Today , I got the right front end taken apart and replaced the upper and lower control arms. Along with this, I am up-grading to poly bushings. So, I will be doing all plus the cradle over the rest of this winter. With the right side done, the wheel lined back up to where I do believe that getting an alinement done put my car back to normal again. Started working on the body panels also and the door. Thank you everyone for your well wishes and support.

Thank you all. After taking off the front wheel, looks like I will be needing a upper control arm. The lower looks fine. I may as well do a suspension up grade at this time as all the bushings on the car are the original ones that came on the car. Under the car looks ok , no damage to anything else. I will need to center the wheels and the steering wheel when I take it all apart. So, I need a passenger door with glass and mirror (all manual by the way), right side marker lamps (front and rear) and an upper control arm, and a right front quarter panel. All to fit a 85 SE .

Tonight on the way home from work , I had the misfortune to be run off the road. Bounced off the guard rail and finally got stopped. Its dark so I dont know the total extent of the damage as of yet. I will have to get the car to a body shop to see how bad the frame is. Looks like I will need a door with glass and mirror, side marker lamps for the right side. I may have some front right suspension damage. I will know more tomorrow in the day light. I am ok.

Im back in Huntsville safe and sound. Had a GREAT time meeting people and making new friends. The run was lots of fun and could only be made better by doing another one. On the down side, I lost a camera so, if anyone found a small digital camera, please contact me. Thanks Charlie for the invite.

General Discussion / I have a job
« on: August 30, 2009, 11:22:45 am »
Just to let everyone know , I have a job again. After 4 1/2 months its great to be employed again. The only problem is that I now work at Ft. Eustis Va. I had to sell the yellow 86 GT and my car is parked in Atlanta at my moms without a tag (for the first time in its life). I dont see attending any club meetings or functions in the near furture. I will be checking here from time to time. I checked out the pics from killboy , looks like ya'll were having a great time. Everyone take care and I hope to see ya'll soon. Ron

Warning to all who drive 441 going to Cherokee,,, the state troopers always sit on both sides of Cowee mountain here just outside of Franklin. sometimes you get thru without seeing them, sometimes you dont. NC has alot of un-marked cars and suv's that you never know who they are until the lights are flashing. From what I have seen and have been told all the chargers have the hemi engine, so unless you have a V8 you dont want to try them in a contest of speed. (dont ask me how I know)

Did a little investagation on helmets for use at a track day. If you go to the snell foundation site it will list helmets that are certified for use in motorsports. The current standard is SA2000. It is about to be up-graded to SA2005. There is a long list of helmets that meet the standard, so if you are looking for a track day helmet, here would be a good place to start. From what I have found, helmets start as low as 75.00 dollars and go up.

Hey, its always good to meet another Fiero person. As for the drive, I think that the Tennessee club may be closer to me, NC hasnt been able to get a club up and running to my knowelege, but Charlie ask me to join the Ga club for St.Pats Parade a few years ago and I joined the club. At that time I lived in Fayetteville and had an 8 hour drive to get to a meeting. I have moved since then and now have a 2.5 hour drive to get to a meeting. Join us and have more fun!
