Post by: Fierofool on February 26, 2012, 10:48:11 pm: Looks like the previous owner neglected and molested it a bit but it's still salvageable. With some Simple Green and Mr. Clean Magic Erasers most of your hard interior parts should clean up well.

It appears that everything's there, including the Indy badges. There are a few things specific to the Indy, but for the most part, everything is replaceable with parts from all other year Fieros.

Welcome to Fieros and the Georgia Fiero forum.

Oh, I thought you meant that if you left them in one spot for a little while you had an oily spot.

Never mind, that's Harley Davidson I'm thinking of.

And not only that... If you leave two of them together in the dark, they breed.

Aw, Jeez! And I thought that was transmission fluid on Ray's rear bumper.
