I am making templates of everything so that I can build more of these if necessary.
I am working on the ac ductwork this week.
It will attach to the dash underneath like the original, except it will use hoses on the end vents instead of being solid.
I have vinyl coming in tomorrow or Friday and this weekend I plan on getting the console covered.
So far everything I have made bolts in quite nicely and quickly so there won`t be any fabrication required to install.
The only thing that will have to be removed is the top ears on the instrument cluster and the upper part of the plastic console skeleton
has to be cut out, which usually is no big deal as everyFiero I have had it`s all broken up anyway.
On another note I took my gas tank, out of my 85, down to a radiator shop to have it cleaned.
I will be ordering a new fuel gauge sender/pick-up tube from the Fiero Store in a week or so.
My car needs a new nose,too, so hopefully I will be getting one from Amida soon.

I covered my console today.
The charcoal color is darker it just looks lighter with the flash on.

I`m really just an amateur at fiberglassing but after spending money trying different things I just about now know what to buy.
I bought some fiberglass mat locally a while back and the guy told me it was continuous strand mat, so when I ordered some
from Fiberglast, what I got was a lot thicker and it took quite a while to wet it out. So then, I called the local place and I told
the guy when I bought the mat I was told it was continuous mat. I then asked if they had chopped mat and he said that`s what
I got. He then said it was continuous / chopped mat, which are two different products, thus I won`t go back there.[This message has been edited by TXGOOD (edited 04-04-2010).]
