it's been so long that i posted i dont remember where i left off at. currently it starts and runs. shifts through the gears ok.
brakes are not working correctly. one caliper is not getting fluid, and i haven't had time to look in to it. i probably need to manually reset the flute valve.
but at least i can drive it in and out of the garage "if" i ever get time to play with it again.
a car is coming over today to have me true up the spoked wheels. i haven't tuned spoked wheels since the 80's when motorcycles started using mags. and i wasn't very good at it back then so this will be a re-learning experience.
but rest assured that it's still here

I can help you with the lug nuts, Right headlight door (even red), And the brake proportioning valve. The valve is out of an '84 and the parts car I have had brakes, so it should be OK. No power mirrors, I don't think, but I'll look. Now that I think of it, I should have a power mirror somewhere........ I should have the screws for the armrests as well in one of the parts cars. Yours for the shipping, if you want them. Want I should send the water pump for the V8 along? Send me a PM.

Edited to add................. I'm coming to Topeka to Heartland Park to work races this weekend. I can bring the stuff along if you want to run over to pick them up. I'll check on the parts tomorrow to make sure everything's in order. PM me with a phone number or something.

Well I have decided to keep Anna in the family. My stepson will be 16 in less than a year.
These are some things I need that I have posted in the mall. i am hoping for free, but cheap is good too.
Hopefully the box of parts was still there at HPT for you. Sorry I couldn't hang around and wait for you. It seems like we always just manage to miss each other.
(I actually don't give a hoot about meeting you, but I'd sure like to meet Polly! )

Good luck getting her back on the road. I really hope your step son enjoys the car and appreciates what your doing for him. Fiero's make great first cars, I got mine when i was 15 and it's the only car I really enjoy driving.

well Anna is gone. sold for $800.00 i dont want to look at my receipts, i hope i made my money back on what i spent on her. but there's no way i made any money on the time i spent working on her.
at least she has gone to an acquaintance of mine. so hopefully she will be back when something needs repaired.
