Awesome. Alamo Area Fiero Owners (AAFO) meets regularly, is full of good people and dear friends, and hosts a yearly open Fiero show in the spring called the Round-Up. I am sure they'd be very welcoming to Jim and his unique car. As a matter of fact, I just spent the weekend with several of their regulars in Oklahoma. The PFF username of the President there is: fierosa, His name is Robert. He does not get on PFF too often, but is active in the regional Fiero community.

Theres a few events in D/FW I'd like to invite him to join also in 2011.

If you don't mind sharing his username, I'll send him a PM with a few event invites... Or Jim, if you read this, drop me a PM.

Congrats on your car, I hope it is as fun and inspiring to drive as it was to follow this thread!

and to Archie... after posting a whole bunch of event photos for the aforementioned Fiero rally I recently attended... I can certainly appreciate the time you spent to size the pics, post the explanations, answer the questions, over and over and over. I spent half the night just cropping and sizing a dozen pics, much less posting. thanks and g'night.

Got these pics & note from the owner today.

Well it is finally painted and back home . Here are a few pics and I will send some better ones when I figure out how to frame the pictures right with this digital camera. It is done in Toyota Blue Streak Metallic with Mercedes silver for the rocker panel.

Absolutely a work of art!!!

Now I am really pissed to know this beautiful car lives in San Antonio and I had to recently move to Florida. I really hope the owner brings it to the Round Up next year as I will be traveling back to Texas to attend.

Thank you Archie! For sharing this build with all of us on PFF.

Oh my...

It came out even better in paint than I was imagining. Truly a fantastic piece of workmanship, good work Archie and the lads!

What sorts of reactions has the owner been getting on the street? It looks amazing.
Was this a color scheme offered on the original?
