Title: Fiero trailer
Post by: GTRS Fiero on January 17, 2021, 10:37:17 am
Something I've long thought would be great to have, is a Fiero trailer, like the one made by Fieroguru.  Basically, the front of a Fiero, with the Fiero tail lights and rear bumper on the back.  Of course, the headlights would be removed, as well as all the guts.  Such a trailer would be spacious, and would fit the Fiero very well.

It occurs to me that some people may not have seen this trailer, so here are some pics.

Not sure I like it. Good from behind but from the front odd, eyes wondering where is rest of it.  Probably the asymmetricalness of it.
 Always been a fan of the 1938 Mullins trailer and the modern fiberglass copies.

It does stick out a bit to the side, behind the rear wheels.  Balance may be an issue.

Having seen trailers pulled by Fieros at events, this one looks very good, by comparison.

I google Fiero Trailers images and saw several notchback trailers that looked pretty good.  Some were maid by Fieroguru.  One had the luggage rack on it, and another had the bumperpad fascias.

Ralph, I take it you liked this idea.

I didn't want to clutter the other thread.

Yeah. I prefer the idea of doing a notchback but I have the GT so 🤷🏻‍♂️

For these purposes, it is only appearances.

I am curious how this will be implemented.

Yes and I like the appearance of the notchback more. 😂

The notchback reminds me of an ornery dog my sister used to have.

There is a thread on here with pics of my notchback.

I think the look would be helped tremendously if the wheels were spaced out another inch or two on each side.
But it's not bad, regardless. I'd rock it. I just don't have the time, skills, or parts to build it.

Edit - I might suggest trying to do it with 87/88/Formula bumper covers, front and rear.

Does your Fiero have a hitch?

Only two seats, no hitch..hiker. 😂

Nope

Since there are 2 fieros being parted out, making trailers of what's left would seem to be relatively easy.  Front, hood, back, wheels, wheel bearings, lights.  Just needs a box, shocks, and lots of work.

I was discussing that with Jordan while in the Cruise. He’s a welder.
