I finally got my 2004 WestFest T-shirts from Nora at UG Showcase.com. As some know I never got my shirt(s) that dipicted #11 with the California as a back-drop design on it. Nora re-modified it from the disc that Dale (Songman) provided. This one is different from the prior one I had gotten. On the front left corner, it has a small pic of the car with the words, "32- valve Northstar." Funny that I was wearing this shirt while talking to the guys in Bakersfield who couldn't believe a N* could fit in a Fiero. I'll send Exoticse a pic once I learn how to use my new camera phone

I hope you got one of those new 1.3 megapixel camera phones. It's not as nice as your real digital camera but better than the "bigfoot" shots that we usually see.

Yep...that's the one. It even has video too. I was looking for a 2.0 mega pixel but they didn't have one.

New Trend? I stop by Trends body shop last week. Joe, one of the owners of the shop said he had something to show me. Apparently Trends has a new style for wide bodies now. It’s called the, "Curley flare." Two of the vehicles now in the shop have an extra fender mounted on each fender...a Lexus and a Mustang. The Lexus looks good with the fender flaring yet it's not really wide or the look of a wide body. Funny, my Fiero is 3,000 miles away in FL and it's creating new ideas in CA.

It looks good. That rear window is really tight! It's always good to hear from one of the 16 choptops...or is it soon to be 17?? Archie is being mysterious, I think the new shop has been inaugurated.

I like the openess of the rear wheel fender......made for some wide puppies. What size do you plan on using in the back?

The suggested rear wheel size is 15x9 with 15x7 in front. Team III is in the process of prototyping a "Chromadora" style wheel based on their Cobra Halibrand for me and another "dino nut". I'll go with a higher sidewall tire like that of the era. The lowered suspension is KYB shocks, coils and sways. ------------------ #3 V8Archie Chop Top , Roma Dino 246GT conversion, '85 SE, V6, 4spd...and a bunch 'o stuff
