He posted it on Facebook himself. He is looking at retiring and moving to Colorado in the next year or so.

That's a shame. Hopefully someone buys his business and continues. He's the only vendor with quality parts that actually fit the car and work.

Thank you. Thank you for all of the greatness.

What is great about Rodney's business is that he never tried to compete with the Fiero Store but developed unique problem solving parts for different applications. The logical buyer would be the Fiero Store and it would help them greatly expand their offering. I've dealt with Rodney over the years and always enjoyed a good experience. If anyone needs any of his products, the time to buy may be now.

I've been doing business with Rodney since the 1990s, never had a bad experience. My Fiero would have gone to the scrap heap many years ago, if it weren't for Rodney. I sincerely wish him the best.

I just hope his business is bought by a reputable vendor. One of my biggest gripes about Fiero ownership is the sketchy aftermarket support. Having to rely on cottage industry people who come and go like fads, and vendors with questionable reputations, is not fun.

Hence my statement of "parts that actually fit the car and work". That's the LAST company I'm hoping would make an offer. Hopefully it sells to someone who actually cares about the quality and fitment of the products.

Based upon past history, if they buy anything from him, I hope he makes them pay through the nose...
