I'll be in Cumming Georgia tomorrow if anybody would like to get together. I should be there around 12 or 1. Give me a call if you want to meet up. I'll have a tow dolly behind the truck with an 87 GT on it, so where ever we meet lets make it someplace easy to get in and out of. 423---506---0594

Wish I could make it, but I'll be in church about that time.  Hope you don't hit bad weather on the way back.  If you do, STAY OFF THAT MOUNTAIN!

Todays trip has been cancelled until next Saturday. My heating unit has gone out and I've got to get it fixed today.

I got 1 slightly used 87 SE convertible.


And I'm building a Fiero trailer.

Charlie next time your up this way I have a borrowed shop manual with the wiring diagrams and trouble shooting for the upshift light. You need to check it out. And somebody called me from the Pontiac Dealership thats closing up here and is giving me the Fiero shop manuals 1984, 1987, and 1988.

Yeah, might have to make a trip up that way soon.  Didn't you say you had a saddle tan seat cover set for 1 side? 

Looking at that 'vert, hope you pulled the dash & door panels.  Maybe even the doors and ground effects?  Mirrors, and other goodies?

On the convertable, I left everything on the car. It's at Julio's covered up until I need something. I'll check the seat skins and see what I've got.

I'm rebuilding an 88 2.8. I started rebuilding it yesterday morning and sold it last night along with an automatic transmission. I should be able to build a few more if anybody would be interested in buying them. I've also got a 2.5 to build and sell if anybody would want to buy it. I'll post them in the for sale section when I get them ready. I figured while business was a little slow I'd build some 2.5's and 2.8's and sell them cheap.

And Charlie I rechecked the crank after I polished it and it showed bad so I replaced it.

I've just about got the 2.8 built.


Look what I found on my car this morning.

I'm installing the 2.8 I rebuilt into the 85 SE I bought in Erwin. It's black with all the options and an almost perfect interior. Just needs paint.

I got it running today and it has great oil pressure. I only let it run for about 30 seconds because there's a leaking hose next to the radiator that needs to be replaced along with the slave cylinder, then it'll be ready to drive. The valves sounded good but the tach will have to be replaced. As soon as I get it done I've got it traded for an 86 SE V6 automatic with a 3.1 "stroker". Yea that's what I thought, I didn't know they made a 3.1 stroker, but I'm getting plenty of boot. ;D
