Did a little more tweeking while I wait for the roofing company. Changed to a ducktail & modified the quarter glass...if anyone remembers the RX-4 .




starting to look like a gt40 with a hint of fiero. looks good!

BTW: you did a killer job on Whadeduck's interior... very cool.

I think it's the duck tail. Maybe try a wing instead.

I like it, and I dont know why, but it almost reminds me of a Sallen S7 now.

The weather here has changed drastically since starting this project, so I worked double time to get this valance panel face lift done which is now completed. I didn't now how much the old Fiero nosed sagged until I actually started the operation. The straight edge shows the body line is back to where it should be. After priming a finish coat is applied then polished & waxed to prepare for tooling.

An epoxy tooling system is used for making the mould. Epoxy is more expensive & harder to work with but shrinks less & doesn't distort like polyester does. Other than a little paint sticking the mould separated with a little finesse. Here, the first part pulled from the new mould will be mounted to my chassis & used as a demo unit to help finish the shaping of the new nose section.

This looks awesome. More rounded and all-around updated, but it still looks "Fiero-ish". Creative in a very tasteful way.
