Default Greetings from Eugene

Just wanted to stop in and say hello. Purchased a 2001 black z28 m6 Camaro just recently and am loving it. It's completely stock and at the moment I'm working out the previous owners "repairs" (I.e. Jb weld power steering, 1 wire crimped to alternator).

Wondering if I'm the only guy from Eugene on here. I don't see that many F-Bodys around here which is disappointing. Is there any local car meets or clubs? I haven't been involved in the scene in quite sometime and would like to get back in. Is there a good place to get tuned in Eugene? I could travel but would prefer local.

Welcome to the board man, and nice car choice.

I think there are a few guys on here from the the Eugene area if I recall. There are a few of us around in the Portland/Vancouver metro area. Some of our cars are prone to jackstands though (mine included).

One crimped-on wire going to the alternator,,,, that sounds familiar from a certain SS I know of (previous owner mod) LOL....

Yeah, I love previous owner mods . So, the Portland/Vancouver area is where the F-bodys roam eh? Sounds like I'll just have to do some I5 driving . I'll try to get some pics of her tomorrow if it isn't snowing/raining.
