Anyone want to use the 87 or drive along in their own Fiero?  Let me know so I can get it gassed up if you want to drive it.

We're leaving shortly, too.  Tegan keeps asking to get on the road.

The first link shows no pictures.  Fierofool drove his yellow Fiero?  I guess the brakes were fixed, this last go-'round.

Yes.  Replaced the caliper and rotor and both rear brake lines and new Thermo Quiet pads.

Memory Lane will be closing in March. 

The cars will be put up for auction.

The auction will be in Charlotte, I think.

In a similar grain as Memory Lane, we met a couple of guys that have a large private collection in Athens, Ga.  Somewhere around 150 cars.  Not necessarily muscle cars, but a lot of cars from the first half of the 20th Century.  They said we could come and take a tour through their collection and there is no charge.  If enough people are interested in going, I can set up a group tour in the early part of next year.

Either one of the "bubble top" Impalas...

All I need are six numbers. The right six.

There's a 'Results' section listing prices from previous auctions.

Thanks for that.
Just like I thought... I have champagne tastes on a beer budget.

I'm really surprised, in general, though. The selling prices are all over the map. Some of them don't make a lot of sense.
And some of the sellers must have had absurd "reserves" set, based on the ones that didn't sell.

I think all of them were owned by the same people.  That was a private collection on display at the Memory Lane.
