this wasn't import scene inspired, it was taken from a import "Ferrari" but i think that was mentioned

im not sure but shouldn't proper credit for that particular idea on your particular car be given to ferrari... if i remeber correctly it was inspired by a ferrari wasn ' it?

Interesting. In all the years I had this mod and thousands and thousands of views of this mod on my Fiero suddenly someone says that someone somewhere had this before. Pics?

Unbelievable car ! You are a very talented and skilled craftsman. I am a new guy to the forum and seeing this thread has been an incredible inspiration. My Fiero is in need of some work at the moment and since I am going to machinist's school for the Army for 13 weeks, it will be at least September before it's back on the road. Hopefully I see you at Carlisle if I make it, but if I don't maybe I will spend some time cruising around Akron hoping to catch a glimpse ! Great car, man, and keep up the good work!

The problem that arises sometimes Ski is like in my case. I was new to the 3800 SC swaps but found allot of the ideas I used were your original ideas. I didn't find this out until I got into a longer conversation near completion and was told this. Loyde made sure I knew things were your Idea after I talked with him a bit. So sometimes it is a case of things being passed on off of the forum and in a garage.
I will know personally thank you for your ideas and effort you worked with to make my swap allot easier. Keep up the good work. Rick B
