About a Pepsi can high...

Yes, they are coil overs.

Wow, that thing is gorgeous, can't wait to see it finished.

I don't think those wingstands are all that accurate though...

If you look at it from the front, the Pepsi Logo is in just the right place. Archie just took the pic from the wrong direction!

Yeah...what's up with that wing, anyway?

as much as i like that car and the orginal GT40.. that is one beast that i don't think I'd put a wing on. ( and i'm a wingnut ) I don't think that there were ever any wings on the orginal GT40's.. but I don't know it may look good.. just my $.02

there were never any wings on the GT40 MK 1's, 2's or,3's

3.4 DOHC Turbo swap in progress

The car is NOT going to have a wing. I balanced the piece on the pop cans as a joke, and not a serious thought on adding a wing.

Don't worry! NO WING!

Archie, I think you are going to have forum members selling their blood to buy one of these .... um ..by the way ... can I interest you in a quart of O - ......

Middle set.

last set of wheels

-Coop

Last ones.

------------------

86 GT -- All Options except Performance Sound

The last set is too modern.....the middle set match the era of the car and look more like racing wheels.....

I like the first set. But, lower the car.

ditto!!

Looks GREAT Arch...

------------------

AKA. "SmoothGT"....
Custom Built SHAVED~WIDEBODY~GT!!

That is looking HOT Archie, I like the last set of rims the best on there, a simple 5 spoke design. The 2nd ones are too cheap lookin. 1st ones looks good, but are more of a "tuner" style rim.

Looking foward to more pics!

------------------
'87GT Fully modded, 3" Drop on 17's, 3800 turbo on the way....
'92 LeBaron soft top, The Players car. :)

Door number three - it's an aggresive car design and the thrid wheel is the only wheel that's aggressive. Those wheels on your car also brought up mental images and thoughts of the new GT. It says, "I'm not trying to fool anyone into thinking I am an original GT40 or the new GT. I am something similar, something very special, and I'm a badddd mutha..."

Oh boy, if I'm like this at the beginning of the day imagine where I'll end up!

perk - todd's hot rods
Shotgun - the ultimate toy toter
Blade - the street-legal Fiero-based race car
Rock-it - the Fiero that will soon be for sale

1st set

Archie none of those wheels match the tradition of the car I would prefer to see the Cragar Classic for a time when HP was the thing www.cragar.com/wheels_ccw.html . Series 61

Definitely the third set. Car looks fantastic, hope I get a chance to see it in person someday. You bringing it to the northwest anytime soon? j/k

Middle set. Looks Great!!

oh thank you for the vote of no wing... i'm also in favor of the last set of wheels.

[This message has been edited by Kameo Kid (edited 01-29-2004).]

Well, I checked the poll so far the wheels:

Set one- 3
Set two- 3
Set three- 6
Other- 1

Set three is at the front of the pack!

This is easy.......the first set. Why? not busy looking +You'll more than likely well see that "type" of mesh wheel on Vipers.....only bigger! Chrome would look better vs. silver color rims.

Second set are "dated" when small wheels ruled, however the New GT rolls with 19/20...follow thier lead.

Third set are too modern. Fiero yes, GT no.

If it was my car 19/20 combo chrome mesh style rims or like the New GT. Why settle for anything less?
Oh yeah, shouldn't it be (2) lines along the side with the GT logo in the middle?

Hmmm... I'm having a tough time deciding on the wheels! I almost think a more "retro" style wheel would be more appropriate (thinking Cragars with Knockoffs, but I'm pretty sure we can't get those for the Fiero bolt-pattern or offset) - or at least something which has more of a "deep-dish" appearance. Heck, how about something in Gold?

If I'm recalling correctly - shouldn't the car be on display by about now?

[This message has been edited by MinnGreenGT (edited 01-29-2004).]

I like the first set, but I am a little partial. I have those on my car. Konig Rush. Those look like 17" though. Mine are only 16".

I'm partial to tuners (i.e. first set), but I think the car would look much better with a set of original or original-looking rims (the dark centers with big spinners). Barring that, you should go for some F1 tuner type rims.

BTW... Archie, that car is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! You're doing some great justice to one of the best race cars of all time ( the GT40, not the Fiero )
