PSJ,

i have 2 friends who cruise to woodfield sometimes both fridays and saturdays during the summer. One lives by u.s. cellular field and the other lives in Monee.

On the other hand, when i lived near addison and laramie, there was not too much going on. i never found a real hangout spot. my bro in law would go to 103rd st, but that was years ago.

i'm in elgin now and cruise to woodfield. there's some spots around here, but it either older guys with old muscle who cut out early, or punks.

i'm 25 and dont consider myself a punk, ( any more ) so, its hard to find good spots. because theres always a couple goofballs who ruin it for everyone

if anyone has or knows somebody that wants to sell their camaro or t/a (6spd) preferably black, let me know.

I'll consider auto's, but I'm really hoping for stick.

can spend up to 6500, but I'd rather it be less.

If you buy one, where will you hang out? And don't say the South Side.

I'll be moving back up that way in May, so I'll be looking for something to do. Unfortunately, all I've got is a lowly Honda now.

Not to hijack the thread, but I've been looking at some apartments around the Hoffman Estate area that seem reasonable. Any suggestions where else to look? I'd like to stick around the North Chicago area/Far North Suburbs.

Yeah off-street parking is nice, otherwise your bumpers start getting nicked up. Craigslist is usually pretty good too. I'm moving from Montrose/Western to Addison/Western this Friday. There is a NBM SS parked on Montrose all the time, I think a girl owns it.
