Cool. I'm hoping to hit the show when it makes it around to Detroit this year. First week of March, I believe...I want to take a close look at some of the Riddler cars.

How many pictures you guys want? I took about 100 today, all are now 640x480 80 kb each. I don't want to go overboard, lol, but there were some badass cars there.
My 2nd favorite car there, a '96 Corvette Grand Sport :
I'm going to go pick up my car tomorrow, and I probably won't be taking any more pictures. I missed Don Hulse's green '86 SE, I might go get a picture of that. We were supposed to have about 11 cars and only ended up with 5. At the last second World of Wheels cut 5 of our spots, I was originally cut, but Sandi and John Holcomb let me have their place (Thanks guys!) in the stock '88 GT slot. An Indy was supposed to show, but it had a blow-out coming down, and none of our "back-ups" were ready. So I'm not sure if we can still compete as a club? I think we needed 6 cars. Oh well, it was a great show and I'm glad I was able to show my car.
I never realized that '63 Vette fastback came with a non-split rear window. Didn't think they started that til '64. But with all the other mods on the car it may well have had a '64 or '65 roof section put on it. The last I heard the '63 split windows were commanding HIGH dollar as collectors... Got to drive one once when they were still new. Loved it. Thanks for all the great pics Tinton and for stirring up some memories.

This is Ron Rizzi's spotless 84 SE. Only has 20-something K on the odo. Craig's Artero is in the back.
And an interior shot of Ron's SE. Did I mention "spotless"?
Onle last pic of Ronnie's "Ghost Pegasus".
I took a few other pictures, but they were either too washed out, or out of focus, or too dark. Probably because my camera batteries tanked. (Unfortunately, before I got any pics of the two ladies. )
Congrats to all of the participants for pulling this thing together on such short notice. We only had a couple of weeks to prepare. Hopefully, the promoters (and the rest of the public) were pleased with what they saw and we will be invited back, with more slots available to us.
Also... I have been reading and hearing about some people who approaced us with other interesting Fiero info. I'm sure we'll hear more about that, later. I believe that we recruited at least two additional members to the club, who didn't even know that we existed.
Looks like a lot of beautiful cars there!! I'd love if you guys could send me all the hi-res Artero Photos you have. Looks like a wonderful machine. I'm building one up and I don't have that many pictures and have never seen one in person. Thanks!
Just got back from the World of Wheels. Wonderful turnout. I'm talking about the Georgia Fiero people. Thanks to all of you who jumped in and helped Joe with this event. I won't name you because with my memory, I'll surely forget someone. Thanks to those of you who showed your cars. Thanks to those of you who offered to show your cars. Thanks to those of you went to the trouble of prepping your cars and then weren't able to show. Thanks to all who helped with getting us in and out, and with manning the booth, and all those who worked in the background.
As has already been mentioned, we had 5 cars on display. The results were totally unexpected. Of the 5 cars, 5 of them won awards. YES!!!!!! FIVE AWARDS!!!!!!! Don Hulse for his 86SE Ron Fulcher for his 88GT-4.9 Jonathan (L) and Ron (R) Rizzi for their 84SE Joe Goodman accepting for Nathan James's 88GT Craig Brown for his Artero

Hey guys , we just got home about an hour ago. Thanks to ALL that pulled this together in such short notice. Especially Joe Goodman (NYJoe) and Charlie Sewell (Fierofool). They did most of the leg work for us. It sucked that we had our number bumped to 6. We had more really nice cars ready to show when they cut our number of partcipants. I'm sorry to all you guys and gals that didn't get to show. But I also thank you to all who made the decisions for the final number. We had a great time and I think we made a good showing. We got alot of attention. Lots of pictures were taken. Raydar , thanks for posting my "Pegasus" for me.Your picture turned out pretty good. And , congratulations to everyone for their awards !! (Edit) They had their own judges.We were classed in "1983-1996 conventional Sports Class" I think Craig Brown was in "Full Sports Class"

Argh, I wish I was there for the award ceremony! I'm glad Joe was able to accept the award for me, he deserved an award himself for the great job he did over the past month coordinating this event. Even though we were cut to 6 cars, we got a very nice spot right in the middle of the floor by the concession stand, and on Saturday (I was there most of Saturday) it was packed! I just wish that I could have been there for the awards ceremony! But it could be worse, my car could have had a blowout on the way there like the Indy that was supposed to show. I didn't even know about the awards ceremony, and I thought there wasn't really "judging" and we would get a group award. Its amazing that all 5 cars got trophies though, I hope we can participate next year!

It's funny to see the cars that were just here at the Mpls WOW a couple of weeks ago! They had the Batmobile, the Voodoo, That orange car with the "skull" intake, a Ford GT (not sure if it's the same, I don't recall what color it was), and I'm sure a few more! Must be nice to be able to have the time & money to travel a full "show circuit" like that.
They could be... as of recent years, Jaguar has actually had 2 green colors. Traditional "British Racing Green" (which does not have any metallic to it), and "Jaguar Racing Green" (which does have the metallic).
BTW - I like that 2nd photo of my car... not sure if I've seen that exact one before! Although after looking at it, that was prior to my new paint job - so at that time it was actually a custom-mixed GM Corvette Green (with gold metallic added)... still it's nearly the same shade in the end!
