Oklahoma this weekend, all my family lives there, I love it there! I actually bought my ws6 from Durant OK, f-bodies go for A LOT cheaper in OK than here in the Texas Panhandle.

I don't live in OK, but my parents and sister live in Claremore. I visit there pretty often as I only live 6 hours away...

Hello, everyone. Thanks for the welcome! I know there's more Okies than this so chime in!

GTMLS3-What's up, man? I actually lived in the Claremore area for the past 5 years. Actually, right up the highway in Verdigris(near the QT at 66 and Gordon, if I remember correctly).

I sold my car to a guy that lives in Claremore. It's a LS1 Z, NBM with custom grey stripes and a billet grill. Do you ever see it rolling around town by chance?

I like it. Do you know how much it'll cost to get the Trans AM part on the doors painted?
