I own page 10!

Jen-U Wine Fierocarparts carpet installed in my coupe today. This is near perfect factory carpet. Steve and I did some swapping of parts yesterday while we were in Dallas for the NTFC monthly meeting, and a Texas Rangers game afterwards.
Drivers side:


Passenger side:



I was also lucky enough to get the tan firewall upholstery piece also. I have to solder the 4 rear speaker wires before I put that piece on the interior firewall. Steve brought me a window motor for my passenger side door.

We had lunch with the North Texas Fiero Club, and swapped parts with Steve.

Got my FieroAddiction 4T60E shift bracket in the mail for his web store. It is first rate. I now have two working brackets and shift arms. Mine works on the adjustable cable, with the adjustment all the way out. His works with the adjuster all the way in.

I got the 4 rear speaker wires connected this evening, and put the firewall panel back in the car. There hasn't been one in the car since last July. Looks a little different now:

A lady I mow for has had this for a while. She purchased the car and drove it home. Once home she discovered that it overheating. The seller would not return her money. She told me today that if I wanted the car, to just take it home. She was sick of looking at it. 1994 STS with a NorthStar. The car is fine all over except for the overheating V8. I drove it one block to my house, and the pressure was in the coolant tank when I got home.

You lucky sob!!! Overheating is simple to fix. There are only so many things it could be. You selling or keeping once you fix it? Will the wife even let you sell it?

Well, not quite free. I'll mow her lawn for free the rest of this year, in the neighborhood of about $400.00 worth of mowing. It takes me about 20 min to cut and edge her place. Close to free!! This car looks as good up close as it does in the 15 foot pictures.

We enjoyed seeing all of the NTFC gang, and the Rangers game too.
