Not a difficult conversion. For anyone considering a Fiero conversion,  try 
to find the last year GT ('88?).  That has an upgraded Lotus suspension  and 
brakes. GM was just getting it right and they killed it. Has anyone else  ever 
seen the dealer installed Ferrari body kit? I bought my '64 Plymouth  convert 
off a guy who had two of those and 4 regular GT's. He also had 4 Ariel  square 
fours. Interesting guy.
