Dang...I wish we had lakes like that here. There is one lake in the middle of Oahu (Lake Wilson). Its pretty much filled with algae, scum, and what-have-you, mosquito infested, etc., but I heard people still go fishing there. Nice photos Dan...don't forget to back them up on a DVD or backup hard drive! Looks like game-on, I'll have to match those sunset photos!

I believe the "S" in GTS indicates the model that the roof can be removed (Targa style). The "B" in GTB indicates a hard top. I think they must have just gotten the GTS and stuck them on all Mera's. By right, mine should be a GTB. But I figure I'll just keep the original tag, and if anyone asks, I'll say the "S" stands for Sexy (LOL...the car, that is).

Okay, it looks like the Fiero tail is 56" long (measured centerline), and 12" wide. Those IRM extensions I used increases the angle slightly, so it just gives the appearance its bigger. But it is pretty big.

Rick I hear you on black cars. I park my Fiero outside, so I just tell folks that layer of dust and grime is actually a fine layer of protectant for the finish.




My black car was a triple black (top,paint,interior) 68 GTO convertible with hideaways. I bought it because it was a GTO convertible. I sold it because it was Black. I would have to start it, turn on the A/C full blast, and by the time I finished dusting it off, it was cool enough to get into, without getting heat stroke.

my new favorite word...Omologato...it used to be Superleggera....

Hey Rick? did you get a hold of Karl at the Portage Mi dealership?? what did he say?

i never turn on my AC. in any of my 3 cars. EVER. my solution is to roll the windows all the down and drive like "Ace Ventura- Pet Detective".

well i cannot talk, at least up here in MI we only hit the 90's for about a month or two....but, its the humidity thats a killer...i long for this "dry heat" i have heard so much about. thats a price i pay being surrouned by lakes. on really hot days its to the lake or a cold shower or 4. a day.
Dan

*EDIT* this is where Richard shows up cuz its time for a flip. he is better at that game of flippin new pages than i.
