FieroGT stretch Concept (Page 3/240)
Amida FEB 27, 02:40 PM

This is what I had in mind for the coupe from my previous drawing. It's a stock '85GT with some bodyline modifications. In addition the drivetrain/cradle is shifted 3" back and a new curved windshield is added. My design goal is to give it a slightly modified look while maintaining a stock factory appearance.

Personally I'd say the rear looks a little funny now.. maybe if you lengthened the rear bumper a few more inches it would look about right.. and you missed the tail lights :P.

There is a factory prototype of a 4 seater. It was at the 20th Anniverary show. It was also silver. I would have bought one for sure. I dont have the pics anymore, but sure someone here has one.

That would be interesting to see. Hopefully someone can post some pics.

It does look funny. This time I put the stock rear bumper pad back in the photo. Not bad.

Two more photos of my model built in 1989 of '85 GT 4-seater.

No Photoshop involved.

That's cool. It reminds me of a Ferrari 400i, or a stretch limo.

Continuing on the fastback I removed the hot air outlets behind the front wheels, and lowered the back of the roof for a more teardrop shape. Reshaped the rear QTR glass to more resemble the stock Fiero glass. Does this need a rear wing also?

Hmmmm So many possibilities with that stretch.

An aluminum 2.7L dohc engine and transmission out of an Dodge Intrepid would be cool in there, twin turbos. Its a longitudinal engine/trani combo which is also FWD, would fit perfectly. Would also be perfectly centered in the engine bay and wouldn't hurt the weight bias one bit.

Unfortunately you would have the cronic tranny and engine mount problems found in the dodge applications, lol.
As far as a stretched Fiero, I took this pic last summer of a stretched and slammed 88 GT

ugh I cant get it to upload, ill post it later
