Fiero kept... another car acquired... (Page 2/2) 82-T/A [At Work] OCT 26, 07:51 PM I got the Corvette... it runs... has some stumbling issues... lots to diagnose. I want to focus on the Fiero, but I also want to get this thing at least running so I can move it around. The more I tinker with it, the better it stays running. It may have a fuel pump problem. But the transmission is now working again... so that's good. I'll take some pictures. It's in about the same shape as my daughter's 85 Fiero was when we bought it... "running," "complete," needs major TLC. On other news, my daughter's Fiero runs and "drives" under it's own power. I say drives because the brakes are not all done yet (Rock Auto sent the wrong brake line), but otherwise, it's looking awesome. blackrams OCT 27, 08:43 AM quote Originally posted by 82-T/A [At Work]: I got the Corvette... it runs... has some stumbling issues... lots to diagnose.

Congrats on the Fiero, looking forward to updates upon it's completion. While I always needed help in one way or another on my Fiero projects, I know the feeling of finally getting one road worthy and reliable. Hope you get as much or more satisfaction on the Vette. Regardless of what your automotive passion is, they will all eventually need some TLC. The newer the vehicle is, the more likely it is that it'll be a electronic gnome screwing things up.

Rams Thanks Rams... we took it for a spin today... which is kind of crazy because we don't have the throttle hooked up to the gas pedal, so my daughter pulled the cable while I engaged the clutch and the stick, and the steering wheel. It was hilarious. I pulled out of the garage, and out of the driveway, and then reversed it, and then drove back down the driveway and into the garage. We just wanted to turn it around so that we could more easily finish the rear of the car (sanded down and painted the bumper and the whole rear-section, and cleaned up the rear taillight bulb wiring, etc.). One more weekend and we'll have the whole rear bumper back on, and then we can work on the decklid. Unfortunately... it seems the decklid might have split in half (at least the inside portion), or something... (we bought it like that) the decklid itself is ok, but we're going to have to repair the structure of the decklid. But it's really, really coming along.
