Well ladies and getns not even 2 years into the hobby and #3 found its way into my driveway. Picked it up for $1200 it gave me its welcome by overheating on its way home (simple problem i beleave) but this car is a beauty and a bit diffrent See if you can put your finger on what is diffrent about it

Its an 86 4speed with a new engine and transmission interior is more or less shot so no pics till I replace it. it is wired up for power windows and mirrors but the doors have been replaced with manual ones.

Ladies and gents Project Green Lantern

Not too shabby. What's the plans for it? Seems to be pretty well sorted in regards to the exterior.

Looks great! Are the tail lights in as good of shape as they appear in the images?

I'm not too sure about the tan interior with the green though. Those quarter panels create quite a wicked blind spot too. Nothing a little adjustment of the sideview mirrors can't fix though..

It looks like a 14 foot fiberglass pickle!

Just kidding, but I had to poke you a bit.
I like it. Very nice, indeed!

Looks like a rather spendy paint job.

I like the color! Grats. Only thing I don't care for is the beechwood interior with that color, but it's not like a tan interior with green paint is uncommon, just not my taste.

Thanks you guys. Yes the interior has to go it is in very bad shape it was out of an 84 or 85 fiero as it does have speekers in the head rests and none in the pillers. Good thing i still have most of the grey interior our of my 87 and my other 86 so I will be replacing it with that. I think this was a pretty good find. Lot of miles on the body but it has a new engine and trans with only 25K on them.

Gotta love the roof seam delete. I did the same thing on my car. Also, the aluminum roof trim has been deleted.

Bah! Change the color.

That's the color I'm looking for, although mine will be Lotus inspired.

Very nice Rick!!!

Now you must find the right set of wheels for it. A set of wheels can make or break this car.

I love the color but not the stripe, you do not see very many green Fieros.

Are you going to keep it green? Because you know it is not easy being green.

Kid.....

I love it! The white stripe sets it off and I like how it oes under the wing and around the wing. With the right wheels and a different interior, it will be a great car. Congrats.
