I am planning to be there with my new Alero so long as Milzy gets it completed in time. The jury is still out on this one as an unforeseen delay has occurred at his shop. Otherwise I may not have a car as I have sold my GXP effective this Monday when the guy flies in to pick it up.

Nope. Once it is done it will only be driven locally. Too much money and rare parts.
Beside I have driven every year but the last year.
This thing has turned into a showcar. Wasn't the original idea but oh well.

I want to agree but after getting those skirts on its not worth the potential to hit that hidden pot hole and well, toast.

01-27-2015, 08:12 PM
I hit a pot hole the rockers are the least of my worries. the rims are the worse, not to mention the brakes and the suspension. but yes after all the money and time you have to be careful.

We'll see how the old girl is doing at that point, she is doing decent right now, better than she was earlier in the month. Either this summer or next summer I plan on replacing her, most likely with another Alero. If this summer the money will go to buying a car instead of going to Michigan.

Yeah, I went in 2010 back when I still had my Alero. That was the year Andy had to wear his neck brace and I got to see the Beast for the first time. So I figure after 5 years it's time to make the trip again lol. I know it was a great time when I went then and I'm sure it will be another great time this year.
sleepyalero
02-01-2015, 09:55 PM
Yeah, i dont think i was there in 10'.
Last year there was.... About 5 of us. But we didnt care, andy, ion, me, parker, papa all went there.
This year should have a few more people. But last year we kinda just went with the flow and just hung out, no go karts, no cook out or anything like that. But was a good time, always nice to take a vacation.
Papa Rad17
02-02-2015, 04:30 PM
Indeed! regardless of not doing those extra activities. I had to get tires and brakes anyway. 09 was ryan's 'alero garage' and nate and I had mine half ripped apart last year, along with a terrifying journey. always been a great time the 2 years I have been able to make it. I plan on actually showing mine this year to. I'll be waxing it every time a spec of dust falls on it like everyone else :lol: speaking of which the olds show and swap meet are cool as well. looking forward to it!

yeah I need a new motor before I go to this homecoming lol. Under 50,000 miles and I already seem to have messed it up. "note to self: DO NOT downshift into 2nd gear when going 75mph." I hit probably 8 grand in the rpm range even tho we top out at 7 grand. The gear ratio is what made it rev that high.
Papa Rad17
02-02-2015, 09:56 PM
need to get ya speed lockout for 2nd gear too it sounds like. how bad?

Yeah, I don't believe you were there that year either. I know I would've remembered seeing your car if you were lol. I even went back and looked at the pics I took just to double check and I didn't see your car in any of them. I know I met a couple of members there who aren't too active on the forum anymore. Like Motorcity, Malibu, zOL, and Papasmurf. Plus I got to meet Scot, Andy, Kenny, Cliff, Matt, Ion, strtrydr, NoSweat, and a few others that year.
Hey nothing wrong with just hanging out and having a good time and this is true, it's always nice to take a vacation.

Just for this post right here, i now must have the car ready to make the trip up! Its only a few months away i gotta get a move on!
Still need so many things...
- transmission
- clutch
- resurfaced flywheel
- fuel pump
- headers
- maybe a new rack and pinion if i feel like replacing it.
- install everything
- alternator
- possible battery
- all new fluids
So much to do, so much money to spend! Sigh...

Heck yeah man! That's what I like to hear! In all honesty though, you don't have to get it done by then just to satisfy me wanting to see it in person lol. Obviously if you do that would be cool with me, but that is quite the list you've got going to get accomplished before then. So I would completely understand if the car wasn't ready by then dude and despite the money you'll have to spend to get her fixed, you know it will all be worth it when you're finished.
sleepyalero
02-14-2015, 11:58 PM
Hey, i want it there as much as you would like to see it!
I like when others appreciate the effort i put into this car, if people want to see it, ill show it. Im very happy with my car and what ive got into it.
In all honesty, the money she needs to be back together isnt bad. I just hate seeing her in my garage without a motor, and not being able to start the damn thing, its very sad. :( lol
All cash i can spare is now going into the black car so she can get back on her feet.
I would be much closer to being finished if i didnt buy my daily Alero, ive got around 1250$ in the daily i bought (buying price, plates, insurance, parts to fix, and alignments) if i didnt get that, i would be closer to having the black car ready. But, the black car was my only car, so with it down, i finally had to get a daily. Which im happy with because i dont like the black car in rain or snow, shes a nice day car. The daily can soak up all the water and salt it wants! I dont mind lol
But yeah, ill be getting a transmission ordered next friday. And hopefully headers will be ordered from Milzy as well. Then ill order a clutch, then decide what next.
My garage is unheated, so if its to cold out, i cant work on the black car. So im hoping soon, the weather will get a little better here once i have the parts lying around for the motor to go back in, and then ill go from there.

