Hi,

I'm Eric. I live in Lindenhurst, Illinois.. As for how I found this site.. when I googled chicago something about a month or two back, I saw the site. I read thru it, and decided I liked it.. awhile later I signed up.

What I'm looking for from this site is that I'd like to meet some new people interested in what I'm interested in (cars..:-] ) , make some new friends, meet up with some people/attend get togethers in my area when possible, and just get to know other make/model of cars a little better.

as for my ride, it's a 1995 Pontiac Bonneville SLE.

I'd love to get a hold of a newer 97-99 SSEi.

I look forward to talking with you all.

What's up, G? If you're interseted in meetin' some people and hangin' out, you've found the right place. I've met some awesome people through here! Plus, we have weekly meets as well. Of course, we are all car nuts, too. Welcome aboard!

You guys ever get any meets going up here 'round the Gurnee Mills mall or in/around LakeCounty? or is it all set up down in/around cook?

I was looking at the pics of your 10/1/6 Sunday cruise in that one thread.. It looks like everyone is a nice group who can get along very well.

Thank you for the welcome.

Our food meets on Wednesdays are in Dupage. One in Downers Grove, and the other in Warrenville. Our cruises on Thurdays, we met out in Schaumburg, but those are done for the season. Yeah, we get along really well!

I know where schaumburg is. Never been to DG or Warrenville.

I have no clue on the sig rules so I figure I'll ask a vet:

a. What's the max size length / width allowable for the sigs?
b. Is there anyone you know of who can possibly hook me up with one or make it? I have no photoshop skills whatsoever.

Thank you for your welcome, Headsick.

What kind of camera do you take your pictures with? Looks to be of damn good quality.
