Finally getting around to painting the 85Gt.
(Archive: TD&Q - by Dodgerunner, started: 08-10-2009, archived: 2011-05-02 10:43:59 CEST)
Well got up the will to start sanding. I'm changing the color to GM Bright White mono with the usual black trim so stripped the car of panels. Also thought I would have to worry less about runs painting the panel off the car. Just need to finish sanding the roof and rear fenders. Then give...

painting - take body panels off, or leave on ?
(Archive: TD&Q - by D B Cooper, started: 07-17-2005, archived: 2006-02-06 11:45:44 CET)
I'm a noob here although I've owned various fieros over the last 13 years. Let me just say it's really cool that there are lots of Fieroheads out there. Anyway, I'm getting ready to paint my '86 GT a metallic pearl gold just a touch darker than the original color. What do you guys think of...

sanding a Fiero
(Archive: TD&Q - by gjohnson, started: 06-13-2008, archived: 2009-09-07 11:04:24 CEST)
A newbie to body work. What would be a good start as far as prepping a Fiero for paint? I kinda understand sanding using progressively finer grits but how much of each should I start with?

Repairing Clear Coat by Spotting?
(Archive: TD&Q - by Mike Murphy, started: 05-27-2007, archived: 2009-02-19 10:45:29 CET)
I just finished repainting the rear clip and before the clear hardened I scuffed a small place on the left rear corner just above the belt-line. I don't think it will wet sand and buff so a second coat of clear is in order. My question is how do I blend the panel that goes up to the roof? Surely...

Paint
(Archive: TD&Q - by raysr11, started: 01-20-2010, archived: 2011-05-02 10:43:12 CEST)
I see there are some pro-painters on this board. Yesterday I responded to a post about how good my paint job was and that I paid $2750 for it. This was supposed to this guy's "used car quality" paint job. He had some cars he was selling and I took a look at them and they looked real good. Paint...

(Archive: TD&Q - by Hank is Here, started: 01-14-2002, archived: 2002-05-11 09:54:22 CEST)
Okay I have searched archives and want to make sure I am correct in all of this information. I have a black 88 GT that I plan to repaint, at this time I am not sure of the color but that should not matter. Right now I have some time to kill before I start my job. I want to prep the car for a...

Engine Removed from my 87GT today, prepping to install my 4.9 V8 5spd. Lots of Pics.
(Archive: TD&Q - by Capt Fiero, started: 02-15-2009, archived: 2013-03-14 10:10:00 CET)
Ok so today was the day to pull the old engine out of the 87 and start prepping it for the V8. I got one hell of a surprise, I went to remove the wheels and there are wheel locks on, with NO KEY. I called the previous owner and he informed me the key was stolen. So I had to do it the...
