| I was heading down 132nd towards I5 around 2:00pm today and noticed a beater Fiero in the lane next to me. I think it started life as a burgundy color, but looked like it had been on fiire a couple of times. The burnt paint got my attention intialy, but then I noticed a blower sticking out of the rear hatch. Looked like a 3.8 GTP but there we no wires, covers etc on top of it. Anyone else seen this thing? |

Haven't seen that one, but saw a full electric conversion Fiero at an electric car display at Renton River Days a few weeks ago. The builder claimed it made over 500ft-lbs of torque! He was going to replace his current batteries with lithiums to decrease weight and was then planning to replace the tranny as he knew the stocker wasn't gonna handle the power. Pretty badass actually!  _________________ '86 Trans Am - 5.0L TPI - LT1 cam - 700R4 - WS6
