I vote for the red fastback GT being red.

Separately, is there an easy fix that would make the "F" in "Fox Valley" (which appears to be the so-called "Hemi Head 426" font) look more like the "F" in "Fieros"?

If not, how about instead using "Good Times" font ( http://www.dafont.com/searc...psize=m&q=Good+Times ) for the phrase, "Fox Valley" or maybe for the entire phrase, "Fox Valley Fieros"? ("Good Times" font is similar to the "Pontiac" font which appears between the taillights of Fiero GTs, for example.)

If any of the above modifications would be a major PITA, please don't bother with them.

Everyone fall asleep???? so how about the next get together any ideas on were we should do it???

Nope not asleep!

Just too pissed off at myself for the rim purchase that is the wrong bolt pattern.

Steve

Hey Jets/Rob, I'm thinking about the prospect of painting the car at my house and I don't think I want to do that if I can avoid it. I'm wondering if it's possible to rent time in a spray booth anywhere around here. Also I'm thinking very late June/early July to get to painting on my car. Let me know if renting time in a booth is possible around here.

Talk to you later, Chris

Hey guys we need to get together on this logo thing so I am going to just set a date, lets decide on this by next saturday everyone just suggest the one u like and ill take that as the vote the one with the most suggestions wins as our logo as for my vote the newest logo looks cool I vote for that one it fills all our needs simple has fiero's and the text is correct too plus I think it would look good either print on a clear backround or on a white backed sticker! next sat cookout???? I went to a few parks today and plamond(spelling?) looks good, it has a petting zoo for the kids and has plenty of parking and places to grill and sit plus has pavillions in case it rains what do u think, it is located on the north side of appleton.

what time are we thinking? I might have to work all day till 630 IRRC so a dinner thing would work for me best. Changing the brakes later today too so itll be road ready!

Wow, finally changing the brakes!!

Steve

So guys everyones been really quiet about this sat are we going to get together for a cookout???? and hey I still dont have acces too the administrator stuff for the club site so I can put dates up on the calender and the countdown clock yet

uh oh guys, i think theres a problem with the websote. When i went to it today my antivirus popped up saying that Malware was found. (not not the silly hey we found this bs everyone falls for ) i use avast and its a legit warning that some programs were trying to download themselves on my puter.


what gives?????

I had problems with the site too today it forgot my login password I can see were it would be easy for a hacker to get into it the site is verry minimal at the present time messege webs and let them know u got the mailware from it they host it they should fix it

quote Originally posted by jetsnvettes2000: so the guy looked at the bike and it dosent look like he can afford it, he thought it was a old wore out bike not somthin nice like it is and was thinkin hed get it for 1800 ya right lol maby for a wrecked one not mine!

Rats!, I was looking forward to some more garage space. The car is ready to go. I have everything I want out of it. I'll be putting the stuff I take out of my other Fiero into it so there will be some interior there [seats, carpet, dash] so the interior won't be completely gutted. You'll need door panels, door wire harnesses, window regulators, mirrors, gauge pod/instruments, center console parts, and some other trim parts, but you should have most if not all of what you need on your trusty rusty! Sell that bike! Next week I'll be thrashing on my tile project and I hope to knock that out. Then I'll begin working on finishing/prepping my car for paint.

hey rob I found a complete set of poly suspension bushings for the gt I'll throw in as well. I've decided to leave the gt seats in the gt so they'll go with the car. They're not perfect but they're not bad. they do need a good cleaning though and I have a better top half seat cover for the drivers seat as well. anything else that I have extra I will throw in with the car

will u be around sat? I could come down and take a peak id come sooner but I work late all week this vette project is killin me! luckly its almost done other than a few more things I have to fabricate alls thats left is the major body work whew then ill be down to 5 cars left this summer no sweat!!

hey Rob sorry I won't be around this weekend, maybe sometime after work during the week might work. I can start scuffing up the car. what grit and kind of paper should I scuff it up with?

quote Originally posted by av8fiero: hey Rob sorry I won't be around this weekend, maybe sometime after work during the week might work. I can start scuffing up the car. what grit and kind of paper should I scuff it up with?

hmmmm well u did alot of work on the back so to be safe start workin it with 220 or 240 then go over it again with 320 and that should be fine givin its black use alittle white spray paint as a guide coat so u can see were u are sanding, just mist it on dont put it on heavy on the back were u did all the modifications u are going to have to do some sort of filler primer on that area just sanding it alone wont do and black guide coat it.
Its going to be verry wavy despite how good it feels and looks
id use marhyde ultimate 2k get 2 qts of it one for each side and the hardner mix it up and spray it on around your sail panel area and along the top of the rear quarter and on decklid, put some tape in the sill so the primer dont get down under their,

ill take some pics tomorrow in the light and point to the spots u need to tape and prime and put them up on here unless your going to be home tomorrow nite i could run down and show u real quick i dont plan on working late so id be able to shoot down by 5:30 far as the rest of the car if the paint isnt cracked or peeling just sand those nice areas with 320 grit and save some sanding ill be going over it with a fine tooth comb anyway before i give the green light to spray and if i see somthin that needs to be fixed ill step in and work it out for ya.

Hey I sold the bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! time to add a gt to the fleet!!!!!

quote Originally posted by jetsnvettes2000: Hey I sold the bike!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! time to add a gt to the fleet!!!!!

Congratulations on the sale of your bike!

Does your resultant interest in adding "a gt to the fleet" mean you'll now have a less visibly disproportional, thoroughly outsized bias toward "notchies" (as evidenced consistently on the left-hand side of the logos below which you've had a major hand in creating), or does this simply mean that after the successful sale of your bike, you'll get an `85 GT since those were the only GTs that came with a "notchie" roofline --- as opposed to the so-called "fastback" roofline of `86 through `88 Fiero GTs?






All razzing aside, and regardless of the logo eventually decided upon, will the printer you're considering using be able to create stickers that can be affixed to the inside of a Fiero's rear window, as opposed to only on its outside? I ask because my Fiero is a year-round DD, so for my car, a sticker that can be affixed to the inside of a Fiero's rear window (like my PFF sticker from SAFASTRO) would be more practical.

Rob, I'll pm you or call you Monday, I'm in Illinios all weekend. Next Saturday is out as well, I forgot I'll be golfing. Next Sunday may be doable though, or we could work something out during the week
