Ya..........there's a bunch at the local do-it-yourself bone yard too. Always amazed at how many they have. Hmmmmm?

The trick to getting a project car in the magazine is not to convince "GRM" (aka, Tim) that a certain car would be good. You need to convince some poor unsuspecting writer. Without individual enthusiasm, the car will be an orphan and will quietly disappear from the pages of the mag. I can name at least one project car that never really had a "champion" in the ranks, so there was never the enthusiasm that is required to keep a project car vital and alive in the difficult times.

Soooo any Fiero Freaks on GRM staff???? Any one we can turn to the dark side???? I even have a potential project car that I would let go cheap.

Thanks Jon

I agree, I want to see a Fiero project. Clear up the myths that the car completely pales in comparison to the vaunted MR2. Can a pre '88 rear end be convinced to handle well? Cover the pros/cons of the various engine swap options. Do a swapped car shootout that pits an LS1 against a caddy 4.9 against a N* against an L67 against a turbo Quad4...

So GRM, you just need to build an example of EACH of those cars, then mail them off to readers when you're done! I call dibs!

I wish i still had my october issue but i left it in the hospital after i bounced my surfboard off my face.

note: having your lower lip punctured by your teeth isnt nearly as painful as you would suspect.
