When my car(SmoothGT) hit's the first show in October it won't be a perfect product either, But, There won't be another one like it... There's not another one like the "Stinger" either.... Give NO credit for ALL the Great Part's of the car.. Just point out a few NEGATIVE'S...  Get my point..??  Post some pic's of your car and put your car up AGAINST the "Stinger".. Want to put up OR SHUT UP??? [This message has been edited by Smoooooth GT (edited 06-05-2002).]

Well gee, don't like YOUR faults being pointed out?? Might want to think about that BEFORE you slam people. Archie has been nothing but helpful to most everyone (obviously YOU are an exception for some reason). If you have questions which went unanswered, why don't you call Archie. I'm sure he will be helpful, as he usually is. LT1 Stinger is a mixture of "can it be done?". Yes, it still needs work and Archie will be the first person to admit it, but look at the big picture; a Fiero, chopped, dropped, Corvette engine installed, and suicide doors. It is TRUELY a "one-of-a-kind". By the way, welcome to PFF.

Yes you are right. You're entitled to your opinion. And so am I, and so is the rest of this board!!! If you don't like that, then don't post. I appologize for assuming that when you said you worked on hot rods it was only body work. If your such an expert with a paint gun, lets see your car. I'm sure there are many people on this board that can critique your fiero.

OK... for starters, what were you complaining about in the beginning- the quality of finish of the bodywork. What do you want to ask questions about? The V8 Conversion... two entirely separate worlds. Most people are either mechanically inclined, or aesthetically (bodywork) inclined. Archie obviously has his hand in both, but still focuses on the Mechanics (he's V8Archie, not ChopTopArchie). So don't knock it 'till you've tried it! 2nd- if I'm doing something (taking pictures- especially possible promotional pictures) and I've got someone pestering me with questions... I'd probably blow you off too! What? you can't wait 2-5 minutes until I'm done doing what I've already started? Now if you've got your undies in such a bunch about your unanswered questions... why not just ask the damn questions so we can answer 'em for you already (I'm sure by the sounds of it- they've been asked, and if you use the "search" function you might find them yourself).

So... what are you selling anyway!? Why do you have your undies in such a bunch over this anyways? [This message has been edited by MinnGreenGT (edited 06-05-2002).]

My dad gets sh!t from people because his Camaro isn't perfect. I'll be the first to admit that my dad should probably spend more time on the bodywork, BUT.... Nobody mocks the acceleration when that 475hp 383ci stoker when he blows past them as if they're standing still. BTW, I just recieved my Archie kit and I'm very happy with it, even though the parts aren't polished like chrome.

Archie has shown us his work now you show us yours, since your work is so much better why don't you enter your Fiero in a show and let the judges decide who is best. Or give us a preview by posting pictures here on this forum.

I spoke with Archie at the go-cart track on Sat. (which he helped sponsor and gave out 20 free tickets). I asked him if I could get a ride in the stinger after the awards on Sunday to video a ride from the inside. He said “Sure, if the guys don’t have it loaded.” As luck would have it, it was loaded so I was taken for a ride in the Finale by one of his guys. All I can say is “WOW, WHAT A RIDE!!!” Thanks Archie…. P.S, I hope no one looked too close at the details of my 'camper' ------------------ Let's go camping!
