My Odds and Ends Post

The vast majority of things I look at now is made in China. I don't buy them, unless I HAVE to have the item & can't find it made ANYWHERE else.
Not only that, but China now OWNS us! They're the ones buying all this debt so obama can pay off the fat cats on wall street & in Washington.

Pardon my driving; I'm reloading.

Rick and Derek are coming down to the shop tomorrow to work on Rick's 85 GT. He's got to replace the crank it's bad after less than 500 miles. Derek is driving his Formula with the 3800SC. I also met a man today that said he could make the V8 adapter plates cheaper than Archie. I'm going to have him make me one and I'll let everybody know how it turns out.

The tranny's bad on the truck and it has 293,000 miles on it. Julio gave it to me so yes I'm thinking about crushing it. I can't find a trans. anywhere at a decent price.

Rob, I guess you don't remember, but my brother has about 70 old Mopars. I'll bet we have a trans. What size engine & type trans is it?
Or: I may just buy the truck from you (or swap out some parts - want the Indy Spaceframe?)   What year is the truck? Is it rusty?

It's a 93 Dodge 318 2wd, no rust and has 293,000+ miles on it. And it's Tennessee orange with a red door. It actually runs real good but after it gets warm the trans quits pulling. Its an old state truck.

I might trade you the Mustang for it...

Don't be late - in the wrong direction...

[RobsFieros]

refresh my memory about the mustang

[Tha Driver]

The White car: '92 2300 dual-plug 4 cyl., automatic. Runs & drives. Needs a hood, windshield, headlight, & some TLC. Some of the interior pieces are off, but they're all there. I've been asking $800 for it.
There was a fiberglass cowl hood on Craig's List for $200 not long ago.

Julio said if you bring the car up and haul the truck back, he'll trade.

[Tha Driver]

I was thinking you'd do the hauling. ;-)
I've been asking $800 for the Mustang.
I don't have any way to haul anything anymore. My pickup DIED (I think the timing jumped), & I have no intentions (or time or money) to fix it. I also no longer have a usable trailer.
Thanks anyway,

I think I just bought an 86 t-top Fiero. I should know tomorrow for sure.

[RobsFieros]

I still haven't heard back on the t-top Fiero.

[RobsFieros]

Does your Fiero stack up to the rest?



Or is it hard to pick out of a crowd of Fiero's?



Maybe you need an engine swap?



Or maybe just spruce up the interior?



With a little work you could have a trophy car....

We had planned to come to the meeting today but got a late start and by the time we got to Ellijay it was 2:30, so we went riding around instead. We encountered 3 GHP's on Fort Mountain telling me to slow down in the middle of a hard curve. Rick and Derek got sideways on a couple of the curves later in the day. I think it was on hwy. 68 and on hwy. 64 Derek had a Mustang that wanted to race so he smoked him two times before the Mustang turned tail and went the other way. All together we had a great time but we did miss getting to see everybody.

I just finished building another 88 2.8.
