I was really giving Daytona some thought but the $ for round trip transport in a inclosed trailer is a bit much, plus she maybe in the shop for a few more mods.
I Know, I know, this will have nothing to do with the lovely car buuuttttt I really like the trailer with the black/white checkered floor! Reminds me of a hotrod shop floor and very fitting for the car!
So I drove my car to work yesterday and on the way home I decided to stop by the park and chill in the shade and cool down from traffic while I returned some phone calls...... And that's when it happened, I was surrounded by the youngest car jackers in history. Things will never be the same..... Well just until I clean all the fingerprints off :-) .

Was it because the of the rear engine bay strut tower width difference for engine clearence?
Happy Holidays !!
Thanks,
It was the car that I had at the time I decide to do a IMSA kit .. Then I added a chop and then I added a .......... ect. If I had to do it all again I wouldn't change a thing (well maybe use a held front end ). Never thought about the strut tower thing but that would have been a problem as we needed every inch and still had to notch the strut tower on the passenger side.

All I got to say, over the years...great work !! Its nice to see a un-ordinary, customized hot-rodded fiero. This car will be one for the books...
Would you mind telling what is the height from the floor to the front lowest part of the front bumper ?
I know that you have the reinforcement that Archie build for the bottom of the nose, but what do you do when you come up to a speed bump ? or a driveway with an incline ? any help is appreciated

Ok its time for a lil update, sorry Archie no true springtime pics as we are still waiting for it to arrive lol . But I do have a few pics from my wintertime repairs and upgrades.
First repair was last June when I had to replace an axle, I decided to do the work myself with detailed instructions from Archie. My brother Thomas also joined in for the fun with Archie on the phone.
Archie to the rescue with detailed instructions with over 15 pics on a flash drive. Archie's new book how to change axles for dummies . Archie's rescue package included this
LOL, after all this time I see shuanbag is still trolling my car ... too funny. Dude grow up, get a job, get laid and build whatever you want by whoever you want.

LOL, the request for the Spring time updates was a poke that we have a lot better weather than you do this weekend.
BTW, I think Shaunbag got fired from the drive up window job at Taco Bell.
