Welcome to Firstgens

I have heard lately of several people having trouble getting into the forum. They click on the menu above, and it acts like it is going to go, but never moves, no error message, nothing. This happened to camaroman7d, I don't know if he ever got in. it happened to 1fast69, and I was able to help him over the phone. It happened to my wife this morning, right before my eyes!

We seem to have some "BAD COOKIES"

And the fix is simple. LOG OUT. Then go into the forum, then log back in.
This will clear the cookie the site leaves on your PC, and then set a new one.

Also, please email me admin AT firstgens.com if you ever have any problems accessing this site, even if you are able to fix it yourself. I need to know, so I can try to work and resolve the problem, so no one else gets caught up in it. I've also heard that the "lost my password" link does not work, never sends an email. again, email me admin AT firstgens.com and I will fix it up for you.

Thanks,
JimM

Guldstrand Mod - The hard way

Mechanical Tech - Suspension Upgrades

Last Updated on Thursday, 19 August 2010 21:03 Written by jannes_z-28 Sunday, 15 August 2010 07:06

I did the Guldstrand modification to get better geometry in the front suspension. I decided to do it the "other" way i.e. cutting the A-arm mounts in the lower part and welding them back again. The reason for this is that it will look like the original and still be as strong as possible.

Welcome to our new Site!

Last Updated on Monday, 26 April 2010 07:38 Written by Jim Monday, 26 April 2010 05:40

Good Morning all, and welcome to our new software. At around 3 am on April 26, we moved to a new host server, and implemented our new content management system. Joomla is a powerful system with loads of features, way beyond "just a buletin board." Best of all, we now have unlimited storage, so keep the pictures coming.

In the very near future, we'll get going with a host of new features, including:
"Live Chat" shoutbox
Tech Articles
"My (or should I say YOUR) Garage" pictoral and blog space and an @firstgens.com email address. (this will be premium content)
Feature Articles, every week a feature on a random member. We're a community, and this will help us get to know eachother.
And Sponsors. We'll keep it small and tasteful, and require forum participation, but yes, we'll have some sponsors.

And loads of other stuff I haven't even thought of yet. If you think of something you'd like to see, let me know. And if you'd like to submit a rech article, by all means let's have it.

The firstgens forum is right here, exactly as it has always been. If we lost a picture or avatar in the changeover, let me know via adding a reply to the thread in site discussion.

If your user id won't work or you cannot login, send mail to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Let's have a big thanks to co-admin JannesZ28 for making this happen.

South Side History

Last Updated on Sunday, 22 August 2010 02:12 Written by Administrator Thursday, 22 April 2010 00:45

This group started back in November of 2008 with this post on the Team Camaro website "I'm curious, how many members live near Chicago's South Suburbs? I think it would be cool to get together and bench race during the winter and help each other out during the warmer months. Maybe a Team Camaro Chicago Chapter? I've got my '69 and my buddy has his '98 SLP SS. That's 2. Anybody else?

After several posts, Tim suggested Dec. 3rd at the Hooters in Orland Park as our first meeting, and South Side Camaro's was born.
