We now have a ChopTop Kit available for the Pontiac Fiero chassis
This Chop Top kit is not for the beginner welder or fabricator. It requires structural welding & cutting. By purchasing this kit you are certifying that you understand the structural integrity of the Fiero chassis & are capable of maintaining that integrity with your welding & fabricating skills. And you understand that screwing up the welding & thus the structural integrity of the chassis can put lives & health in danger.
It also requires fiberglassing skills. You will be doing some fiberglassing on the body as you put it back together.
The Kit for the fastback Fiero GT consists of the following: 1 pair of Glass Side windows 1 set (4 pc.) of Left & Right “A” & “B” pillar covers for the interior. Allowing for the 3” ChopTop 1 pair of the GT quarter window inside trim triangles A wood pattern for the rear window. A glass rear window A set of complete instructions for the chassis work & the necessary body work. The total price for this kit is $1650.00.
The Kit for the notchback Fiero body style consists of the following: 1 pair of Glass Side windows 1 set (4 pc.) of Left & Right “A” & “B” pillar covers for the interior. Allowing for the 3” ChopTop A wood pattern for the rear window. A glass rear window A set of complete instructions for the chassis work & the necessary body work. The total price for this kit is $1500.00.
Option: If you want to have your own rear window made locally, you can subtract $200.00 from the prices & use the wooden pattern to have your window made locally. This also will save as much as $100.00 on shipping costs.
This is a limited offer, for now I'm going to limit it to 10 kits.

Hello Archie, let me know when you ship the kit I've been looking forward to this project for years. I will keep you updated with the progress. Oh by the way it's Ron Smigla but I'm sure you figured that out after looking at my Username. I don't post on the forum that much. Definatley glad you made this kit ! Thanks Ron

I saw one of Archies chop tops and it looked super. If I had the time to do it ( and complete it) , I would buy this kit. It really improves the appearance of the Fiero. I would estimate that the conversion would take a fabricator with ordinary skills about 80-100 hours to complete.

I was wondering, did the price get adjusted from the original post? I am interested in the kit,but price seems different, could be mixed up with all the projects I have been looking at and pricing.
archie, You should make a roadster kit. Cut here,her, and here and add this bracing and these plastic panels and your done. type of kit for gt or coupe.
Just got my parts today Thanks, Archie I did the chop yesterday and today I cut the body to fit it as well as fit your parts and they fit gerat with no mods at all. D.
