Tube/Fiero built by myself

Well, I had a good day in the garage today. Got started on the chassis and bending some tubing. I decided to back half the car and be done with it. I also added a dash bar which is burried under the dash and not in the way. This will add support for the 2 ft end bars. They will also act as my coil over mounts if all goes well.

It will have 12.75 Vette brakes / Wilwood calipers up ft w/coil overs. In the rear 11" chrysler rotors w/caddy calipers and Konis w coil over conversion.

The best part is, all this stuff is made by myself with a little help in the machine work dept. from some friends, no store bought bolt on kits.

I really enjoy doing this and this is the first project of this type I'm doing. I've built a few street rods for folks and I want to build some stuff for myself this time. I really appreciate all the help from everyone, and hope I can return the favor(s). What a nice bunch of people I've met from The Lambo lounge, the Diablo builder's forum , and Dale's site..Finally, people out there who share my interest and passion for these cars.
