Here are the pictures from Saturday July 15th's Heartland Auto Show in Fremont, NE. Bear with me, as I'm still working on resizing the pictures, so I'll add them slowly, (and hopefully at the right size).
First is Guy Nasser's 85... Fitted with a Ferrari Re-body, and turbo'd 2.8, as well as a PISA interior.
An engine shot...
An interior shot...
More to come, as I resize them...

Here is Edzards (from PFF) 87 GT. This car always wins lots of awards, with its 3800SCII engine swap, Mr. Mikes leather, and custom body and paint work. It is a stunning car to see in person, and always garners a lot of attention.
Here is Trevors87GT (from PFF). This car used to belong to me, until I sold it to Trevor, my brother-in-law. It has had lots of work done to it, since I owned it. It now sports a nice black, with blue flame, paint job; Aus Stage II scoops; MrMikes leather seats; a Fibersmith sub console; and a handful of engine upgrades.
More to come...

Here is my car... Another 87 GT, with MrMikes seats; many subtle bolt-ons, and a set of 17" TSW Hockenheim R wheels. This car used to belong to TheDobe88GT from here on PFF, before my dad bought it, who then sold it to me.
More to come...

Here is another stunning show car, that always draws a crowd... TranFiero's 87 GT. This car is an amazing piece of work. It features, vertical doors; a gorgeous paint job; massive wheels and brakes; a host of body mods; a very nicely modified interior; and the icing on the cake, a 96 LT1 engine. It's a crowd pleaser everytime.
Yes, there are more to come...

Here is Jerry and Peg Burrows' yellow 88 GT. This is a very nice car, and is totally stock. They also own a very low mileage Indy.
This is litespd's 86 GT. Mike has spent several years slowly masaging this car to be exactly what he wants, and it shows. Every modification has been thoroughly thought out, and no small detail was spared. It is hard to believe that this car once sat in a junkyard!
One more reply, then that's all I have...

Nice job on the pictures, Nic...and thank you for posting them! I, of course, forgot my camera, being the "old guy" that I am. I'm sorry to hear of Trevor's problems on the trip home...hopefully, it won't take a lot to get him on the road again. Sluppy123 drove up from Lincoln, and endured the heat with the rest of us for a while. We didn't do too bad in the trophy department, either! Jerry Burrow's 88 GT took third place in his class (he was placed in the wrong class, and was told that it was reclassed...but it wasn't). Dick Edzards (Edzards) took 3rd place in his custom class, and Tran (TranFiero) took first place in the same class. I believe Guy Nasr took 2nd or 3rd in his class, Nic took 3rd place in 86-Present Stock 2 seat sports car class, and I took second...we were beat out by a late model Thunderbird which I was told only had a couple of thousand miles on the odometer...grumble grumble... Thank you, Nic, for the kind words about my car. You've done just as much work to your car, and it shows. You have something to be very proud of....
Anyway, it was an ungodly hot day, but we managed to stick it out, and did well. Next stop....Gretna.....

I didn't think I could see a center bar but I just thought the photo was playing tricks on me.
So you know the owner? If so, would you ask him if we can use some pictures of his car as advertisement for the Aldino?
Dale, Guy used to be a member of Midwest Fieros, but hasn't been for several years. I will find his contact information, and PM it to you so that you might contact him directly.
