Curious how many active members are still left from when this forum started? I joined in May of 99'

Was actively reading at that time as a lurker...from Auburn Hills, Michigan.

Then life got in the way about a year later...sold the current Fiero I had and wouldn't be able to make it back to PFF and Fieros till 2012.

1 month ahead of you, but I read before I joined. Found it looking for stuff when I built my Ferrari 308 kit. It was fun then for years before all the antagonists moved in to take over

A 99er to the Fiero scene but only discovered the forum in 2001 - gosh - has it been that long? I'm not on as often as I used to be but still enjoy the cars and camaraderie when life permits.

I don't remember what year I first registered, but I lost my provider and had to start over with a new registration. Prior to PFF I frequented alt.autos.fiero which was a newsgroup site run by Freddie Clark of Connecticut. Mr. Potatohead as he was known.

Not an original member but discovered it in early 2003. In 1999 I was actively searching the NET for Fiero information and printing it out to make a reference book for myself. I still have the book
Purchased my first Fiero in 1996.

Well, I was here since 2000 and still read the forum even though I am Fieroless.

Been perusing it since 99 at least.

Joined in 2001...

Not as active as I used to be but neither is the forum. I keep looking for the "like" button but can't find it.

I found this site in 1999, joined 2001. Before that I was part of DFML, Dutch Fiero Mailing List. Every communication went by email at that time. It was funny to find out Fiero.nl was hosted by Cliff, also here in The Netherlands. Although being low profile for quite a while I still check the forums everyday

There are a few of us still kicking around.

October of '99. Back when it would take 3-4 days for a single response, and we had 300-400 members. Ahhh, the good ole days.

LOL!

ahh the mailing list days....

Same here

I started doing the mailing list thing in '95. That is probably when I got addicted to hitting 'check mail' every 2 minutes to see if there was anyone with some Fiero related questions or comments. That was a crazy way of doing things. I was a lurker here since the beginning. Now I just come back every now and then to check in. What a great forum!

Yup.

I was turned on to the forum by Travis (1fst2m6), and have been an addict... errrr... fan, ever since.

Like a bunch of you, I spent a good amount of time surfing Pennock's well before I actually joined.

January 2000 is when I first officially became a member, but I was registered under a different username.

I can hardly believe it's been over 15 years!

I joined March 28, 1999, some 2 1/2 months after Cliff created the forum (PFF was born on Jan. 13, 1999). I believe I was the 51st or 52nd person to sign up and may be the "oldest" active member here (aside from Cliff).

**edited to say I did some research and I was the 51st person to register right behind 'theogre", which makes him the "oldest" active member of PFF (at least as far as I can tell). My first post was at 6:17 pm on the 28th and I found a post of his at 4:03pm.**

Here is a thread that not too many have seen. THIS is the first member on here. Also notice the 2nd post from Dave. He has been here since the first few months also.

Wow! Travis N2O days. Remember? Used so many tips from him. And who can forget Monkeyman! Those were good and fun days. These 16yrs went so quick! I also always still wonder where all those 99er members went. Did they sell? Lost interest like me? Lately I browse and I notice it is mostly newer (2012+) people posting.

Holy smokes!
I wish that there was a way to tell who registered in what order.

Was lurking a few years before I signed on.. Mailing list... Wow,yeah.. Got some good deals off of that!

I haven't been on for a number of months now but I am still alive and kicking. Fieroless now as of Sunday though. I had a bad car accident and my t-topped 88 GT is totalled and been declared a total loss.

Any chance of making a PDF (or similar) of that available to download? "Older" info is getting harder to find.

Compared to yall, I'm a relative noob with only a decade on the forum I'll get off your lawn now

Still kicking, active reader since Cliff started it, but didn't register until 2001.

I started in the spring of '99. my account may still be active. I wasn't sure how serious of a group this would be so I used the name "George". Lost my password and resubscribed a year later under "banditbalz". I check off topic every day since I have joined. Seen a lot of "know it all" guys come and go. Anybody remember Triad? or Grinthock? There are still a few guys here that talk a lot, but I doubt they will be here for the long run. Anyways, I have had 2 fieros and owned my 2nd (1986 silver Fiero GT) for 20 consecutive years. I believe I still hold the record for fastest stock Fiero (14.7@92 mph, 0-60 5.9 sec).

I was born in the 90's, does that count?

quote Originally posted by DKcustoms: I was born in the 90's, does that count?

Lol! I was 20 when I signed up, born in 79'

Funny how many of you I remember, very suprised by the number of "old timers" that are still here. I still have the same 87 gt I had when I signed up, owned eight others over the years. Down to two now, also have a 88 formula.

Jim, I thought you must have died.
I been off and on trying to get a hold of you for seems like two years!

Dammn
Jim are you okay let us know where the wreck ends up.

I will let you know because it will go cheap. 61K 2.8 in it but the body is fairly damaged. The space frame is fine though. Also has brand new 18" C5 mags and tyres with 0 mileage. Would make a great kit car base. It was only written off because it has a broken t-top, windscreen, both tail lights, front fascia , rear fascia and a chunk is missing from the rear clip. I just don't have the inkling to buy it back and fix it. Looking at a Corvette convertible or a 63 Lincoln convertible at present to replace it.

I was part of the Fiero yahoo group in the 90s, I would read here, but didn't sign up until 2003
I lost my first username password, so I added the 247
I remember that "Fiero" was the very first thing I ever looked up on the new thing called "the internet"

Oh yeah I always enjoyed Monkeyman's posts. From personal experience, I sold my last Fiero in '04, after buying a new WRX in '03. Lost interest in the Fiero, did the WRX scene very briefly. Not the same at all. Traded in the WRX in '07, and found a Fiero I wanted in '13. Now I gotta get it running!

One of the few '99ers still left. I sold my last Fiero about 10 years ago and never figured I'd get another. Now, I'm looking for one, again. It really IS an addiction. Nice to "see" some "old faces". (Jim--I still have that money you sent me. ) I never really went away although I frequented the TO/T forum much more until recently. There's a lot to catch up on in the Fiero world.

Anyway, it's nice to see you, my old friends!
