Pennock Barchetta
Barchetta PFF
PFF Spyder
Pennock Daytona
PFF DaytonaOr, w/o the PFF tie in: LS1 Barchetta
LS1 Spyder
LS1 Daytona, etc. ... I'm partial to either the LS1 Barchetta or Pennock Barchetta.
Or maybe not use PFF in the name, but put a PFF logo on the car? ------------------

I love this thread and can't wait to see the final product. I will probably get one some day since I had already planned on getting a finale some day. Keep up the good work Archie. ------------------

[/QUOTE] Nope: Way too many $$$ to develope to the point where it will stay on the car under all conditions & if it isn't perfect, way too easy to sue the guy that sold it to you. Hmmmm......why not avoid that and try that different idea? As a suggestion: Why no use a 350Z convertable roof? I know that a new roof would cost some $$$$$$'s but if the angle and width is similar to the size of a roofless Fiero...it should be okay? Or maybe a another convertable with ltd space in the back for a lessor reduce or extention of Fiero frame? Allowing for rear cabin space, the Fiero could then sectioned off between the rear seat and extended out by 12-15"? Just enough for the folding roof to be retracked into the now open space? The angle of the front wind shield could meet where the roof would close? Is this possible? With all of the knowledge in the shop and past skill along w/skilled labor it seems possible. Besides, how many people would like to drive a complete topless (in sert name here) car 3-4 month out of the year? If you Archie can build a convertable w/a retractable roof.....GM just may have too shut you down for sure!
Oh yeah name the car FLS1/spyder. Letters and numbers are much cooler vs. names. But heck what do I know, hehehehe.

Why add a roof to a car that you just cut one off of? Go topless on the sunny days. Keep up the good work Archie.
JMO.
Thanks Gary

From a third persons perspective...anything with "PFF" sounds kinda awkward. The Pinnacle has been suggested. I'd like to change the suggestion to the Finale Pennacle. A more subtle approach.

The Report on the PFF Spyder for today is that there is no report. We had other cars to work on today & I had to order the Poly Foam that we are going to use to form mock-up of some of the parts we need. We have a customer picking up a car this week & 2 more coming in by Tuesday, but We'll put in as much time as we can on the PFF Connection. As you can see in the background of some of the pictures, we are also involved in putting together a 328 replica for a NIFE club member. So we remain very busy. This expanding foam stuff is really cool & fun to work with. When we do the "Foaming" I'm gonna take a bunch of pics, so I can show you it in action. Don't miss this. Archie
