Title: Tinker Toy
Post by: Kevin on August 06, 2006, 11:16:55 am
  Meet my new toy which I brought home last week. Its an '87 GT with an auto tranny but that can be swapped. It feels good to be in a Fiero again. Kevin

First rule...always check the goods under the bra!  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

Second...  Lose the wing, looks a lot nicer.

third...they stole you tire or the drivers side shock is a jack stand   :o

Looks nice, Kevin.   O0  (fix the fan?)

  That is a jack stand. I did fix the fan, I used some bits off of James, did the sender fix so the coolant temp gauge now works. Due to the temp last Tuesday I assumed the check engine light was coming on because of heat, it seems now it was because of an EGR issue so I have to troubleshoot that. You wouldn't happen to have an EGR solenoid in your pile o' parts would you?
  All it needed for safety was a ball joint and it needs one more E test before I can plate it. 
  The seat went easily and it looks great. Thanks Gary,  Kevin

Nice looking car!

I am still looking for another car... slowly.. lol. I am hoping to have one before the end of this month.  There is one on trader right now for $950ish which is in the range I want to pay, so I might be heading to TO to see it.  We shall see.  Where did you find this one Tinker?

Wow, Chris haven't heard from you in a dog's age. I found this one on a car lot in town. If I see any more around I will let you know. If you don't mind a few dents I can give you a good deal on a low milage '86 I have in my garage. >:D  Kevin

Hmm.. I having to drive around and take a look at the lots in town then.  Do you have some pictures of your car?  And of course.. hows the rust :P  E-mail me the specs on your car again, since I haven't been keeping up lately :P

I'm only kidding Chris it is more like one huge dent making it about two feet shorter in the front. I wouldn't want to sell it to you. Kevin