At least you're protected from the elements! Try working on your project in a parking lot. That gets old really quickly.

I don't doubt that at all man.
I like when others appreciate the effort i put into this car, if people want to see it, ill show it. Im very happy with my car and what ive got into it.
This. That's the way it should be man and that's what makes us car guys. I know it's a great feeling when random people come up to me on the street and compliment me for having a nice car or tell me they like my car. To me it means that I've accomplished something and that all my hard work has paid off.
As far as appreciating the effort you've put into your car, no problem man! You've done a lot of great things with your car and in my book you not only deserve it, but you have definitely earned it.
In all honesty, the money she needs to be back together isnt bad. I just hate seeing her in my garage without a motor, and not being able to start the damn thing, its very sad. :( lol
I can honestly say that I know how you feel on this one lol. While I was in basic and AIT I wasn't allowed to drive my car at all. It just sat at my grandparents house 2 states away in their garage for 5 months. Needless to say I missed not being able to drive my car a lot during that period of time. I think when I finally got back and was able to drive it again, I drove it almost non-stop for a week lol. So I understand how it feels to not be able to get in, start it up, and just go for a cruise.
All cash i can spare is now going into the black car so she can get back on her feet.
I would be much closer to being finished if i didnt buy my daily Alero, ive got around 1250$ in the daily i bought (buying price, plates, insurance, parts to fix, and alignments) if i didnt get that, i would be closer to having the black car ready.

The daily can soak up all the water and salt it wants! I dont mind lol
This is actually where I'm at with the Miata lol. I wish I could afford 2 cars right now cause I love this car to death, but I hate that it has to be my DD. One cause it's not really the type of car that is meant to be a DD and two because it's constantly exposed to the elements and carelessness of others.
Now I don't really mind the rain so much, but I do mind the snow and salt like I had to drive in last night. Keep in mind too this car isn't really meant for winter driving conditions so it did slide around a little bit lol. Today I just decided to leave it parked and stay indoors cause I don't want to risk losing it out there with the roads the way they are.
All in all though $1250 was not a bad price to pay to have a 2nd Alero and new DD. I think I've told you that before lol, but still.
But yeah, ill be getting a transmission ordered next friday. And hopefully headers will be ordered from Milzy as well. Then ill order a clutch, then decide what next.

Bruce had like a 16? hour drive from Texas and came up a few years. With that though comes having that much more time for the journey.
I just marked off another item from my prep list. I will hopefully be transitioning to new work in my field around that time but I will make it for just a day if at all possible. Looking forward to it!

and a gto in 09 :lol: that was a good show, and good time. regardless of no cookouts and trophies we still had a good time last year to!

Yeah cause others didnt care to go, me, andy, papa, parker and ion went last year! We had a nice weekend.
It's a weekend I look forward to every year since the first time I went. Babyblue has changed ALOT!! Since the first one I went too. Went from complete stock one year to six speed-3.5 swap the next year and this year I got the whole exhaust done. It's gunna be a good meet even if we only have a few people. Last year I had a awesome time. Sleepy and I got a chicks number at a bk haha. I helped papa out with breaks. Saw some amazing 442s at homecoming. I would highly reccomend coming!!

I've stayed clear of telephone poles for a couple years now, we'll see if I can keep it up! ass 12 was great, I was young and stupid for those who remember but still, good times. I hope this year to make it without any brake failure or tires ready to pop, or my rack and pinion having inches of play... had the alero long enough to start getting everything up to a more road worthy state now.

I've been in contact with Bryce about as much as I have with Milzy. He has come through for me twice already, so I'm trying to give him benefit of the doubt.

