More cars from the 35th Anniversary car show...

This is Block Top Racing's entry.






I like the wheels on this car...

VADER: I believe the police chief voted this car most likely to get pulled over.  Or maybe it was the fire dept's "most likely to catch on fire".

When BTR rebuilt the engine in this Fiero, there was a discussion about going to a 3800SC, but this intake was special to both the owner and the company, so they went with the 60-degree V6.

It looks as if the camera on the ladder is pointing directly at your Fiero, TopNotch!

Continuing the story...
Saturday evening, after the car show, we were treated to speakers. Both the lighting and sound were bad (and there was some kind of band next door), but I managed to catch a bit of John Callies (father of the SD4 engine).
(I should have brought a tripod.)

There was a wedding reception on the other side of the divider.

I didn't take a picture of this, but someone had screwed through their quarter windows into the body of their Fiero. Admittedly, these were aftermarket quarter windows with small scoops built into them, but this was an otherwise nice Fiero, with a custom paint job.

These SD4 valve covers appear to be different.



One has a full dome; the other does not.

That supercharged SD4 does not yet run.  It starts, on occasion.

The engine in that picture is a supercharged 87 duke, and the owner ran it for me.

Did he drive it?

Having done a swap, there is a huge difference between the two.

He didn't drive it, but he opened the throttle a couple of times. It responded normally.

Anyone else get their special edition Fiero Focus?

Jennifer Goss makes a lot of appearances.

Ray told me that the edition we receive is only for the club officers.  It isn't distributed to anyone except to those who are paid subscribers.

Well, I get my own copy.  It arrived today.  Some nice pics.  I do remember seeing the drone.
