I for one would love to join in with you on the drive over. It really would be neat to have a whole line of Fieros for the cruise through town on Friday.
As for the show on Saturday, you had better be an early riser or you will be relegated to the park land down by the river. We didn't get there early enough last year and were down in the park. Hopefully we will get started early enough to be on the street this year.

What time do you need to be in C-Ville( sorry I used to live there and we called c-ville) to line up for the parade around town on Friday? Does it travel quite slow?
You are supposed to be lining up at 4:00 pm and I believe that they start driving around through town at 7:00. And they do drive pretty slow. Even though there are cops all around we did see some hot rods doing burn outs. Mostly though it is a low speed cruise through all the neighborhoods with people waving and having fun watching all the cars. There are people out all over town sitting in lawn chairs and having cookouts along the route. I did see some cars that tossed candy to the kids too.

I was concerned about idling all over town. Cant do burn outs anyway, but the last time I did something like that(GR Metro cruise) my engine quit. Why not sure but it did start up after a few minutes and I was able to drive 1/4 at a time till I got home. The first time it happened I had it flat bedded home after the wrecker dropped it off I changed the fuel filter and for 3-4 months it was ok. Second time I just drove the bucket of bolts home and installed a new fuel filter. So I thought I would ask if they idle around town? I probably should just change the fuel filter before I go.

I up loaded a few photos on the face book page and my website. Steve and I were there and no other Fieros... There was some very nice toys there, check out the pics and see. Even the pinup girls were out.
Dust it off and join us for Gilmore Car Museum’s 5th Annual season opening event.

I got a few before my camera battery went dead but have not had time to look at them. It was good to see so many Fieros in one place, and to meet all the club members. will post pics soon.
Funny my battery went dead too. Then I killed my phone battery.. Both were charged before I left the house, I didn't think it was that cold.... I had a nice time never found James, he must have been on a walkabout or hiding inside with the warmth.
My brother rode along and we were walking around looking at cars. Keep moving keep warm, lol. We checked out your car and then saw you leaving. I guess next time we need to come up with a meeting place and caravan to a show.
Sounds Great. I helped daughter #3 move into an apartment. Her friend needed her to move out(she owned the house) as her friend's boyfriend was moving in. She was having a hard time finding people on such a short notice and Dad could not let her down. Who all was from the GR metro area that went? I hope someone has pictures, I would like to see all the cars.
Yes I know about the 2.5. I had an 88 for 12 years. Thank you for the pictures. My car is isnt show quality. Snapperhead posted some on the web site. Unfortunately this POS Dell computer will not show all the pictures that he took. I have the same problem with the pictures he took on Saturday. This dell computer is first class junk.
