Fiero owners know, that if you get the chance to get a Fiero save it. As sooner or later you are going to need it. SO many of us have storage area for parts. I personally part out about 1 car a year to keep my inventory of spares on hand. With 6 Fieros at our house 4 of them being Daily drivers of people living here I am always needing parts. Last summer Lisa and I went out to Chilliwack and bought a lot of parts. Then an old member that was moving to Quebec called me and asked if I wanted some more parts. Only deal was I had to take it all, as he did not have to sort it. My garage was almost full from taking apart the 85SE so with the Wrecking yard parts and this other guy, it was time to look into a storage locker. Lisa found a cheap storage place that was converted from a small warehouse/barn. After 4 large pickup loads of parts and 3 loads of parts in my trailer, I now have room for even MORE STUFF.

Yep and I just keep adding more each day. I am heading over to Phils at about 2pm with the trailer to pick up the fastback clip, both seats, a few odds and ends, and if the GT rear bumper is still there I will either grab the entire thing, or just the panels for you. Then I still have to get over to Crakers and pick up another trailer load of parts from him. I try to keep stock on body panels that match either Lisa's red or my black Fieros. The silver ones are the next best as Silver is the easiest to paint over. I also have to get the door panels for Phil.

You've really gotta take one of my sets of shelves too!
I'm 'decommissioning' one of the heavy steel ones (the one that's like 3ft deep and 6ft long) across from the the lathe. It's all bolted together, so you should be able to trailer it. That'd get HUGE amounts of the smaller stuff up off the ground. It's big enough though, that you could put like seats and fenders on the top shelf. |

Ya we are kinda short on shelves at the storage locker. So if you are donating to the cause, that would be awesome. Let me know when the shelf is ready and I'll come get it.
