Thank you so very much for everyone that I asked questions! I'm sorry if I didn't answer yours. Also, I have learned two very important things while making this video: 1) I watch more KZbin than I thought. I have even more channels that I recommend checking out in the description. 2) I need to invest in a lav mic because holy crap this audio is straight garbage. I'm sincerely sorry about all of the wind, flies, cars, and everything else. Oh, hey if you want to vote for the Fiero for the International Quarantine Car Show, I have it linked in the description as well! Voting ends tomorrow (May 2nd)

I have a 72 Chevelle that I've been working on. My dad bought it in 76 and owned it into the mid nineties. I remember sitting on his lap and driving it, getting toys stuck in random holes and it smashing my finger. When he abruptly sold it I remember hating it. Well after 10 or so years it ended up back in my hands. Sometimes it's the memories that drive us forward and make us what to complete something. Greetings from the Katy area.

I remember getting this series recommended to me by KZbin some time ago and being a bit puzzled at first, KZbin rarely offers me something genuinely new and interesting, nor so well crafted. I've had no questions throughout because every step has been beautifully explained and I've learned a lot about the Fiero I didn't know. Your videos are never boring, they never feel too long, and the pacing throughout is pretty much flawless. So thank you for all your hard work so far, and I look forward to enjoying what you create in the future, it's sure to be worth the wait.

Someone gave me a car magazine at some point in my teens. I LOVED car magazines at that time. In it was a review of the Fiero GT. They seemed to mostly like it, but were pretty underwhelmed by its handling. I've had a soft spot for Fieros since then. I always found them kind of cool, without being unobtainable like the Ferrari Daytona Spyder or the Countach Quattrovalvole. Not even half unobtainable like the Lotus Esprit S1 or the Ferrari 328. Which means following your restoration has been a pleasure!

I am a history professor, and I am ruthless with my students in stamping out passive voice. It has no place in historical writing, mostly because it introduces ambiguity into the narrative. You are not writing serious history, and it is perfectly obvious who performed the action because we are watching you do it. If we were to read the transcript of your videos without the video, the passive voice would be extremely annoying, but since this is KZbin, the video is integral. The rules of academic writing do not apply neatly to this genre. Ronnie, don't change anything. A+.

I am an engineer. In scientific R&D reports, no matter if internal or in professional journals, "passive voice" is the only way to go. Obviously habits are different in different sciences. As Ronnie is an engineer rather than a historian, he intuitively did right. But who knows, some time in future he might restore a hittite chariot and then it´s again your turn to comment. : ))

This aversion to the passive voice in the English-speaking world (foremost America) is a relatively new trend, which may originate from the increasing difficulty the average reader has to understand even relatively simple texts that slightly depart from the spoken language. I've read extremely well-written history books, which made extensive use of the passive voice (L. Mamford, Hobsbawm come to mind alonside many many others). There're many reasons to omit the subject. It is not a questionable style decision or a gratuitous way of obscuring the utterance. The passive voice exists at least in all Indoeuropean languages, since it serves a purpose. Sometimes who performs the action is obvious or irrelevant or unknown or collective, which often happens in academic history writing. I don't think you're giving your students a good piece of advice. Mr. Finger, as the great writer he is and as you has acknowledged, makes very appropiate use of the passive voice.

Love the Fiero series. I had the turbine wheels on my Fiero when I bought it new in April of 1985. I burnt the tires down to the steel belts. When I went to a business associate who owns a auto junk yard to get some new tires (he also sold tires), he traded me a set of the common 5 spoke Pontiac wheels (14" but with a dish to them) for the 13" turbine wheels. I have had 2 sets of custom wheels in the past and now run 18" rims. So I went from 175/85/13 to 185/70/14 to 225/40/18. I wish I still had the 13" turbines just because they were so cool. Yes I still have the Fiero. Original owner with 75K miles (the car not me).

Your Dad having referenced the Fiero being a car of "firsts" I wanted to point out that interior vinyl such as on the door panels are self-healing. Or they were anyway, as I don't know if that version of vinyl would still be working after 35 or so years now. I bought my second Fiero in '94 and for some reason I had to get inside the driver's door. Removing the door panel I had an awful time detaching the side mirror control and gouged the area around it. It looked bad and worse amateurish, but a couple of days later when I returned the panel looked fine. Self-healing vinyl, wonderful development! As I recall, the Turbine Wheels only came on the SC model, and the SC is the most rare car. Your intention of returning the Fiero to original is great. That will be a wonderful historic reference and I hope those that come after you will do the same. I want to advise that the tires are best in the correct size for the wheel. If your Fiero came with the turbine wheels the door sticker should be correct for what size this is. I'm speaking from past ownership when I say the balance of the car and holding ability with the original tire size with be excellent, and little to no improvement would be had installing wider tires. You just about can't get the original size tires to break loose in the sharpest curve at high speed. More important than any intention of wider tires is spending money on the very best tires in the correct size. Both my Fiero's had stock tires and would hold in sharp curves at speeds I'd never thought possible. And the overall balance for the weight proved itself one day on a roadway covered in freshly fallen sleet and light rain. About fifteen other cars after a curve ahead me landed all catawampus from the gutter to the center median. There was no way I could even put the slightest touch on the brakes. I was well experienced in driving on ice, snow, slush you name it, but I'd never experienced the mix of water on top of ice or any icy road for such a long length. Because of balance along with very gentle inputs I was able to thread my way through all these cars just stopped wherever the laws of physics had allowed for. Maybe a little help from the Blessed Mother too, and my Fiero missed every car in the ever changing pathway ahead of me.

I used to sell tires for a living back in the late 80s. I remember re-tiring a few Fieros. Odd tire size, as I remember. But either black or whitewalls don't look quite right. Probably raised white letters, with the right color paint job.

This was great, thank you Ronnie (or Ronny?)! I found your channel through the first episode of the Fiero series and have been here since, and my personal favorite reason for this being an awesome series and channel is that you literally tell me a story as the video goes on, and that keeps me informed, entertained (love the puns) and hooked!

Im currently finishing up my Lotus Esprit Series 2 and am so glad to see someone give soup motoring a shout out. Ive been following him since the start since we are doing the same car basically, and damn his channel was so small, and has grown a little. The dudes editing is insane, and he has such a deep passion as do you for what he is restoring. Love that you gave him a huge shout out, props to both of you man! id do videos on my car but i cant edit, and my times split between multiple car projects lolol
