Default Macomb, IL / WIU students - come in!!!

I was wondering who i saw today driving though campus around 5:30pm. There was a purple LT1 Z28 with GTO rims, a '97 30th anny Z28 white w/hugger orange stripes & gray Z06 rims, and a white LT1 trans am with black rims. I loved seeing some f-bodies as they are kinda rare around here - all of a bunch of ***** *** V6 rustangs!!!!

I don't have my Z28 here in macomb, its sitting at home in chicago. But i'm bringing it next year when i live in a house, and I would love to go cruisin with some local f-body owners.

I used to go to WIU, I have my Black SS. Never would have brought it down to Macomb though, its low miles and relatively perfect. and WIU has some harsh winters. A couple of guys in my frat had f-bods but only one had his at school. It was a red A4 LT1 TA.

I think I'm comin down this weekend with my SS.

I'm about 40 minutes or so away from WIU. I've got quite a few friends I went to high school with that go there. None own any f-bodies though. I'll hopefully be getting an LT1 T/A or Z28 sometime soon. So maybe when you bring your car next year, we could do some cruisin and make fun of all the little ***** *** V6 stangs. lol
