Testing PIP with my new work pc. Seems to work with Windows 10...
Here's a great pic of Wayne's custom 288.

Update:
Seats...Awefully tall. Don't know if I want to chop them up to get them in...
I'm 6' tall and I'm hitting my head on the outer skin of the roof. I think they need to drop 2 to 3". Might be real difficult.
Gurney bump?
Cut holes in the rear fascia so I can run the car again.
Gives a real good idea on the height of the exhaust.
And, headlights part 4...(or 5?)... Taking a chapter from Carlo, I'm going to carve up the old hood to bond a box together to form the headlight cover and sides.
Here's the top.
The I scrapped the boxes I bent and created a new faceplate. Here it's mounted to a fake cover used to place it properly in the opening.
Then, using some brackets, and some pieces from the old box, I welded up a new box.
Then with it in place, I welded up the new hinge pieces.
New light box. Much lighter than previous and more flexibility for adjustments. And, now includes the light mounts.
Should be easier to reproduce, too.
That's it.

Looking good Bob!
Great job on the headlights. Looking forward to see the finalization of the lifting mechanisms. 
Boy, I don't know on the seats...those are great looking seats, and I'd hate to see you have to cut them down, but it does look like they could be a might high-backed for the Fiero interior.
Will be watching to see what you come up with.
Glad to see somebody is able to peck at their project from time to time!
HAGO!

The link isn't working for me Bob!
The light buckets look great though, great job Bob the 90 mm projectors will be a great choice.
