Yes. By keeping Chester's thread alive it's the least I can do. I hope he knows we haven't forgotten him, Elvira, and The dirty Rat.

Besides, who wants to return and find out their thread has died.

Here's Chester at B&B

No problem. Besides, several newbees have started threads regarding "how wide can you use on a Fiero" and this bit of history just might be helpful. Plus Chester's has many other goodies that may become useful for others (multi-piller pods, F355 Nose)

Good Threads never die.

Hey Dirty,
I thought your post died (morphed to the ether of the internet), I am very glad the car is making progress. Can we see any pics of the inside? Bump-Bump- Bump

Cordially,
Kevin

Hate to bust your bubble, but have you noticed that 99% of the posts are Curley bumping the thread to keep it alive?

I hope Chester brings it back to life someday, but it hasn't happened yet.

He just posted in a thread the other day about getting the old gas out of the tank so that he could put new in. Maybe he is on his way to bringing it back to life?

This is good news.

Anything new with this?

Bump. Good threads should never die.

and because I got a pm from Chester.

free bump.

This car was in the MALL in September!

I think he sold the drivetrain but I don't know about the car

I think Chester has left the Fiero community...

It's a shame he never got to fully realize his dream.

Who knows the Rat may return someday !

So does Chester have the car still w\o the drivetrain or did it go complete? From what I read in the mall it wasn't clear.

i think he sold just the drivetrain.

His last post in his mall thread was that the drivetrain was sold and was not selling anything else - so maybe he has future plans for the car. I hope so...really like the traga look.

The drive train is sold and will eventually end up in an 88 Mera.

Sounds like Chester is a victim of this recession and needed some cash. Looks like he sold the drivetrain, then the rest of the car. Chester's interest in Fieros reads as thought it has been sold.

R.I.P. Dirty Rat.

May your components live forever.

Bump casue, "Good cars should never die"-- they're parted out and live on in other Fieros.

Am I late to the info? Who purchased the drivetrain to this masterpiece?

The drive train will eventually end up in an 88 Mera project car.

Anybody talk to Chester lately ? How is he and the wife doing ?

Slightly off topic, but is B&B Spyders at all related to B&B Manufacturing that was featured on Kit: An Autobody Experience? When the first show featuring them aired, I thought I saw a Ferrari kit in the background. They also mentioned picking up and moving to this new location.

just curious...

Let this thread die. Chester is long gone from the Fiero community. Good riddance.
