BTW- my car was in the pic on the cover of the Oakland Press. I don't see the pic in the online version but I'm using a PDA maybe it's there in the full blown version.
Tracy was a cool guy to talk to. His Fiero monster was insane...
Ans last but not least:
Hmmm..there should have been more. I'll have to look into that....
Hat's off the Michigan Fiero Club and all other parties for getting this going. Great day (minus the 3 minute cloud burst) to look at a great group of cars.

Just through the sheer guilt they've instilled in me, these excellent pics have removed for me any doubt about the expense of soon having the front fascia of my `86 GT refinished and repainted, and adding a left rear quarter panel side panel scoop from The Fiero Warehouse that will be made functional with the stock Fiero CAI system.
Those changes won't make my car rival the appearance of the cars you've so thoughtfully provided us pictures of, but they will make me forget that my daily driver '86 GT currently has 60+ (I've stopped counting them) stone chips in its front fascia that drive me nuts every time I see them.
By the way, might anyone know the brand name of the wheels shown on these next two pics from RCR? I'd like to get wheels just like those, but I can't make out their brand name on my ratty computer monitor:

You're welcome. I think they were Boyd Coddington's

These are the best pics I've seen of the next gen prototype car. Is it me, or is that car ugly? Don't get me wrong, wud've loved to see the Fiero keep going, but not sure that's where I wud've wanted to see it go. Thanks again for the pics. Wish I cud've been there.

Fiero86 you made it! Glad you did. I was able to attend the 20th. Isnt it great seeing all those Fieros! Well I cant get the car to run correctly so I decided not to try to make it there. Thank you so much for the great pictures. I think I will have to check out the repair place out in Jenison that works on our cars. I cant figure out my problem.
Thanks

It is a shame that GM just a few years ago crushed the preproduction 89's that were setting at warehouse that Jim runs. Members of a Pontiac club from Australia took pictures of them. They would have made great show cars for GM/Pontiac to display. I have sold GM products for over 30 years and some times they do some dumb things.

Hey!...pswayne, do you have the hi-res version of this picture you could send me? The wife and I are actually in it (I'm the fat guy in the gray shirt talking to Jerry/Bobadoofunk next to his car near the bottom). If you get a chance, thanks.
Thanks to all who talked Fieros with us. We had a great time, too bad we showed up late and didn't get the car in. Oh well, there's always the 30th.

Well, here comes another batch of pictures! I'll try not to duplicate ones already posted. It was a great time. Thanks very much to all the michigan crew for putting on a great show. Really nice group. The rain held off, and my car made the trip both ways without complaining too much... what more can you ask for

I tried to get everyone but with classification, people leaving for breakfast and others arriving I missed many. I hope those were photographed by others.
