Just thought I'd pop in and let everyone in the Fox Valley Group know that I'm hosting a Fiero Cruise this Sunday. I realize I should've posted earlier. but actually I did. it General Chat.
It's my birthday weekend. so I thought the best present I could every have is a bunch of fieros in my driveway that weren't mine. hahaha
anyway, the actual "CRUISE" starts at 1:00pm. I have a course that has some straight roads and curved bits planned out. there will be a photoshoot at a local park.
Figuring my new 3.4L swap went bad, I have re-installed my 40+mpg Iron Duke and IZUZU Transmission back in just for this weekend.
shoot me a PM or just reply back here in the Fox Valley Thread
I'm in Pewaukee, WI, 53072 near the Walmart and Cost Co off of Capitol Drive (so you can figure out how far you are from me)
There is only one guideline - YOU MUST HAVE A FIERO, or at least be in one (if you sit in yours while being towed it counts. haha)
See You There
Current Guest List: 1. Steve (ME ME ME) 2. Tommy 3. Devin 4. Chad 5. Zach 6. 7. 8. 9. 10...........
as for what was in the pizza - WD-40 and Castrol GTX...lol (If Jeremy Clarkson can use it, so can I. hahaha)

I'd be there, but still waiting on tags. Damn DMV is slow! Guess I'll just have to put some miles on the GTO while I'm waiting!
BTW...I really, promise I haven't forgot about buying those seats. I've been working on some other stuff lately that have been taking up a good portion of my time.

all the more reason to drive it. what's the point of all that new stuff if it doesn't get driven much lol
Hey steve since your a fiero parts hoarder, do you have a really nice setr of the rear connecting rods/ tie rods? I think thats the source of my vibration in the back, I also need a steering damper and cradle bushings and rear a arm bushings if ya got them id trade ya my gt nose with all the headlight setup for what I need. or if ya like cash I can do that too but for sure I really need a great set of the rear links I dont want to shake my new wheels off on the way to the dells. Yes I am going I just need to book a hotel yet. I am waiting to do it till I am sure the car will be safe to drive there with my daughter in it.

I have a mint condition steering dampener that works flawlessly as for the rear links. I know I don't. however I might be able to get a set from the guy who's buying my 1986 SE. PM me a reminder and I'll call him tomorrow.
then the bushings...ALUMINUM, buy them and you'll be much happier theres someone selling them right now for $60 shipped in the mall I believe. quick buy them or I will
and I'm not a hoarder :P I want to sell it all, which means I have no emotional attachment to any of it. tell you what. I'll give anyone who wants my "hoarded" collection in trade for 5 crisp $100.00 bills I need money for some frame rail help and a paint job from a certain someone
and yes I noticed I used a lot of smilies. I'm in a very good mood right now

Wish I could but in no way it will make it that far, I just noticed a monumental coolant leak from below I think its just below the fire wall aera on the right side so prob the heater core tube on the right side rubber line. I am going to go today to see if I can get ball joints for it too. I am thinking of a spring thrashing day for the club to help me rebuild the suspension on my car I have all the poly stuff for the front so its just a matter of doing it. Steve I will buy that damper you have just shoot me a message of how much you want for it ill send ya some cash. I also need some gt door trim clips if you got them I am going to put that new door shell on you send me and the clips I got will die lol!
Hey guys, two weeks from this sat I am setting our first club get together for the season here! Lets get our cars ready for the dells!! Mine needs new ball joints and steering damper installed I figure we can pound it out fast while doing other stuff to everyone else s cars too! so what do ya need fixin here is your chance lets pound them out all in one day! when dells show comes I am planning on going from Thursday to Sunday morning I am bringing my daughter Zoie so we can play in the water park!
Hey Jets...you should bring that car up here. I have all the tools you need and we could get it pounded out in one day. Maybe some lowering springs installed too...

OK sounds good but I need the parts first. I tried to order them tonight but no luck Rodneys site was not workin right.
My dad just bought back his 88 CJB GT (yes, we both have them now). He is the original and now 3rd owner of the car. It's got 18K miles and its stupid clean. If I get all the maintenace done on the car, I'll bring that along to the club get together!

A road trip to Green Bay for car work sounds good to me!!
Bad news, I am celebrating Easter that Saturday with my family.
I got to get the parts first, I should prob get on that lol! ill text tommy and see if he is pickin them up or ill try the website again now that Rodney says its fixed.
Hey Jets..did you change the date of the club get together? 2 weeks from your post is Easter Weedend. I know I and Steve are doing Easter with family. What about the weekend of the 14/15?
It sure has been quiet around here, where did everyone go? Are you all too busy eating cheese or something?
I'm just working to try and get my car ready for the dells. Replaced the rear wheel bearing to go on a little ride down by me, and noticed my rear tie rods are loose. On my way to the ride, I find the front brakes metal to metal (squealers did NOTHING). In changing the pads I find I now need to change one of the front wheel bearings too So my list: Replace front wheel bearings (both) Replace motor mount Replace cradle bushings Replace rear inner and outer tie rods Get 4 wheel alignment Replace tires Paint
In that order. I really hope I can fund and accomplish all this by the Dells. I have the motor mount and cradle bushings, and will pick up the wheel bearings shortly. But the tie rods and tires will be expensive.
How about you? Will you have your chop at the dells?
I hear ya tommy, I need to do my front bearings as well now that I finished up the rear. Seems like the car is fighting me tooth and nail to go that far!!!
Hey did you guys know about the show in two rivers april 25th???? I guess they have a fiero class
Chris were the heck are ya!!!! stop by one of these nights I am going to prob go over by doug this weekend and cut a fiero in half!
Guys! We have alittle more than 30 days to get out fieros ready I'm only slightly panicing..... There's much to do and very little time. I have the following to do, Make the dam thing reliable Weld a trunk in Fix alittle cancer Get the rear bumper replaced with the formulas and paint the bumper Get the interior touched up and Last but not least GET THE DAM THING TO WORK! Ugh lots to do
------------------ 1987 Black GT Custom interior with Mr. Mikes seats Series 1 L67 W/ 5 speed getrag! 1988 Formula-GT
I am going to try and go!! I made the prototype of my turn signal ring tonight and.....................IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I need to add more led's there is only one then the ring will glow all the way around, this will surround the fog light projector beam in the bucket of my new setup. I need amber as well this will be the turn signal.

Perfect! Since I haven't met you in person yet we will definitely have to make it a point to find each other! Unfortunately my Fiero more than likely won't be making the show, but my dad's 88 GT will be there.

So my list:
