Re: hatch mod

You are not uploading any images that we can see.



Is this the hatch you are looking for? It's a notchback hatch and may be purchased used or on the Hawks web page.

Re: hatch mod

The lines of it look pretty close to our back windows so why not try to make one yourself. Would be a cool project, you could make it the way you want it, and it would cost less then buying one pre-made. So make a fiberglass mold of your back window, then make the hatch. maybe you could use fiero glass and I think those cars have some type of lovers like that too don't they.

Re: hatch mod

I have that hatch - I believe it made made by C&C. I had one in the 90s, and stupidly sold the car. Just bought my current one locally - though it was for sale on the board here too. But it's not for sale - unless you have more money than brains...I have plans for it I do have a nice stock one though, listed in the for sale section.
My friend what looks like what I think of as the Contempo hatch; similar in flavor to what you're looking for:

I saw it today, it's in pretty good shape.

Re: hatch mod

PS - someone emailed him and said something like; "I hate to burst your bubble, but that's from a Fiero" Having owned 2 Fieros, this was a pretty entertaining 'observation.'
