There were 10 Fieros in attendance, including mine. Kaz took a first place trophy for his car, Chester and Elvira took second place for the Dirty Rat, and Boomtastic took third for his front engined car. I even caught the strobe on Steves Indy. Jordans famous Fiero.
and Dave Paulk's finally painted car. It looks like a forest green with metal flake in it.

There were hundreds of other cars, but they weren't Fieros. When Eric or Rob started their cars, a crowd would gather to see their cars. Overall I had an excellent time at this show.

Steve changed the nose on Jordan's car for a change of flavor. He wanted to see what peoples reaction to the aero nose would be. He said he was planning on refitting the other nose when he reworks it to fit and look better. I forgot to mention. Kaz said that one of his rear wheel bearings was making noise. I have to admit,he is a brave soul to drive all the way from NY like that. I hope he makes it home alright. And Eric fixed the vacuum leak in his front engined car. It sounded real good and he did a couple of burn out later on. When he revved the engine hand, the car almost jumped over to the side.

Can someone tell us who is who in this picture..??
No prob Smoooooth! The 2 on the extreme left are just spectators. On the right at the back, you'll see 2 guys in orange shirts. They're from www.gorides.com and are interviewing me (I'm in the middle) for an upcoming show. (Note: Out of about 600 cars, they only did 6 interviews, and I was one of them!! Video will be posted when I get it from them sooner or later.) And that would be MsBeth running away from the camera on the far right.
It does look like Camaro scoops but it's not. I bought it from Race Tech in Canada

I have the same scoops on my car( got them from Canada too) but found out that they are the Camaro IROC scoops- A guy here in RI makes them for about $80 a set.

Engine is back in and finally seems to be running fine- As for shows lets see Rye is in NH and on the same day Fiore Pontiac (POCI) is having a show here in RI. Fiore is about 15 min. from my house and Rye is not.

Oh boy, did WE leave a lasting impression on the Spindles crowd this year! The V8's cleaned house for awards as well as after show play. Once we were done with the awards ceremony we jetted back to the cars and proceeded to give the people that were left a nice show of our own. Boomtastic started by leaving his so called "Crop circles" all over the place. Of course, I had to join in the festivities. We had a crowd gather as we were burning rubber. I don't have any miles on my build but just couldn't resist! So here we were, at an all muscle car show, with the 3 V8's laying tracks like no tomorrow! That was the first time EVER at this show that we had everyone’s undivided attention! It really changed the way people looked at the car. For those that missed this show, it was a great time had and I appreciated the effort that some have made to join the festivities and give us the opportunity to say fare well in person!

I wonder where Fiero5's pictures are. I know he took some.
Probably still uploading..
Looks like a small but great show, Lori and I contemplated taking a whirl-wind trip south saturday morning, but unfortunetly we had previous family plans.
Great pics guys and gals!!

I only took pictures of the Fieros but there were hundreds of other cars, probably over 600 easy. This show had everything from vintage cars and street rods to kit cars and modern foreign cars. I also forgot to mention the custom choppers that were right across from us, they were awesome.

Is it just me or does the large mouth of the front bumper look like its slightly larger on the left half than the other? It might just be the picture perspective... sweet ride nonetheless.

It would seem I took well over 100 pics but for some reason most of them are of "King" Boomtastic holding Court around his trusty steed.

MsBeth, one of these days, I'm going to get a chance to meet you and Boomtastic, and finally see the Pro-Street in person. And you can tell Boomer that when I do...I'm going to slap a big "HUSKERS" sticker on the back window...just to remind him where that car came from..

Sit tight with that sticker - I may be in your neck of the woods with it next year ..

The IROC Z was produced from 1985-1990.In all years of production they featured a black almost grill like set of hood louvers shaped in the same fasion as the ones pictured above. THOSE hoood scoops are from a 91-92 Z28 not a IROC Z.Nice try though!
