nothing against archie, or any other fiero based GT40 replica sellers, but id never buy one to put on a fiero. I believe the 40 in GT40 means it needs to be 40" from the ground to the roof, it wouldn't look right imo. If i were rich, id like to get a GT40 kitcar with the tubeframe chassis and all.

Actually my GT40 was accurate, it wasn't built using the stock Fiero roofline which is too high.
I love GT40's & the NAF & ASPP are very cool GT40's. They are not 100% accurate but they're very cute none the less.
Here's some pics of one I put a V-8 into.
Be careful who you buy the kits from, in my book NAF & ASPP is the only approved source.

I like the looks of Archie's GT4T. I wonder why he didn't post pictures of it.
Archie probably didn't post pics of his GT4T kit because I stated that I was looking for pics and info of the NAF kit and not his, mostly because I've already seen what his kit looks like (very awesome kit, btw, just also has a very awesomely high price tag that is higher than I can afford) and pics of the other kit seems to be really scarce. But if Archie wants to post pics of his kit he has all the right to. In fact...Archie, if you're reading, if you would like to share any pics of the GT4T that you have (maybe some that haven't been posted on your site?), please do!

Definitely not a commuter car! Looks like whoever owns that GT40 made some major modifications to their fiero's chassis before putting the kit on it... Super sweet pics, that car is tight!

To sum it up: lots and lots of searching for the right body kit. Originally I was going to get a diablo kit but it required stretching the chassis, so I started looking for an easier (and less expensive) kit that would be a straght bolt-on, no extra skills or time required. Found many kits from many companies (e.g., PISA, Feirari, V-8 Archie's kits, etc.), but I finally settled on this one. Why? Oh, I just liked the style of it, mostly. Plus I think it was the youtube video that really got me hooked. Anyways, long story short, tracked down the company, found that they're still making the kits, so now all that's left is shelling out the greenbacks to get the kit.
