These are pics of my new Chop Top steering wheel from Ausfiero. I wanted something that was as unique as the car itself, and was considering a MOMO commando, until Aus offered to do some searching and recommend this AutoTechnica (he also sells MOMO cheap!). Aus was VERY helpful in locating the wheel, as well as getting a very good price. The custom adaptor that Aus has fabricated is a perfect fit, as well as wonderful quality. Aus also offered to have the adaptor chromed a few more $, but once it was finished, the shop charged him twice as much.....and he DIDN'T pass the cost on to me. He stuck to his VERY low quoted price (shipping included) from the very beginning. I highly recommend doing business with him, and certainly would not hesitate to again. If you want all of the details of the cost, Ill leave it up to Jim to let you know.




The wheel came out a bit light in the pics....it is actually much darker, very good match.

Nice. Know of any other steering wheels that are flat on the bottom? I really like that style.

Thanx

*drools* that was the PERFECT touch to your perfect car. I love your car, I must say it's the most amazing Fiero I've ever seen. I'm hoping to get mine chopped within a few years, my goal is to get it done in under 3.

Again, sweet steering wheel, the perfect touch, it made your interior.

That one was $240 Sloth. I actually ripped myself off on that one due to the chrome adaptor blowing out in cost but I can get a variety of wheels in different price ranges. I quoted a price so I stuck to it.

That wheel is a "class act", and goes perfectly with your car. Very impressive!

Good work Aus.

Have a good one.

LT1 - You have a nice car, I love it. But you should consider in change the pedals for a set of aluminum. Also get a set of Sparco Milano seats in Blue. Of course if you can afford it. Will look amaizing with that.

LT1... I was thinking maybe a nice set of white face/blue indiglo gauges... Let me know if you're interested. I'm almost done with my testing and will be installing the first set in my car in the near future. You do have an absolutely beautiful car.

Drexter,

Any suggestions of the pedals?? I liked these at first...but they are not the best quality. I have considered different seats, but they would not allow me to sit in the car. The seats are currently leather, with the bottom shallowed out about 1.5".

MinnGreen,

Blue glow?? Hmmm..got any pics/prices?

87FieroGtx,

I didn't at first, but I like the chrome accents (matching the shift knob)and how unique it is. I had a few hot rodders at the show last weekend where they could get one.

I didn't even see the pedals, I LOVE THEM!! Where did you get them?

My dream car is Your car with a see threw decklid like Skitimes, LS-1 instead of the LT-1, no wing, Euro Interior, the glassed in headlights, Euro Tail lights no badges and painted Viper Yellow.
