We are having a bit of a debate at the house... If I come alone I can be there first thing in the AM when you guys get rolling.  But Patty has an eye appointment at 9 and has to get dilated & she does not have a ride home... She normally can't see to drive after.  So if I take her to the appt & bring her home then she can come and help out too...

She is convinced herself however, that she will be just be in the way and does not have the technical ability to help.  I say there has to be something she can help with (she has more ability then she lets on)...

So I will be missing for a few hours in the AM, but I will bring a second set of hands...Whatcha think?

See you tomorrow, Patty.

I might not be able to make it at all, and I was signed up as Toter, Carrier, Finder, Putter-Awayer, Hand-me-that-curved-blue-thinger Person, so Patty could fill in with that, and most likely much more!

I am still going to try to make it in the afternoon...

so far so good.  we stayed till about 9pm.  got to meet some awesome folks who amazed me with their abilities in putting this car together.  today i spent the day helping polish  taillights.  As of right now they look like new lens.

and I'm posting from my newly upgraded hp touchpad... It's now using android.  It's over clocked and its running fast now that JohnWPB clued me in to the new OS!

can't wait to see everyones pics from the build!

Let me know if you can't see the album and I will move the pics to another site.  This was just quick to do...

Why we had to sand... polish could not touch the deep scratches:

As someone mentioned on PFF, now we know whom to send our tail-lights to, if they start looking dull

People, we need a Generation 1 headlight motor limiter switch so the headlight motors can be reinstalled.  During the rebuild, we found that the motor brushes had become detached from the limiter switch.  Dean donated 2 from Kermit but one of those was lost a brush, too.  We ended up with 5 limiter switches with a missing motor brush. 

If any of you have a yard close to you that has a Fiero, would you please get the motors, remove the limiter switch and let's get it over to Whodeanie's?  If you don't want to donate it to the Joel Project, let me know and I'll buy the motor from you, but we need to get this car completed. 

[Donster]

I've got 3 motors (2 right, 1 left) right now and you are welcome to have them

\D

[Fierofool]

Thanks, Don.  The only thing we need is the limiter switch with a good set of brushes on it.

All or nothing!

I won't have the time to disassemble them, hence my offer of complete motors

\D

[Fierofool]

I'll come over to pick it up and get it to Dean.  They aren't actively working on the car right now, so 8/here's not a real urgency.  If I don't get there, could you bring them to the meeting, Saturday?\=]\
