Today I dropped in at B&N hotrods...
Chris showing me a sneak peek of Hugh's 308 super car 
Mags in box 
ZZ383 with 6 speed 
Super sub 
B&N's super cool store... I ended up picking the red style oval mirrors and some other cool stuff there. (The mirrors would look great on Hugh's 308 too ?) |

Hi Hugh, if you're still looking for short tips, the Corvette C6 tips are only 7.50" long and look great.

well things are starting to come along and aside from waiting for parts to show up it has all gone quite well for a project of this size, can't wait till I can see the finished product. It feels weird building my dream fiero but not getting to keep it in the end... LOL |

I think you may have misunderstood the post. Chris is building the car at B and N Customs, for Hugh. I don't think Hugh has any plans of EVER selling the car. Chris is just so happy with the car, he does not want to let it go after he is done building it. (I would be the same way, 6spd 383sbc, drool, 425hp) , I think Hugh should take the car to a race track to learn how the car responds. Hugh I am kinda serious about that idea though, you might want to look into some "Track Days" so that you can go out with a professional driver to learn the car before you start using it as your daily driver. The relative short wheelbase and extreme torque that this motor is going to make, will the car much more exciting to drive. |

Thats Very Cool. From what I am hearing from Chris it sounds like they are getting at least one more Fiero in after yours. If we give them enough busniess maybe we can keep them working on at least Fiero at all times.