Exactly man. I don't mind fingerprints so much, but I can't stand when someone leans or sits on my car. It's like I don't want your a** rubbing up against my car or sitting on my hood or trunk!?! Although I did go to a car meet a while back where some little kid kept rubbing his hands up and down my car when he walked by it. I didn't want to scream at him cause he didn't know any better. So I just gave his parent the death stare until he grabbed his kid and walked away from my car lol.
Yeah, I'm the same way about parking out in BFE now when I go to the store lol. I didn't when I first got the car and then I noticed someone put a dent in my fender the one day with their car door and that was the end of that. Thankfully I know a guy who does dent and hail repair so I was able to get that fixed.

Nice man and yeah I decided to drive up there on Thursday cause it gives me an extra day to relax between driving up there and driving back. That and cause the last time I went I drove up on Friday morning and didn't make it there until Friday night. So this way I'll already be there when you guys start showing up on Friday. Also glad to know the meet up spot hasn't changed since the last time I was there lol.

Yeah, not going to happen. I'm on vacation that week, but not only is Adam graduating Kindergaren that week, but it's costing me about $600 to get the Delta back on the road after the engine swap. Installing the exhaust, modifing the crossmember, and installing the shift kit. All things which I cannot do. I also ripped a brake line when installing the engine :hanged:

correct. I wont have nearly the stuff done I wanted to do but... life happens. I just order the short shifter, finally. I can that put on but no way I'll get the exhaust done and I'll just have to hope theres enough clutch left to make it if I can go. Bring your tuning stuff either way Nate, that speed limiter still didnt take and if Chris shows up and is still willing hopefully he can add a little more get up n go. If the motor goes because of it, so what. Just an excuse to start early on the boosting project. and have still havent got to any of the body work.. so much to do!

Next year was are planing a trip to Maine, but I've been out to Michigan so many times, I know how to do it cheap. the AAA discount for the room I believe was $77 a night a few years ago
And more than likely I'm not coming out in 2017, going back to Disney that year :D

I'm still planning on coming. Milzy finally got my car in the shop last week (at least that's what I heard from sleepy since Milzy seems to
Be avoiding my calls). I'm supposed to be able to get the car on the 18th, but I'll be working that day then driving from St. Louis back to Indy to meet sleepy, then from there to Milzy to get the car. I'll have insurance but not plates and that's a little sketchy. Also my tires are toast, brakes, wheel hubs, alignment, battery and fuel pump may or may not red replacement and who knows if the lights work? Not to mention I'll be in the initial break in period for my tranny, so this trip could be nothing but problems for me. Keep your fingers crossed that I don't roll in in my Impala instead.

Well I'm going to be in the "next year" boat with kenny. We are starting the headers this weekend, new thermostat, fluids, parking brake shoes, short shifter, belt and start some body work and other minor things around the car. Assuming we get the headers on within the weekend it'll be 2 weeks before it can get in for the rest of the exhaust. Then I get to drive it for a week and get it in for the new clutch (stage 3 with a spec light weight flywheel) sooo.... it should be in proper shape to make it for next year. I had enough suprizes last year, I dont want to get up there and have no clutch left anyway.
And Ryan, but a boot in someone's butt so you get your darn car before it rots in his parking lot.

That's right! We've had this planned for months. Hes going! Lol
Aside from that. I did lower intake gaskets on my car.... And once all back together i had a huge problem.
I woke up friday for work at 7 am... Worked my 9 hours... Came home it was 92* so i waited till night (low of 70) to do the intake gaskets... Didnt start till midnight on that, was up from 7 am friday, to 930am saturday (12-930 messing with car) plus many breaks were had... I had it down to the gaskets in about 2 hours. But was just taking my time.
But got it all back together and had a loud hiss from the engine, i had a vac leak somewhere. I finished the car around 530 am, and then spent 530-930 reading engine codes that popped up, and also passing out in the garage lol, so i went to bed baffled... Then took my car to my shop to do a smoke test.
By the time i got there i still had the vac leak, car was running very rich, and i had a cyl 3 missfire all at once... Turns out my #3 injector was missing a o ring some how... Dont know where the hell that went. Car probably ate it... But replaced the o ring and finally all symptoms are gone and shes back to normal. But thats been my weekend so far. Lol just trying to get everything done before next weekend. Im pretty set now. Dont really have anything else to do, maybe wax the car but thats about it.

I should be up there between 2-3 pm depending on if I leave here at 10 am like I'm wanting to and traffic.

Well just remember that you have those black rubber things across the windshield for clearing water of the windshield. They are by a lever on the right side of your steering column. Figured I would remind you since you arent used to that car getting wet.
