HOLY **** ! The fastback lines on that car are amazing. It's almost exactly what I have drawn up. I want to see more. Best widebody I have seen. It looks like the sails have been brought in but actually the body has been built out. (If I am correct)

Now that is hot !!



i remember when he first got his dubs ! Pre-widebody.



Very close to what i have in mind with my choptop, using the madcurl/ v-8Archie widebody kit.



widebody is definatly the way to go if you want to customize or mod up your fiero beyond stock.

WOW Car-Lo, that is looking pretty HOT!!!!
Looks like Madcurl has some competition......and I think you might have yours in paint before he does (no offence Curly) .....how long has this "project widebody" been in the works????

Oh.....do you have any build-up pictures of the widebody. Kinda curious if you made molds out of fiberglass, or are going to paint over the bodywork "build-up"!

This is, "All Good" in my book. I love it when a person raises the bar and tweaks the heck out of their Fieros. Not only did he widen the Fiero, he tweaked the rocker opening and made it straight instead of a curved or corner----- It's that type of creativness I love. Granted, he has DUBs too, hehe. Whats "best" about it,.....its still a Fiero. By his creation, "All those who could have gone, "Wide body" but didn't are now on notice.

Whose car will be painted first? Not me since I have too serve "Mankind" by keeping my car ar Archie's, hehe.



#015 (old news, hehe)

NO it's way to beautiful to chop! The widebody makes the stock top look perfect. I cannot wait to read your buildup.

When I see these I understand that my next step is to go wide. 100% sure.
Is the wide peace on the pic for sale somewhere or home made?

Really nice chopped, that's what I always wanted too!

Hey Sharkman, don't eat Flipper above you, he he.
The rear extenstions are only from fastback rear clip cut to fit.

You are amazing at fiberglass! I wish I could do that kind of stuff. I would pay a lot for a rear clip/doors like that because there is no way I would do that myself.
