The one I saw was all maroon. Looked fairly nice, but dirty. Didn't look inside or anything, I get nervous doing that in parking lots, never know who you're going to piss off. Pretty nice notchie though.
My wife was coming home from work downtown on 65 and she saw a white 2M4 last night. Kind of funny, we've seen more Fieros here in the last week than we ever saw in Richmond...
I've got my black 88 GT that is my toy/baby/obsession/money pit. I will need a clutch soon. I have a nice garage but it will be a bit before i get benches built and all the tolls and stuff sorted from the move. 'Betty' will need a clutch this summer, if anyone in the are has done them and is willing to do a nice job on mine for a reasonable price let me know and we'll talk timing and logistics.
Look forward to seeing you guys around!

Yeah, it seems like the only time I see 'em is when I'm NOT in my Fiero, so they prob think I'm nuts or something when I honk and wave...('course most people probably think I'm nuts anyway...)
That fits the description of the maroon '87 belonging to the guy I met at Lowe's.
Lurker, I'm still saving that piece of plexiglass for ya...

Lurker , If you need some plexi I have several peices at shop not sure what size you need but most is about 3ft x 1ft??? stop by shop i will cut what you need if it will work for you.
jb1, I'm not sure what Mark has in mind for it, but this is a 4x8 sheet of fairly thick plexi, 1/4" or so. If what you have will satisfy Mark's requirement, and Mark doesn't need it (or still want it), you're welcome to the sheet if he doesn't want it (sounds like you might have a use for it).

Ok, it's not finish sanded and buffed yet, but here's my car as it looks now...
Worth every second of the time spent in prep...wound up having to shoot it in my carport; wish I'd been able to find another paint booth available, (had one lined up, but fell thru at the last minute) but that's why I put extra clear on it, to allow for sanding out trash. It still came out fairly nice.

jb1 and vonov: this whole plexiglas thing came up when i was working on my flushmounts, in regard to covers. ive got some thinner acrylic which will probably work just fine, so i dont "need" (want, maybe. need? no.) more plexiglas. so if you guys can find a use for it, all the better. now, if someone has an isuzu 5 speed gearbox laying around gathering dust, lmk.
maybe something we should do for the proposed meet in june is make a list of everyone's spare parts and swap 'em. or maybe between us we have enough parts to build an entire car!

Hey BlueGT how ya been, did you finally get a ride going, I would love to have a meet in the Ser/Gatlinburg area, wife could go shopping, and drivng to Newfound gap is fun in our cars. Wheres Charlotte, TN?
Found a coupe to drive, but it needs just a few more things before I officially put it on the road. The Pontiac Show is next month in Pigeon Forge on the 3rd and 4th. It's been really busy here lately. The great thing is that most of my time has been spent working with Fiero's! I hope to have my coupe fixed up enough to drive by the end of the month.
Vonov, any plans for a meet in your part of the woods? Missed out on the fun last time... I'll be sure not to let it happen again.
If you middle TN guys plan a cookout or something, I'll be there... Hopefully with a veteran attendee (threeofclubs) if I can coax him into making the trip.
As for anybody that's interested, a Sevierville/Pigeon Forge get together later this summer could be in the works. It'll definately be after the All Pontiac Show. Stay tuned! ------------------ Got Blue?
BlueGT

Charlotte's only about a half hour from me (or less, depending on how much I want to risk being pulled over, and before you say anything Lurker, it ain't like it used to be, lol---nowadays I can get in more trouble than just a ticket, just for getting pulled over, the way things are in my neck of the woods right now). I kind of hate to host another shivaree at my place without giving somebody east or west of Middle Tennessee a shot at it...it'd kinda feel like we were hogging all the fun, or maybe that we couldn't be bothered to go visiting in their backyard; don't want to be rude to our East Tennessee brethren, do we?

It was good to meet you also. Hopefully the weather will straighten up soon. I've got some mods to complete on my car.

Somebody's gotta let me know where this one will be at. Got some free time so I MAY make it out of Memphis for a get-together. Don't know if I'll bring the Fiero though, just got back from the bank and the car loves to cruise at +110! Don't need any more tickets.

The get together is to be in Charlotte, TN on June 17th. It's right next to Dull and Frog Pond if that helps
Mapquest to Charlotte, TN I'll shoot out PM's to all those coming that need a physical address. Once you get to Charlotte its pretty hard to get lost.

Unless anything comes up, I'll be there. Let me know a rough time to arrive, otherwise it'll be pretty early in the morning, like 2-3 a.m. Send me the address please, would like to meet y'all.

Got home from work and thought I would get to do some painting, but I had way too much sanding to do. I got that done now, so maybe I'll get it done tomorrow.
Hey guys! FYI : The GA club is having a cookout at Ronnie's house on July 8th. I'm going to try and make it down. If there's some interest from anybody from here wanting to go also, let me know and we can caravan down. Ronnies place is a little ways east of Atlanta. You might want to plan an overnight stay if you live really far away from Atlanta. He mentioned camping as an option, or there are hotels not far away.
