Hi, All
we just got back from the Fiero club meeting where I talked about having an open house and I decided to do it. the date will be August 7th at my shop in Woodstock, Ga.
this date works great for me because my birthday is just before it so we can make a party of it. anyone that wants to come by is more than welcome. by this time I will have projects that will be farther allong or done by then so you all can see what I have been up to.
I will post more details as I set them up before the day.
D.

If I come, can we chop my car while i'm there?

How many pieces would you like it in? I can bring a sawzall.

LOL! I already have a HD one at the shop

Jimmy I think it would take more than one afternoon to do that
D.

so far I have not decided what I want to do for the day but I still have time. I plan on having some of the 355's I have worked on come by as well as the DD and I think I will even get the Choptop cleaned up and over to the shop for the big day. allong with what ever else I will be working on at the time

bump to keep this fresh for everyone. I am working on several things for the day and as I get them worked out I will let you all know.
D.

I am trying to get a few things together for the open house but it is a little hard to do when you do not know how many people will be here so if all of you can do me a big favor and let me know if you are going to come it would be a big help.

I want this to be something we can do every year but this one will be big for me not only because it will be the first one but it wiil also be 2 days after I turn 40 so come enjoy the day with me if you can.
once I have things set I will let you all know, it will be soon.

I think it would be pretty cool to have a gathering of Fieros and play "Fix up the beater." Whoever has the crappiest looking Fiero gets a "barn raising" style tune-up. It would make for a nice Shipman tribute.

2 Days after your 40th, and 1 day after my 31st... maybe if I find me a decent daily driver of a Fiero that would make the trip... 0_o

Address?

I wouldn't mind taking a long trip with my 4.3/F40 6 speed to see what kind of interstate mileage it will pull down.... It would be a 320 mile drive each way (about the distance I drive to go home).

I will let you know if I can attend as it gets closer (and I get the 4.3/F40 swap on the road).

I will post more info later this week.
for now I need to get to work.
D.

Hoping to make this one !

Ok, All
less than a mounth to go. here are some details for anyone that wants to come by. I will be at the shop from 10 - 5

D.

I am not going to make it... too many work/family delays in progress on the 4.3/F40 to have it done by then.

Its a maybe for me... Fingers crossed

I'm planning on it, if nothing comes up. Maybe I can finally get those springs? I'll also buy a t-shirt in "large" size too.

Part of me will be there.

We will be there put us down for 5

No Problem you can come by anytime you want. the open house is just an excuse to have a cook out with a few friends and have fun.

Hey, all, Aerodonamic (Don Hulse) suggested that we bring some things to sell/raffle and donate the proceeds to Robbie Finley. If you've got some good useable parts or maybe some filters or accessories, maybe someone might be interested in them.

Sounds great to me. we have been working like mad to get some things done before then.
D.

Happy birthday ya old fart. Just kidding. You only have a year on me.

Had my first cup of coffee...got one eye open. 'Bout to go get the second cup to wake up the other eye. Then I'll drink the rest of the pot to get my butt moving. We'll see you around noon.

Alright... it has been all day... where are the pics for those of us who couldn't make it!
