Reading between the lines, I'm already seeing some, ahem... potential issues starting to develop.

To prevent things from possibly escalating if/when the strip-down occurs, who will the actual owner of the car be at that time?

Who's setting the prices and who's taking the money?

Who's deciding who gets what if there's a conflict?

Best to clarify this now instead of during the process.

Its not insured but it is insurable, aircared as a matter of fact! - the cat &
exhaust has less than 5000km and it aircared VERY well when I took it
through in Jan.
If anyone wants to drop by to scope it out just PM me, I just want to see it
go where it will do the most good


This is an entire running Fiero and I can't part it out and my place as I live
in a townhouse

Is this car still avaliable?   If it is, I think it will be a major topic for the meeting.

Yep, I haven't had the time or the heart to 'dispose' of it yet. Again if
anyone has questions or wants to see it feel free to pm or email me

 Yes for the record the strip will be done at my place,

 

16908 104th Ave, Surrey B.C. V4N4N2  if you get lost 604-807-2623 or 604-584-7717  I can't speak for what parts will be available, but if you have tools and time and want to have some fun, we plan to start at 8am and work till the car is completely stripped to the bone, nothing will be left on the car when we are done taking things apart.  Any parts leftover that are not claimed on Saturday will be placed back into the caucus and sent to scrap on Sunday or Monday morning.  I do have an air compressor but only one impact gun, so if you have  T- Fitting for Air Lines and a spare line you can bring that would be awesome.

Rob is the Owner

Rob and Damian will be people deciding who gets what.

I will help Rob come up with the Prices.

If there is a conflict, I'll stand up and be the jerk that says who gets screwed and who gets the goods.

However the major factor in who gets what is who shows up with cash in hand.  If you do not show up, you don't choice on anything.

 

I am on the phone with the Doctor now, and he is coming with stack of power tools.

No promises, but if we can figure out a few things, I'll even bring my plasma cutter!  And no - you don't get to play with it.  

I'll bring my recip' saw too.

If you've got a battery operated impact, and some 7/8/10/13mm sockets they make life much nicer.  A T15 Torx bit, and a #2 phillips to fit it is nice too.

I speak from experience when I say...  bring all your own tools wherever possible, and account for them.  Too many times, tool "A" looks just like buddies tool "A", and things get all muddled up.

For the record, there will be no problems.  People known to engage in problems please stay home....:)

To that end, everyone is being PM'ed with their list of goodies as I understand them.  Any small bits left on the hulk in the end will be up for grabs by the group who pitched in.  As Dave mentioned, there will be no parts left over.  The crusher will come and take it all away.  Truth be told, there shouldn't be much left other than some body panels and odds and ends.

So, Rob is the owner, he fronted all the cash.  We've come up with everyone's share that will be pre-agreed on before the weekend.

It should be a great time.  Anyone is welcome to come hang out.  It's a great opportunity to learn how your car is put together.  You'll see things no Fiero owner should ever have to see.  Oh the horror!

The only other thing I'd like to add is that 8:00 AM might be a little bit early because the car is being driven via permit.  Not sure if there will be an Autoplan agent open that early.

I suppose it could be delivered the night before if it can be arranged.  If that's ok with Dave.

Thanks
DG
You dream it up....I'll make it

You can buy a permit a month in advance if you want!  Just tell them what day it's for.

As for the 8am thing - my only thoughts are about pissing off the neighbors (lets face it - it's not a quilting bee!), and having a bunch of 1/2 awake people killing themselves.

You can Pre-Purchase permits for any day you want, and yes the idea of coming over early was mentioned and approved.  It doesn't have to come early but it is fine with me, the main reason to bring it a day early is so that the car will be ice cold when we get to the engine bay and brakes.  We don't need hot engine oil or engine parts burning people while they take things apart.

I can have it there either day - I'm thinking maybe Friday in case any issues
arise. I'd like to hang out and watch/help with the dismantling, maybe
provide the photo record of the event?

Wayne you are more than welcome to come and hang out for the entire day, video, take pics, whatever you like.  If you want you can even use my garage computer to upload stuff as it happens.
