I believe he meant the headlight door retainer clips for high speed driving. 
By the way, welcome back!

Thanks brother. I don't feel back though. I won't until I am home with my family in a couple of days. On a seperate note, I will most likely not be able to make it to MN this month like I had hoped. Personal reasons are putting a wrench on me coming out there. But I will be out for the Tyler car show whenever it happens. I will be driving out for that, hopefully in my Fiero if I can get it trustworthy by then. It makes me sad not to make it out to see the Shipman family and everyone this month like I had planned.

Hey, guys! I posted this on the guestbook on Tyler's mother's CaringBridge journal -
| quote | Hey Tyler!
You don't know me, but I saw your story on a local Nissan Z forum (I drive a 1991 Nissan 300ZX) and read about you on Jalopnik.com. Since then, I have been reading everything to do with you and your Pontiac Fiero. I'm still reading the build thread on the Fiero forum, I'm on page 38 right now. Your story has also made its way to another forum, ImportsNC.com.
This story has touched me, and I wanted to thank you for showing the world that car enthusiasts aren't all negative. So from one car guy to another, no matter where our cars came from, thank you. You certainly deserve that beautiful yellow '86 Fiero GT! I just know that when you're ready to leave this world, it will be in that car and a trail of tire smoke!
Stay positive, fight that cancer, and drive the heck out of that GT! You're in my thoughts!

That being said, I wanted to thank YOU people for doing this. I read every page of this thread. Where I live, in North Carolina, there are too many negative stories or reports about people who are supposedly automotive enthusiasts. The world was watching you, and you showed them that true car guys are actually a contribution to society, not a menace to society. I don't own a Fiero, but that won't stop me from giving you guys support!
A while back, there was a lady that was very involved with various motorsports in NC. She got diagnosed with liver cancer, which is untreatable. Her dream was to build a 10-second FWD DSM car. There was a huge outpouring from shops all over NC, donations from DSM people, a magazine editor from Import Tuner magazine even managed to get Stage 5 axles for the car. She got to see it dyno and run, but sadly she never got to see it run the 10-second goal.
It's people like you who make me proud to be a car guy!
Go Fiero!

Thank you so much for the kind words Adam. Many of those who participated felt the need to do so. We were guided into this by something unseen. I hesitate to use the words "A higher power" but that is exactly what it felt like.
As you said, it isn't where the car came from, it is the love of the car that unites us. Sadly, I have watched several threads on other forums about this build where a few people make derogatory comments about the car. It is those people who don't get it, and never will.
Welcome to what I consider the greatest car forum in the world! Of course, I am a little biased.
Stick around, we'll get you hooked in no time. ------------------

Just a bump, I never received my T-Shirts that I ordered.
Is there anything I can do to help facilitate the safe delivery of them?
I'm sure it's just something that slipped through the cracks with everything going on.
