Title: Newbie - Intro
Post by: AJ_87Fiero on September 16, 2021, 11:17:35 am: Hello all ye mighty Fiero Lords and awesome Pontiac Heads!

Good Morning, Sirs!

I'm AJ, from South Duluth/Lawrenceville (I-85) area. I recently became the proud owner when I took the bold move to rescue a harrowed, badly beaten up, mistreated 87 FIERO (2.5 L, no sunroof). I bought it and brought it home a few weeks ago (pics to follow this weekend). It runs, but barely. Needs a lot of work inside and out, and on the engine too! There are a lot of undiagnosed errors, mis-wiries, missing parts and quick fixes that need to be looked into, the sooner the better.

Growing up, I knew it was a super cool car, ahead of its time and I always wanted one that has its own identity. A classmate got one when he moved to college in IL, and everytime I used to see his car, I fell deeper in love! I am new to auto repairs but am willing to put in the time and learn from the Resident Maestros and Passionate Owners this forum come to be known for! I know I have a long way to go but I'd like to hang out more and more in here, meet everyone and gradually learn the ins and outs of upkeep, maintenance and restoration :).

I love volunteeting my time and services for projects and activities, so if I can be of any help, I'd love to sign up and assist the forum/forum members with anything!

ps: Thank you @Fierofool

- Thank you everyone and hope to meet you all soon!,
AJ.

Thank you, and welcome aboard as well!!!

Looks like you have a Harley? ;) That's not bad!

ps: did they finish your onboarding/induction program? The males need to shave our chests, start working on a mohawk, get the club tattoo on their forehead, take a blood oath and pledge our firstborns. If you're a female, you just do the Riverdance tapdance routine and you're automatically in. :D :D ;D ;) ;)

Wow! Great to hear!
I'm near the Walmart/Buford Highway/Berkeley Lake.

So Tiny Duluth has TWO fieros now? :) 8) 8) We should enter them in the Fall Festival this weekend, Sir!
