Nice that’s expensive though are we going to be able to patronize that? I know I’ve felt guilty showing up to the BBQ place and not ordering anything cause I don’t want bbq at 10AM lol. $19 for a burger wow. It sure looks like a neat place to hang out though. Definitely beats getting cacti in you at the place we’re at now.

General Fiero Discussion / Re: 86 Fiero @ Augusta pull a part

« on: December 11, 2023, 04:20:47 pm »

That wasn't Jason's car.  Is it a manual or automatic?  Did you get the parts you needed? Assuming you're the one who got the right door.

Yup I got the door, it’s a getrag 5-speed but the only other manual trans parts I saw were the slave cyl and shift cables. Someone wanted some of the other manual swap parts pretty bad they went and got the pedal assembly and shifter.

Anyone want to help get this 5-speed? I could really need it for my 3800sc. Pull-a-Part said they lost their parts picker guy a couple months ago and can’t get anyone else hired for it. So they won’t pull it for me. I didn’t have the right tools load in my car or the space to transport with that door in my car so I was thinking of going back. They said they can help with a forklift and a rental cherry picker. Can I just cut all the wiring and hoses and unbolt the cradle and lift the car off of it? Maybe roll the cradle around on a dolly so I can get the trans out from there?

If I do it myself, I’m guessing I need furniture dolly, my big floor jack, and my impact?

The cars been there since August and is overdue for the crusher they said it might be there through end of the month.

You've been on the runs before.  How does it handle the curves?

It handles decent, not bad for FWD but has cheap tires and rear drums. I’ll probably take it if the Fiero isn’t ready. I just put new brakes on it front and rear and it’s got performance pads up front.

Fiero, I got the brakes all put together yesterday but when I started it there was a leak. Got on it again this evening and 1 of the hoses out back wasn’t tight, tightened and been bleeding and checking all the hoses to make sure they’re tight.

Great.  If the Fiero isn't ready don't you have an MR?

Nope, sold it years ago, only other thing I could drive is my Sonic.

Does anyone have a drone that could go along on the scouting run?  I'd like to have some aerial pictures for the RFTH 28 Tshirt.  I already have an image, but I would like a different angle.

I have a drone. Been working on the brakes on my car, west coast fiero pulled through and I got my parts. I’m hoping to be ready and the car tested in time for Saturday.

Haven’t been sure if I could make it, I’ve been having problems with my drivers rear caliper. Been waiting on a shipment from the Fierostore and it hasn’t arrived yet. Wheel/hub heat up and it’s worse if I drive it on the highway, was hoping my calipers would arrive so I could go. I took it apart last weekend and lubed everything but it’s still doing it.

Sounds nice, I usually look for excuses to drive my 88 coupe unless it’s raining.

Sorry you're under the weather. Hope you feel better. I am too, but I also tested negative for the 'Rona, just before I left the house.
I at least tried to give everyone a chance to not get too close. 
Was good to see all the folks, as well as a couple of "long lost" members, who have drifted back to the madness.

Thanks for the encouragement, it’s taken about a week but I’m finally not coughing too much, Saturday I was at that stage where my nose ran like a faucet and I’d cough so much I’d have trouble talking, that mucus is infectious so I stayed in and worked on my DD. If it were earlier on with just a sore throat I would’ve gone. Hard to hide I was sick the way I was though. Hopefully you’re better now too.

Ok Charlie I bought a shirt, good the club getting more money!

Cool, I made sure to pay my membership after the last meeting. I’ll also pay for a t-shirt if there’s 1? Or an old rfth shirt?

Wish I could have gone, I’ve had a cold the past few days and didn’t want to infect you guys. Got tested and I don’t have COVID. Seems like I caught it from going to pull a part last weekend. It started 2 days after going there. Good meeting?

General Fiero Discussion / Re: Have you seen a Fiero today?

« on: January 06, 2023, 06:25:59 pm »

Saw a white notchback 87-88 on Delk Rd the other day, first I’ve seen in a while. I’ve been driving mine a lot but wasn’t that day, it was raining pretty bad.
