Clynt dropped by and playing with brackets to hold lower fender in place, upper fender and hood to flip up all in one
Cutting out window opening on rear deck lid...
I always loved Skitimes window exposing the 3800SC, I had to have one too
RBS2 will never look as good as Skitimes's RBS2 3800 needs lots of polishing and cool paint job also no intercooling to raise the supercharger higher up
Cutting out rear extractor and third brake light panel
Good weekend

This car has AMAZING lines. I am new to this site and I scrolled through all the pages looking at pics. Excuse me but I have to ask. Is this going to be a moldable kit when finished, or is this just a one off? I think if you were to mold it, people would buy it! I def would consider buying this as a kit.

Nope. Car-Lo makes one-of-a-kind vehicles.
Speaking of, where's he at? Last update was in October!
Lookin' good Car-Lo. Weather outside is cold & wet again...no more outdoor bodyshop for a while. Your neighbors must be very understanding.
Thanks Amida, that's what we get living in the north west I'm slowing down neighbors are always coming over to chat
Clynt came over and welded nuts under frame (wing can be removable with bolts) We trimmed wing to size, edge needs to be bevelled later on short afternoon.
Clynt and I just got back from Blaine WA. U.S. (only 1/2 hour drive from Vancouver ) picked up goodies for RBS2. Free shipping to "Hagen's of Blaine" also NO DUTY & TAX
A local club member suggested I check out this thread. So I clicked on it, started scrolling down to see what all the hubbub is about, and...
OH MY FREAKING GAWD!!!
John, this has to be the most radical build I've seen on this forum. It makes my car look like a weekend project in comparison. Keep up the great work!

hehehe,...i am sure you are not alone,... there are still a lot of people on pennocks who have no idea this is all going on here.
When they find out they will have the same reaction as you or be even more surprised.
I still have the opinion that RBS-2 should not have been cut up, you could have used RBS-2 as your daily driver and took the sawzall to a different Fiero. RBS-2 was an amazing ride and everyone loved it, even though it only had a 3800SC, I still loved it. I'll bet it cried a little tear when you took the first cut with the sawzall.
However I do understand rising from the ashes is something bigger and better.
P.S. the nose on my car got dinged a bit while on its trip down to the shop for the new motor, so come spring I'll need you to help me mix a batch of filler so I can fill in the chips and sand it over. Nothing deeper than the thickness of a toonie, but probably and inch long. I believe you left some of the mix here, what kinda of shelf life does that stuff have?

I still love(d) and missed the look of the old version. At least you'll have some interesting "before, before again, and after" pictures for you photo album.
Hey guys!! loooong time no see. just hijacked the in laws computer for a bit lol good to see carlo and his henchman is still at work in the lab. Good to see the progress on others cars while mine is in drydock again for the winter and garageless. That is until the spring when hopefully the tax gods may shine on us for one last buying season until the day we can hit the streets again lol. Who knows maybe we will meet on a far off road when summer is here and the time is right for some racing in the streets.... eh?
Has anybody claimed the rear bumper from old RBS? I may be interested if no one else has taken it yet.
Terry
A little photo chop that puts a smile on my face I enjoy your photo chops too
It's snowing today looks like we'll have a white Christmas
Rear old RBS bumper and tail light panel is still available, it's a widebody fit at 69" wide (will have to be cut to fit stock)

Thank you so much Blacktree, I'm very lucky to have a buddy like Clynt helping out with his skills, he's having too much fun than me and always pushing me to play with RBS2
Please PM me total with shipping ... just bumper part ... I already have blank tail light panel ... G6V-9T6..... I also have a purolator account if you have a good price for both items let me know regards Danyel

Danyel, I'm very sorry I'll be swapping both parts locally here, it's a lot easier for me.
You have turned me into a RBS-2 junkie. I start getting all itchie if I go more than a few days without getting to see an update.
Thank you all for having fun watching two grumpy old men playing with RBS2 It's getting to cold and we're busy with family TO BE CONTINUED sometime in January
Although there is not one part the same, there is something about your build that makes me think of the new Aventador which I like a lot more than the limited production Reventon. Just another fan of your awe inspiring work!
