PS How's the job hunt coming along?
Good actually. I went up to Ottawa to look for a job, and I've ended up getting a job in Toronto while I was there.  Which means one paycheque from now I'll be searching for my next Fiero.  Brad |

Congrats Brad! Guess you'll be too good, becoming a Toronto person and all, to hang with us Ottawa/Eastern Ontario folks.  Cheers, Derek |

Heh, naw... I'll be around still. My buddy in Ottawa there just got a new 42" plasma TV to go with his Xbox 360. I'll definitely be around. haha

Engine part of the harness is completed along with the nounting brackets. Getting ready to mount onto the cradle but having a hard time finding a cradle strong enough. Any one know of a good cradle available. Dan
Any luck with finding a cradle? Cheers, Derek |

Gave up the search and got the one brought down professionally welded and reinforced. Was able to salvage lower control arms and the rear cradle bushings now just need a set of new front cradle bushings. Any one know if they are still available or will I have to drive all the way to Toronto to get poly ones. Dan

Good boy. Did you want me to get a K&N filter and mount it the same way as on my car. Plus did some measuring looks a little too tight for mounting the battery under the headlight damn coupe bumpers. So do you want me to mount the battery in with the spare tire area. Plus do you want the same muffler used as I have with the others or is it too loud for you that way. Dan

Typing with 1 hand today...cut the tendon on my finger removing tiles yesterday.  Have to wear a splint to allow the stitches to keep the tendon together..kind of like to be able to use my finger still! Yes to everything. Still waiting for the call back about the bushings..must be on lunch. |

The actual description I believe is engine cradle mount bushings or some thing like that. Now you would think some one so capable as to be able to blow up a nice engine like a duke would have the sense to make sure the fuel tank is empty when he does it. Just removed one very heavy almost full fuel tank. Dan

The car was supposedly "fixed" when the belt was replaced...as such, I got gas 'cause it was empty and I had to drive back to Kingston. Next time I blow up an engine - and NOT this one - I'll consider my gas situation first.  Cheers, Derek PS Joe is sick today..he'll call me tomorrow and get the bushings sent out from his stock. |

I think that is what the Fiero shop in Toronto will be sending. eBay purchases can be somewhat slow in being delivered too. Cheers, Derek |
