I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to my project build site. Throughout this website, you will be able to follow my project as I slowly transform my 1985 Pontiac Fiero into a high performance sports car which will closely resemble the beautiful Ferrari 355 Spider. I say "resemble" because while I will make every effort to duplicate the looks and even the performance of the classic Ferrari, my ultimate goal is to build a car which appeals to my personal taste in automobiles and once complete and ready for the road, will not be a true replica of the Ferrari 355.
Please note that while I feel confident in my ability to design and build the various components necessary as well as integrate off the shelf components whenever possible for my own personal vehicle, I make no claims or guarantees regarding the suitability, quality or effectiveness of the above mentioned designs and components for others to duplicate. I am merely documenting my project as I progress through the various stages so that I have a cohesive and chronological record of what I have done and in some cases redone.
I encourage you to read my posts containing relatively coherent text with accompanying semi focused photographs as well as descriptive and sometimes colorful drawings, graphs and 3D images. If you have questions or comments regarding material I have posted whether it be constructive criticism, requests for clarification or even just a good ol' pat on the shoulder, please feel free to leave a comment on the site or email at [email protected]. I promise to check the site regularly and respond quickly when appropriate to do so.
Again, thank you for taking the time to follow my build project. I hope you will find it both interesting and entertaining as well as informative and educational.
Finally, a special thanks to my wife Susan and children Katherine, Jordan and Kirk who have always supported my project and even participate in the construction from time to time. I hope someday that they get as much joy from driving this car as I have had building it.
Sincerely
Graham
