Hope so. I know about work schedules, I had to work & missed the Daytona show. I had already reserved a room and everything.. That sucked.

I told them, there is no way I'm missing this show.

See ya.

No promises, I work on Saturdays

Dave;
I saw a yellow GT crusing on 41 south in PG today any ideas...? ( your turf )

I spun a rod bearing and trashed the crank in my 2.8 trying to get over to the Daytona show.
Just bought a 3.4 to swap in this past weekend and I'm installing all new bearings, rings, timing set etc. before dropping the cradle on my GT and putting it in.
Here's where I'm at today:


I'm trying like hell to get this done in time for the show down there and I still hope to make it.
Anyone want to come over for a cradle dropping and engine swap party? I'll supply the beer and food

I know them, they stop by the Blockbuster now and then in my shopping center. They have yellow pin stripping across the taillights. I talked to them a few months ago.

We had a white GT with chrome wheels in the parking lot today also. First time Ive seen that one.

Last week, I saw a red coupe in the Town Center mall parking lot. I left them a card & info about the show.

Paul, I drove to your shop tonight (6 pm) testing the new caps & t-stat in the Formula. Seems to be working okay so far.

Slight change of plans Shawn. I have a new friend that owns an auto service garage and he's offered me use of one of his lifts as soon as I'm ready.
This cradle drop should be a *breeze*....oops, I just cursed it now

Ok I am quoting myself on this one.

CoolBlue, being the quick witted person he is, decided to reply to this post by email. When I checked my email this morning and seen his reply I just about fell out of my chair laughing.

I am posting his reply here cause those of you who know what I went through with my swap will find it funny.

"How about this one ? Ha ha (just kidding !!)"

Hi Jimmy, Glad you liked that. I was worried you would take it wrong.

As Paul posted earlier, the club putting on the show cut us a break, making it 1/2 price for the Fiero's !!!

So how about it ? Who else will step up the the "microphone" & say they are comming ?

Dave, I talked to another Cape Coral person today that said he would make the show. He visits the forum now and then so maybe he will see this post.
Good Luck
Gary

well i just got back from Miami and in three days on the road i didnt see not one Fiero...? I thought the Easter Bunny Drove a pink Fiero...?

fix it fiero pizza day Sat 4/15 at 4150 whidden shop...call for directions...fix those small problems with expert guidence...etc, 941 627 6007

I'll be there but w/o my Fiero

I don't think I can make it but, Dave C. (Suncoast Fieros Prez) said that he was going to try to make it and is calling some of the club members that are not on-line yet. I have a feeling that there will be at least 20 Fieros at this event.
