What to do when you want the only the Lamborghini design without paying all that crzy prices? It's simple you make one of your own! Armed with time, pacience and skills, the steel manufacturer Woody, from Canada has done a tremendous job by transforming a $ 60 mid-engine Pontiac Fiero into a Lamborghini Reventon.
All the work proofs was done with a lot of talent, Woody did an excellent job by transferring the proportions of Reventon to Fiero chassis. The car has also a name of her own: Woodghini.
When you're rocking Sant'Agata style, you can not do with an Iron Puke or even the L44 V6. Woody's tucking a hotted-up GM small-block under the engine hatch, under pressure atmosphere fueled by a pair of turbos. The blow-through carburetor is a little too old for our tastes, but we are sure it does not go against this car beeing a wheeled rocket.

feel sorry for serious fiero guys.. their cars are known for being the clowns as kit cars..
Seriously for its era fieros dont look bad.. could potentially be cool ive seen some crazy v8 swaps.. but dunno how they handle.
Porsche Boxster is a more expensive chassis to build on. I actually like Boxsters
The only kit car i want

Ive ridden in a LS1 powered fiero, to say it was the most bit unsettling feeling on earth.

I dunno. I have to give it to the guy. He did a great job on the construction plus the Twin Turbo V8 engine has to be near 500 hp. Once done, I doubt if anyone will know its not a Lamborghini. He just needs to spend a few grand on better wheels. I'd drive it, I bet its great for one night stands.

there's also these
But the lambo on top looks pretty dope. Maybe Hyundai or Daewoo can pick up this body and put it on the market.

I'm not gonna judge someone with such fabrication skill until it's finished then I'll judge their cosmetic taste.

i cant really take the time to click the link. is the build finished or still in progress? from what ive seen its not horrible.
fieros and aw11 mr2s are neck&neck with each other. i'd probably be more enthusiastic about it if it was an aw11. cant tell you why really, probably because im such a fanboi for the toyotas.
the only kit car i would personally like to mess with is the funky old ones that use an aircooled vw for the base
like these:

i'd swerve the OP. and i'd swerve a factory bodied fiero GT. but i've never seen any kit on a fiero other than the OP (and that's not a kit) that looked anywhere near good.

Still in progress. Looks like he just need some small stuff done.
I weighed the car on the way back from a car show and it was just over 2000 pounds without the motor/transmission/glass and some minor parts. It should be in the 3000-3500 pound range for sure, with most of the weight just ahead of the rear tires.

No hate here at all. i'd totally drive it. Its worlds better than any other fiero bastardization i've ever seen.
Like someone sorta mentioned, its perfect for picking up those super hot yet worthless materialistic skanks downtown. Get your game on. lol

Bah whatever. someone needs to make a fucking Tumbler/Batmobile replica already.
Fun fact, no car company in American thought the Tumbler/Batmobile could feasibly or realistically be built, so movie dudes brought the idea to england, and a small group there built it.
Good ol' American ingenuity fails again.
but will it handle like the real one?

I wanna build the starship Enterprise.
I'll start with a Fiero.
I'll give it that it looks better than most other Fiero hack jobs I've seen and he's at least giving it some attention under the hood. However, it's still a Fiero... and it's not a Reventon, no matter what you do.

With some deep rims and stance would be a nice little kitcar

any mod that involves "stretching and widening" of the frame kinda looses the base car.. The problem most people with v8 swaps is that they either put a porsche gearbox with a welded diff... or the cheapie 5 spd with open diff... 400HP.. 1 wheel burn out... priceless.

wow that looks amazing! this guy has some serious skill to make a fiero look anything close to that car. Its not like hes some dude who just bought his poorly made fiberglass kit that doesnt fit together that was molded off a real lambo. This guy probably hasnt even seen a real real reventon and yet he managed to make this car. Props to him for that.
id hit it. +1
