hey guys i had a idea that may work to our advantage gettin the word out about our club, How about we invite the local paper "newss record" over to one of our get togethers and have them do a small article about our club, they are always lookin for local stories and i think this would be right up our alley, we could have some of the members cars their for a pic and stuff is this somthin u guys would be onboard with?

jetsnvettes, that seems straightforward enough, but maybe it would benefit from some red color in it (like the earlier shields had), below the website address; either...
Red on the two Fieros (except for their windows and tires) and on the small Fiero emblem near the bottom
OR
Red around the two Fieros and around the small Fiero emblem near the bottom
What say you?

Hmmm. Good question.
Initially, I thought they would, but now my guess is that if you use the same shade of red as that which you used earlier, the fine black lines of the cars won't disappear. I say that because in the following "quadrant shield" (which still looks pretty good to me), the fine black line forming the perimeter of the small Fiero emblem didn't disappear, although maybe (as in the white "valley illustration" within that quadrant shield), using white lines instead of black might be needed to guarantee those fine lines don't disappear:
Anyway, that's just my guess about those fine black lines of the cars. I imagine we'll find out soon enough whether or not it was correct.

A shield whose colors (as they appear on my computer monitor) include a fuchsia Fiero emblem, and a bright yellow Fiero with turquoise rocker panels --- could be an acquired taste.

Hey everyone, looks like we might be gettin storms saturday so if that happens lets make a rain date of next saturday instead plus that will make it possible for all of u that will be going to the dells to make it.
ya if its just raining and not storming ill still do it their is things we can still do I just woulnt want anybody to risk their cars in a storm rain however its just water lol!!
I'll drive through anything. (short of maybe a tornado).
I guess you can expect me there then. I'll be in a toyota camry. All my other cars are still undriveable as yet. I unfortunately don't think I'll have my datsun ready by Sat.
