Over my Dead Body. Johnny boy and Clynt are the dream team when it comes to modding cars outside of the norm. I may throw a chain around them and drag them to Oregon with me if I move. I'll tie them up in the basement in ankle chains and give them unlimited food, shelter and a long supply of Fiero's to work on. LOL. John in case you are not aware both you and Clynt are very appreciated here in BC. I'd gather to say that at least half of the modified cars in the club you two had a hand in, either with knowledge explaining how to do it, or by coming right to their house and teaching them how to do it. So in case I have not said it for a while "Thank You" I get compliments on my car every time I drive it. P.S. could you PM me Clynt's current email addy. I need to send him a few pics.

First post. I had a great 86 Fastback in college and left it at my parents house for a 500 hp Corvette many years ago. In the past few weeks, I got interested in rat rods and was looking into getting a 1931 Plymouth. On a whim, I remembered the old Fiero I still have rotting away and thought I'd see if there were still any Fiero forums around. Your build has probably single-handedly rescued my old Fiero. I think I'm going to go tow it back to my house and start reviving it.
I have fond memories of all those old plans of putting a V8 in it and adding something like a Diablo body kit. Those are certainly being replaced with ideas now of keeping Fiero core lines and flaring, chopping and accentuating.(along with adding the V8). Thank you and others for the inspiration.

Where do you get this type of foam?
Also, for the process, I want to make sure I understand the steps:
- You'll lay fiberglass over this to form the mold
- Then coat the inside of the fiberglass with something to prevent sticking
- Then lay fiberglass inside this to form the actual part, adding brackets or mounting tabs as needed(or do you put these on after removing from the mold?)
Maybe I'll just sit back and watch the process. This is very exciting.

Nice. So will you be taking the foam out and then mounting the fiberglass, or are you bonding it to the panels as you go and leaving the foam in place?
I have no fiberglass experience, so this is fascinating to me. Lots of possibilities...
