My son came home on leave from the Navy and we decided to paint our 3.4 DOHC powered 85 SE before the North West Fiero Fest in Richland Washington. He arrived on Wednesday moring and we picked up a LS4 (another project) and after unloading the LS4 in the garage, we took of int the 3.4 and went to the paint store. The Fiero Fest was the Following Saturday which basically gave us 7 days to do this.
The car before we started

This is the car all done. The wheels on the car in the previous pictures were a friends. He lent them to my son for the Fiero Fest. The car was done on the Thursday before we left for the Fiero Fest.

You really need to know Fieroking. One of the most real folks that I have ever met. I truely feel blessed to call him and his beautiful wife my friends. When Joe says that he is going to do something, he gets it done!

Very well done! btw I was talking to Tony at Fiero Fest about a silver notchie with a red rear bumper in Idaho when I was going to Silver Wood on fathers day weekend and saw your car pre paint. After I get my swap done maybe you guys could come over and help me repaint my car?
I woujld have done the same thing. Looks like a hell of alot of fun. Again nice job you did there. I paint my own as well an d this color is growing on me. I wonder what the next big color will bee. Looks like we went from yellow to blue to orange. what do you think. Chime in guys so we can bump this thread at the top for a job wekll done.
Can we get some info on the yellow fiero you have there. Looks like there was some work put into the front of that car.

I will let the Joes explain more about the yellow one, but what a great car. There are literally too many little mods to mention. It is equipped with a 4.9 and 5spd. You may never guess where the modified front end came from. You will be shocked.
The interior is work in progress. I have installed a Grand Am dash and will be working with a friend to build a custom dash. I am looking for some seats.The dar is powered by a 3.4 DOHC of of a 96 Grand Prix GTP.
