So, I have seen a few of the mandatory "Just took my engine out and I'm standing in the engine bay" photos. Why not put them all together.

I did a search, but found nothing. If there is another thread - SORRY!

Here is my contribution:

(Sorry - my big azz barely made it to the car in the 7 seconds I had to run from the tripod-mounted camera...)

Hey, isn't the Fino supposed to be parked there!!!

She had to move outside for a few days. She is under a tarp and a car cover. Good catch!!

BTW, when are you going to trade the beautiful blue car to me?

Holy cow dude!... you are like... almost as tall as the garage!

Take that photo again... but this time act like you are straining as if to pick the rear of the car up... then have one of the photoshop guru's get rid of the jacks

I can do the ph0t0sh0p work myself, but I just lost the copy that my office had supplied.

Anone here know where I can get a copy for a good price? I really miss having the Ad0be Creat1ve $uite...

See the Fino's lower rear valance hanging on the wall behind me? I little bit of the car is in there!

If I could find the Fino tail lights that Archie sent me, I'd have it back on the road! I don't know where the heck they are. I think that my mother-in-law tossed them while throwing away empty boxes...

try www.paint.net its free, not as good as PS, but free.

Thanks!

Here you go

Not a guru, but here's a crude rendition:

Excellent work!

Okay here we go... In the Widebody during the build.

lol, this is really amusing for somereason

Okay here we go again. This is the 84 that I rebuilt the engine on a few years ago. Ed Parks will get to do the shot in my GT soon.

That's true .... that's a skinny garage!!

I see a pair of Fieros. How old is that shot?

(I sure wish I was down in Lakeland now, Jake. It's 32 here in DC...)

Thanks for sharing, Alex. I hope your widebody turns out nice!

(OK, I was just kidding. I know that this one turns out to be (IMO) the nicest Fiero around )

quote Originally posted by Saxman: I know I've seen this shot before. Was there another thread on this subject?

I've posted it in other threads (people behind the cars maybe?), and also back when I did my cradle drop I put up a web page with pics of the process, and I linked to the page in a thread I posted on here. So what you're saying is you've seen enough of my ugly mug ..... I get it .. it's okay..


Rich


okay ... so I dug back and looked through old posts .... I did not use that pic in the people behind the cars thread ... different pic from the same day. I did use it in the Fiero owners then and now thread, along with a pic from high school.

Nah - I'd be voted "Most Ugly Mug" if we were voting

quote Originally posted by Saxman: It doesn't look like there is much room to roll the engine out the side in that pic!

There wasn't! I had to raise the back up higher and roll it out that way then drop the car back to safe height. There was just enough room behind the car for that. It was a real jigsaw puzzle with the lift and the new engine.

I'm only 5'6 and will be 60 years old Dec 23rd. My transmission input shaft doesn't want to line up with the clutch disk. Its my hold up and thats what is keeping me from going back in the car with the drive train. I have a buddy coming over some time today and we will get it put togeather. Its sorta hard to do by ones self at times.

It's 40 on the back porch with rain.

P.S.
My buddy came by and we got her stabbed on the back of the engine. Tomorrow I start to put every thing back togeather

I checked through all my photos and it looks like I'm going to have to yank out one of my engines to get a pic....

You gonna get back to us on that?

Hmm never thought of taking a picture when the engine was out of my 87GT. Ill do it next time ( there is always a next time )

She is not quite in the engine compartment, but it is still a cool pic.

Nice shot!

She needs some engine grease and oil on her to look like she was really working in there.

I look like an idiot. lol...

Great! PB and Fieros seem to go well together...

Hook-em Horns!!!

From the first swap that blew up.


From the re-do... still going!

O.k. I hate this picture, but I'll post it anyway. In the middle of the 4.9 swap
