got one also but you'd have to look in the archives to see it 'cause i can't do pics now.

by the by, just punctured a tire so i have a set of formula/88gt wheels on it today. not too bad a look but i think it'll just be temporary.

Can I request fastback cnvrt owners please post pics of your (former) B-pillar area. Especially the area where the canvas meets the fiberglass. My top was on a notchback and it's goin on a fastback, so I'd like to see how the 'glassing was done in that area and the canvas shape there.
Thanks,
Scott

Here's a pic of mine, as promised...

Finally scanned in a bunch of pics and burned them to CD at work, but my home computer doesn't have enough resources to handle resizing them and making them presentable, so I'll have to post more in a bit.

The Silver convertible is one of the convertibles sold by Massilion Pontiac, from Canton Ohio.

What I have yet to see is some of the V6s that were made.... hmmm

The company that did the conversion was out of FL. Conversion Concepts or something like that.

Not to pick nits but the silver convertible (my car) was originally sold by a dealer in Ft Lauderdale Florida. It was converted by Conversion Concepts but they are long since out of business. If you need any close up pictures of any of the conversion stuff let me know and I will try to provide them. I removed the folding top about a year ago since I almost never used it and it reduced the leg room in the car by a bit ( I am over 6'1" tall). It is currently in the process of getting a new interior from PISA one piece at a time (kids soak up most of my Fiero budget right now.) When finished it will have a heads up display from a 94 Bonneville along with the radio from that car. Haven't decided on a color scheme yet but am leaning to red and black.

I just got an 84 Convertible - I call it a rescue project - It has sat up for many years as is evident inthe pics at the link below:

1984 Fiero Convertible Rescue Pics!

Needs lots of work! The pics are to show the "before" condition. I just moved it into a portable garage to get her out of the weather. Hope to start on it this winter.
