If the screen folds right you can lay it across the spare tire.

How the C8 will affect Fieros should probably have its own topic.

The C8 will be great, but 36 years late....

TopNotch, did that cover the parts for the T-top?

I'm not sure what you meant by "overhead console". Mine are not CJB, and I have no storage bags or trunk straps. I store mine behind the seats when not on top (latch side down).
Refer to this document for t-top parts.
Edit: I think you meant the overhand light switch assembly. The original is cut, and a cover placed over it as part of t-top installation. The next to last page of the linked document is a template for cutting the light switch assembly.

Thanks.  Hopefully all the other parts were correct.

Of course, I've heard of Dolly Parton, but not of Crystal Gayle.  After reading the article, I went through and listened to their music.  Not really my style, although I had heard one of Dolly's songs.

One of my clients looks just like Dolly, now, only my client uses her natural hair.  Since they're only about 10 years different in age, maybe my client was going for the Dolly look...or not.  On the other hand, everyone looks the same, to me.

I'm a fan of Crystal Gayle (aka Brenda Gail Webb, aka Loretta Lynn's baby sister).

Cool.  Both the autograph and being a fan.  I guess the apprdctation article was extra special for you.

Crystal and Dolly seem to have kept true to themselves, unlike the current batch of female musicians.

I don't know which car in the article you would ascribe to Crystal, and which to Dolly. But I do know that Dolly is a LOT richer than Crystal. She owns Dollywood, she has been in some major motion pictures, and has other business interests. Apart from a short run on one of the daytime soap operas, I don't know of any acting Crystal has done, and apart from a crystal store in Nashville (now closed), I don't know of any business interests.

Dunno.  I hadn't thought of who would be which car.  Wealth doesn't mean a lot to me.

I have been taking pictures of 80's-era vehicles, on the chance that they may appear in an article.  The cars rarely appear when I'm specifically looking for them.

The GFC newsletters are now indexed by google.  BUT, you have to use exact search terms.  So, not much help for people searching.  Unless such a person is actually pointed to a given newsletter, it's doubtful that they'll find it.

It would be very nice to have a short article at the beginning and ending of each year.  The beginning article would outline a plan for the year, and the ending article would be a wrap-up article for that year.
