hi, guys.
havent posted in nearly 6 months, but read the forum regularly.
anyway, i sold my fiero. (fiero going, better car acquired)
i'm now driving a geo metro, 3 cylinders of roaring power, more cargo and people space, better gas mileage, easier to get into and out of. the fiero no longer met my needs.
i sold the car for $500, and within 3 days the new owner got in an accident. word has it he stopped abruptly in the middle of the street and got rear-ended. then about 3 weeks later his wife contacted me, asked if i knew where the car was?
apparently he broke down somewhere, walked away from the car. it probably got impounded, and after a week or so of impound fees, not worth his while to redeem it. so it's probably been crushed by now.
i drove that car for 7 years, and yes, it broke down a couple of times, but i never considered abandoning it, and i never had an accident. i just don't understand some people.
so now i've got a bit of (to me) useless fiero memorabilia. i took the majority of my junky spare parts to the landfill last week, but what looked useful i still have, and would rather find homes for than trash.
there's a mattel fiero, about 4 inches long, metallic blue, says "indy" on it.
there's a stock subwoofer box
there's an ecm out of another '84
there's the '84 FSM
and finally, a brand new, never used haynes manual
i havent figured out what to do with the magnesium decklid side covers, maybe i can make a WMD or something out of them.
if any of you want this stuff, let me know, and we'll figure something out.
it's been fun and educational, and i'll continue to lurk around the forum. and if there's ever an occasion to get together and hang out, i''d be honored to be there.
