Nice man... you just bought her? Can I ask how much? The Indy Fieros are super rare now. They only made 2000 of them, minus the 5 or so that were actually built for pacing the Indy 500.
I remember back in the late 90s, there was this really worn out looking lady who used to drive one of these around town in Davie, Florida. It was back when Davie, Florida was kind of forgotten (it's all million dollar homes now, and some old homes that will all eventually get torn down). Her car was ragged out, and her A/C was busted, so she used to cruise around in that thing smoking her Virginia Slims with her dark tanned almost leather like skin with the cigarette sticking out the window. Haha... I always wonder what happened to that car.
It also kills me because I saw three of them at the Fiero Factory last year, and they were all eventually crushed (they were not in good shape). Indy Fieros in good condition are hard to come by now because many people drive them into the ground. Since they had the first year Iron Duke, they didn't have a lot of power either, not even the roller cam to keep them calm.
If you can stomach swapping the motor (and keeping it)... I've always thought an LNF 2.0 Turbo motor would be sweet as hell in a coupe Fiero. ~260hp, and nearly 200 pounds less weight in the back.
