1984 Pontiac Fiero

[Chuck Most]

I'm just going to call it done before that damned black side trim drives me nuts. It's the old MPC kit with Pegasus wheels, all the nutty IMSA-style body add-ons, and a turbocharged Oldsmobile Northstar V8. One of these days I'll get the trim touched up. A less-conspicuous muffler may also end up on it.

Very cool!looks like the cars running around on the roads today!

Very unique!

I'm curious...is it a Fiero (according to the topic title) or an Oldsmobile (according to the trunk)?

Hybrid! Sorta like the '79 Trans Am I had that had a 403 Oldsmobile engine in it from the factory! LOL

 

This little Fiero looks pretty wicked!! Nice job!

[NYLIBUD]

Definitely different looking.Excellent job.

Looks good. I had an Fiero Formula once upon a time, it was a pretty cool little car.

[crazyjim]

Cool and interesting build.

Looks like a fun project.  Good to see a scarce kit get built.  Feel your pain regarding neatly painting the trim, I try to avoid any brush painting if possible.  I've masked and airbrushed window trim before.

Very cool little Pontiac!

Another option for black trim is a sheet of black BMF.

    Chuck put a Norstar V8 from Oldsmobile in the car.   ie- Olds powered!!

By the way Chuck, awesome build of a rarely seen model car!!!

So if I put a Cadillac engine in a '38 Buick the car becomes a Cadillac?

  Well that's a stupid question!!!  Obviously not, but it would(as I said! )

become a Cadillac  POWERED  Buick, yes!?!

   And I am sure you don't have a `38 Buick kit!!!

So, back to my original question: is it a Fiero (according to the topic title) or an Oldsmobile (according to the trunk)?
