This was mastered from LaserDisc. The videos come from the 1984, 1985, and 1986 discs. Some of these will "teach" a salesperson how to sell the car - pointing out features and other items that would need to be pointed out. One of the them, "A Car Is Born", shows the development of the car beginning in 1978 until they roll off the line in 1983 and is hosted by (a very young) Mike Joy and includes many interviews with Hulki and plant employees.
"A Car Is Born" is 22 minutes, the others are anywhere from 10 - 15 minutes each.
This is ONE DVD taken from 3 source discs.
Cost is $20 (shipping included via USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation) to anywhere in the 48 contiguous states. Anyone else interested in the cost to ship to Canada, Australia, etc, PM me your info and I will find out the cost for you. Payment can be sent via PayPal to kre8itvideo@aol.com or mailed to Tim VanZile 2005 E. Main Street Gatesville, TX 76528
DVDs will begin shipping Wednesday, April 2.
The following videos are on the DVD:
1984 Disc: Fiero - A Car Is Born Fiero Introduction Engineering and Manufacturing Innovations Styling and Feature Benefits Fiero vs. the Competition
1985 Disc: Fiero Feature Story Program Fiero GT Story
1986 Disc: Fiero Program
ALL the stories are on 1 DVD.
Great for portable DVD players at car shows or just to sit and watch and remember.
Below is a number of images taken from the videos to give you an idea:
The disc from 1986 was dirty and did not transfer as clean as the others. Sorry.

Here is a pic of the DVD. This is NOT a sticker - it is printed directly to the 30-year DVD and will not smear, smudge, lose color, etc. Anyone who has bought DVDs from my company in the past can tell you about how the label is done.
I will post a pic of the case when it is ready.
Again, these will ship no later than Wednesday, April 2.

For those who have sent payment via PayPal or called in a credit card order these are shipping today. I will also be finding out the cost to ship to Canada for all who have asked.
Thanks and I really hope y'all like it!

I have been told by Karen (my shipping gal) that the cost to send the DVD to Canada via USPS Priority Mail is (and I can't believe it is this much!) $16.00. I asked her about FedEx - she just walked away which lets me know that I did NOT want to know their cost.
That would make the total $31.00. I will also offer this (in case some of you live close to one another) : The first DVD will be $31.00 and any additional DVDs that I can fit into the envelope (which is about 3 more) will only be $10.00 each.
Let me know if any of you are interested.
Thanks!

BTW: USPS is the best way to send to Canada - any of the 'courier' services charge a stupid brokerage fee on top of the original shipping costs.
wow cool !! how much is Pontiac paying you to do this??? or do you pay them??
How much are you donating to a worthy Fiero cause??
Give me one free Tim and I won't tell the boys at Pontiac.... j/k
Actually I have made GM aware of this a number of weeks ago when this project was in the early stages. They requested a copy and one was sent to the appropriate department with the first shipment yesterday.
OK… I just got this DVD and I have to say it is worth every dime. I’m sitting here watching it and thinking to myself “dam that’s a cool car” If you own a Fiero you have to get this. Thanks Tex
Got mine yesterday. A 'must have' for every Fiero Fan! It made me want to dig my 'Members Only" jacket out of the closet and throw Hall and Oats on the record player
