Some self-made lore:

Spoiler

After production of the Bolide began in Europe in 1981, Civetta looked around for a company to help them import it into the ever-expanding US market, and happened upon the McFly Sunroof Company, a business who specialised in modifying vehicles for different segments or markets and most famous for their sunroof and convertible conversions for vehicles such as the Gavril Barstow and Burnside Special. Civetta instructed MSC to "federalize" their cars with suitable front and rear bumpers as well as providing the engines with fuel injection and other measures to meet stricter US emissions standards. MSC set to work, and in spring 1983 came out with the first USDM Civetta Bolide that was completely federally legal. They also came up with some changes of their own, including two types of targa roof for higher trim models and even partnering with Hirochi for the use of their famous turbocharged flat-4 engines for use in a base model - a move that the bosses back in Italy weren't very fond of and was quickly canned after only a few hundred units were produced. After 8 years Civetta officially announced they were stopping production of the Bolide citing stagnating sales, however MSC soon approached Civetta with an generous offer to purchase the tooling to make Bolide chassis and parts, which had previously been made in Italy and shipped over to the United States for modifying. Civetta accepted their offer and sent off the unneeded toolings and mouldings to MSC's main factory in Michigan.

Upon arrival, MSC set about designing slightly updated Bolides with a twist - they would be powered by cheaper, more fuel efficient Bruckell V6 engines and available with both manual and automatic gearboxes to suit a wider US market. MSC were certain that this was going to be a successful business decision, and within a few months they had production-ready prototypes with aerodynamic fixed headlights and a revised gauge cluster. They decided to keep the name Bolide as it was already associated with a successful supercar but instead sold it under their own brand - McFly. They even came up with an official-sounding slogan "The McFly Bolide: Italian style, American built." On paper the idea was solid, and they predicted a steady stream of customers and good reviews. However, when the press cars hit the road and the models hit the showroom in fall 1992 it didn't look good. The reviews gave it poor scores, citing outdated technology, underpowered engines and the frankly woeful 3-speed automatic gearbox, and not even the option of the first targa roof for a non-high trim model could get people to buy them. After less than 2 years on the market and even featuring in an extremely successful blockbuster movie the car was canned and MSC retreated back to making convertibles and conversions with their tail between their legs and their bank accounts quite a bit shallower. In 2017, after over a decade of poor sales, they shut their doors for good.

My McFly Bolide is the 336 "Automatico" model with the 3-speed automatic that I picked up for a very low price a few years ago. I initially bought the Soliad G4000 DSE you can also see outside my house as a parts vehicle due to them sharing the same engine, but I ended up not needing any substantial engine parts and got quite attached to the car, now keeping it as my daily.

The Soliad Fieri was an fairly successful attempt by Bruckell's premium division to create a mass-market 2-seater sports car with a choice of inline 4s and V6s and all models being available with either automatic or manual transmissions. My Fieri however has been given the gift of a flatplane V8 from a Civetta Bolide 320 mated to a 4-speed manual transmission, creating an incredibly fast and dangerous American coupe with the roar of an Italian beast. I purchased the car with a cracked engine block last year and set about trying to repair it when a friend in the USDM Bolide community offered me this American-specification engine from a 1983 320 to put in it. Surprisingly it fit like a glove, however the 5-speed gearbox wouldn't fit in the tight engine bay which forced me to use the original 4-speed 'box with some reinforcements for the extra power. Additionally, I've added stronger rear shock absorbers to help balance out the rear owing to the extra weight of the V8

 

Where did you get that bodykit and louvers for the sbr4?

Theres a program to do that, as well as some blender magic.
