Does Kermit still roll around on its wheels?

Yes. Actually I've got to figure out how to get the wheels off. It has special lug nuts and very little room to get any kind of socket on them. I have a thin wall socket somewhere but can't find it. This afternoons project is find the socket!

I had a terrible thought on this.  For fun, we could have a push race (after the COVID thing ends).  We could see who could push it furthest.  Those who did not push would have to encourage those who did.  Maybe get some high schoolers to do the pushing.  $3 per person, per attempt.  Maybe promotional value.

My son helped me pull the rear clip off yesterday. I'll pull the door skins, cabin wiring harness, wheels and the suspension and call it scrap.

Still holding onto the wheels? I think they are perfect for mine as she gets finished up. Happy to pay and even hand you off my current wheels if you need ones to go over the big brakes.

Out of curiosity, what was wrong with the steering column?

Yes it had an airbag in it so definitely not Fiero.

They might be Held/Ryane.
I remember Dean talking about how he might "acquire" that company, and become the distributor for those pieces.  ::) I believe he used their pieces on several cars.
(Someone who knows how to access archived web pages might be able to access older Held/Ryane pages, and compare the pics to the ones that you posted.)
