My windows drag on the front channel as well but haven’t modified anything like you have. I tried without the front plastic piece ( I don’t know what to call it) in the track and it is much faster. I tried it only after buying new windows and the drivers side chattered without ever running it up and down or moving it in the slightest. When I put the old window back in the without the plastic piece it is fast now. I assume the felt in the track is worn out.
The turd is starting to get less runny, nice work.

I did see that, Ill make those eventually. I made one and attached it to the door so it swung with the door opening. Otherwise the door would hit it when opened. Ill work on the grills after im done w fiberglass which is taking waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to long. Been on these damn windows for 5 months! Had a yuuuge 3 month job that took all my time and m a new dad so theres that. Itll get there little by little.
I need new latches for the nose and the rear lid, small amber lights for the nose sides, the rear red lights on the lower bumper, and some kinda door latch that resembles the real thing. Havent had any luck w internet searches, anybody know of or see something that may work Id super appreciate it!
Todd at fiero farm sent me a gas filler assy I installed on the pass side, u can see it in the pics above. Looks sweet. I have no idea how it was bolted to the fiero, the original one on the ds is glued down.
Thanks for watchin

Lornesgt sorry I didnt see your post, do you have a thread w pictures of your windows? Id love to see how theyre set up, might give me some idears.
Ferrobi I love the aircraft fuel door but they were crazy pricey when I looked them up. Shemdoggs a cheap ass lol. I got a filler door and door handle for $40 from fiero farm. Todd shipped the parts out quick too! Thanks dude!
We are gettin lotsa rain here, too wet to work on the car. Mebbe this weekend.

Shemdogg.... your NUTS !!! I always thought this and the GT 40 was the best Fiero kit cars. Looking at the pics I am surprised your wife has not thrown you out..mine almost did !!!. There is something special about Fiero guys who like to modify the stock Fiero's . Can't wait to see you finish this F-40. Your a real hoot...enjoy your posts.

Didn't I buy one of those from you back in the day? I know that I bought one from someone on here. That entire cap assembly was awesome.
