Hagerty Magazine Feature - car needed

Hi all,

I'm working on an article for Hagerty Classic Car Insurance's quarterly magazine, and looking for a factory-spec Fiero to feature. I know there were a couple at the auto show this year. The story is on mid-engined collector-cars for the everyman: 1st gen MR2, Fiat X/19, Fiero. We'll take a jaunt up the Duffy Lake road and get some glamour shots.

Anyone interested? Please shoot me a message, or leave me your email so I can contact you that way. I'm hoping to get things sewn up in relatively short order, as I think we're still due a little good weather.

best,
-Brendan

Hi. I have 3 to choose from . A yellow 88GT that was at the Vancouver International Auto Show, an 87 Burgundy GT which is a real looker, and a Black 87GT. All in excellent condition. The yellow GT was sponsored by Hagerty in the show at the PNE Auto Show a few years ago as well. 😀

Can you send me an email? brendanmcaleer@gmail.com
That way, i can co-ordinate everyone's schedules over the next couple of weeks so we can get the jump on this before the weather turns.

Appears I'm still looking - to clarify, the owner needs to be comfortable with me driving the car for a short stint.

By the way, apropos of nothing in particular, this reminds me that my first Revell model I ever built was a Fiero.

Sure, should have mentioned up front, and I get that not everybody wants some writer driving their car. I just have to get a bit of time behind the wheel to talk authoritatively about the way each car drives. And, of course, we'd be respectful of any car.

Is there also a facebook page or somewhere else I should be looking? Can anyone suggest a club member with a relatively stock car that would work? It doesn't have to be a showcar, more a runner - i'd use yours in a heartbeat, Beken, but then I'd have to swap the MR2 because it's white, and the mandate is all three cars have to be different colours. As pointed out, the weather could be a challenge the later this takes to set up. I'd prefer to feature local cars, as I like to get the BC clubs some spotlight when I can: Hagerty's initial plan was to set something up out of Portland.

Re: need to drive.

Just so we're clear, it's not a comparo - no winner is crowned. More a celebration of what all three cars represent. But I do need to drive to be able to accurately describe what it's like to the readership. FWIW, I've driven everything from a Model T to a Fiat Jolly to a Toyota 2000GT to a Honda N600. I grew up around classic cars and respect them and take great care whenever someone hands over the left seat, however briefly. Hopefully we can find a fit!
