Bought my old Fiero back after 12 years (Page 1/1)

In 2006 I did a V8 conversion on my 85 GT in my driveway. I swapped in an 88 cradle at the same time. A year later, the clutch broke and I sold it to some guys out of state. I tracked it down last year and bought it back. I have spent the last few months fixing about 20 items that needed attention. I put in a new carpet, headliner, sunroof tracks and sunroof rubber. Gave the motor a complete tune up and put on some new tires. I was able to fit 18x9.5 wheels on the rear with my coilovers. Anyway, I'm happy to have the car back and plan to keep it much longer this time.

Very nice motor! I'm jealous for sure. It would be a waste of time & space to say 'enjoy the ride!' when it is so obviously an awesome ride. Maybe I'll say 'blow some doors!' instead.
