Thank you for the club stickers guys. I would like to hook up with you guys as well. I am giving a presantation on the 19th for NIFE you all can watch it on the internet check out fierofocus.com and you can see what I have cooking.
hey depending the time ill go with ya i need to find a cruise control diaphram outa a 82 caddi
i was just talking to my little brother about asking to see when u guys are going to gibsons i wanna go to see what they have but my truck is gonna be in the shop tommorow morning
hey Rob I'll call you when I'm getting ready to head up there. It won't be too early. I don't know what you need the caddy cruise parts for but if they're for your Fiero you should scrap that idea and go with the later model electronic cruise setup. There is a thread for it on here. If you're interested in that I'll post a link
Foxy, it's a bit of a ride up here for you, but gibsons has a whole row of fieros. I'm sure we'll be going there many times if you can't make it up here tomorrow

Steve did you get your springs yet? I'm probably going back to gibsons for a few things tomorrow am
Yup, picked them up Monday afternoon.
Steve
P.S. If you guys are bored and have nothing to do.....I am putting a tranny in a Bonneville tomorrow. I dropped the bad one out tonight and need to install the replacement.

Hey Rob...look for speed sensor covers from 85-86 Chevy Celebrity or Buick Century with a v-6 and a 4 speed OD. Has to have a cable coming out and not a sensor.

Score! braided stainless brake lines, near perfect front fiero badge, 84 only non ac footwell vent setup, airbox for my custom intake setup, homelink setup. Rob scored some nice visors and some near perfect dot matrix dash panels. It was a great day at gibsons ........ How's that tranny swap going steve? Sorry I couldn't make it up there

I got two sets of the dot matrix panels all in perfect or near perfect condition! I already gave steve the radio surround bezel for his 88, I also scored the visors wich are near perfect and a homelink from chris along with some trim parts that say fiero on them! price................15 bucks for it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im so jealous of u guys i wish we had a junkyard with at least 2 fieros in it here maybe ill get lucky at al's friday
I tend to think lately the employees at al's get a kick out of damaging their cars. I have not found a useful part there, for anything, in a long time.
I think I am going to go to gibbys next weekend and take detailed pics of each of the fieros and start a thread, I have a theory............ If I do this and post it, givin the sheer number of fieros in the yard will draw people looking for parts from all over giving gibbys more buisness and make them relize they need more fieros in the yard still, after all a good buisness model is keep your supply up with the demand right>>>>>? I think maby just maby this will have them at more auctions buying up more fieros, it seems they have already steped up the pace buying them from rawhide auctions since I told them people were looking all over the country. Right now from what I gather from all the other guys on the forum we seem to have one of the largest collections of junk fieros in a yard here so lets keep poking and prodding gibbys to get even more! maby we will get lucky and start seeing gt's in the yard then!!

The yard next door (durum is it?) is much better.

Hey Aaron gimi a buzz when your back in town your girl scout cookies are here! my daughters girl scout troop has a request that u take them back to base and hand them out to some of the troops u work with and take pictures they want to see a tank I guess?.....lol just post them on here and ill then email them to the girl scout leader.
Grey carpeting for the floor, a grey glove box door and an egr valve.
Man would I love to covert to a 5-speed also.
Steve
The carpet looked pretty good, and so did the glove box door. The car is smacked up in the rear. I took the braided stainless brake lines from this car. Did you get your tranny swapped into the bonnie?

I did get the tranny swapped........but unfortunately the case was cracked under a mount that is bolted on the rear of the tranny. Of couse I did not notice until I had it in and running. I should have looked a little closer at the tranny case. The tranny came out of a car that was hit in the drivers front wheel and busted the side cover which I had to remove from the old tranny.
So this morning I pulled it back out in like 1.5 hrs.
Steve
Oh, hopefully I can get the replacement soon so I can get some 88 Fiero parts next saturday!
Bump bump! did ya do my tranni yet!!! its gettin warm I have an itch to drive it!! chop chop chop chop chop chop chop lets cut it up!!!! CHOPTOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!nom nom nom nom
Firefox! u should help us out....well since u have done a few of Archies chops and all....ILL BUY THE BEER!

Hey Jets, take a look at this......Need to install the tranny AGAIN in the Bonneville. Hopefully the case is NOT cracked on this one.
Hey Jets can do. I made it back to OSHberg at midnight. I drove my 85 GT all the way. Discovered it likes to leak trans fluid. Going to take a look at it in the AM hope It is simple. It didnt start leaking til i was almost to oshkosh.
