1986 Pontiac Fiero Gt - Stick Shift - All Original - 63k Miles - 2nd Owner! on 2040-cars
Lemont, Illinois, United States
|
For your consideration is an awesome 2 owner 1986 Pontiac Fiero GT. I bought this
beauty roughly a year ago from the original ownder and I have kept it in the
same all original condition as I purchased it in. This car has never
been in an accident. The original paint still looks pretty good for a 28 year old car as seen in the photos. The exterior has zero dents and the car has absolutely
NO RUST anywhere. A small piece of the trim was missing when I bought the car, so I bought a new piece and painted it myself (as seen in the pictures). It looks pretty good, and unless I mentioned I painted that myself, you likely would not have noticed, I just try to be honest. Also, it is missing the right side marker (as seen in the photos). This is really, not a big deal considering you don't need it, and if you choose to replace it, you can purchase one here on Ebay for around $30. The wheels are in good condition and the tires have plenty of tread left. The radio/stereo is all original and sounds fine. The interior in
this car is in very nice condition! There are no rips or stains on the seats, and the original headliner is not sagging like on most Fieros. Also, this has the optional sunroof added, which is a nice addition. I removed the glass over the speedometer when I purchased it (as seen in the pictures) because the glass was looking fogged, if you want to replace the glass I am sure a replacement can be bought and installed easily and inexpensively. The E-Brake is very hard to engage, and I have hard a hard time figuring out how to use it since the day I bought it. Maybe I just don't know how to use it, maybe the cable needs tightening, I am not sure. I just made sure that I never parked on a steep hill, and I put the car in gear instead. Finally, the power windows, power locks, and power head lights all work flawlessly! All in all, this is an original, great running, and solid piece of American Pontiac Muscle car history. If you're in the market to own a Fiero GT, this is the one for you. All original, less than 64,000 original miles, you will not believe this car is 28 years old. Simply put, you just don't find original unmolested Fiero GTs like this
anymore. This is a beautiful, sporty, and reliable car. I have taken this to local car shows over the past year and it really does garner a lot of attention. I mean how many cars can you buy for under $5000 and bring to a car show without doing any work? Please contact Colton at 630-800-5143 with any questions or to set up an appointment to see the car. I will respond to emails, calls, or text messages. - Thanks for looking! I really don't want to sell this car, but I just do not like driving a manual. The money I receive from selling this car is going towards another Fiero, but this time in automatic. There are not many Fieros left in this original condition, so don't miss your chance to pick up this American classic at a very affordable price! |

Junkyard Gem: 1989 Pontiac Sunbird SE Coupe
Sat, Jun 11 2022General Motors built the fantastically successful J-Body cars starting at the dawn of the 1980s and continuing well into our current century, on five continents. The Pontiac Division's version of the J started out being called the J2000 and the 2000, then got the Sunbird name originally used on the Pontiac-ized Chevy Monza starting in 1983. Here's a once-slick-looking 1989 Sunbird SE Coupe, found at a Minneapolis-area boneyard way back in 2016. The best-known of all the J-Body cars, here, was the Chevrolet Cavalier, but Pontiac far outdid even the most blinged-up Cavalier Z24 when it came to elaborate taillights. Because this is Minnesota, the car is a patchwork of various layers of junkyard-obtained rusty body parts. One fender has TURBO badges from a Sunbird GT. The other side has the correct engine badges for this model. That engine is a 2.0-liter, single-overhead-cam straight-four from an engine family originally developed for the Opel Kadett D. This one was rated at 96 horsepower when new. This one has the automatic transmission, so it wouldn't have been very much fun to drive. Check out that cool parking brake handle, though! And, hey, is that a full can of Colorado Cool-Aid in the foot well? You'd think a proper Minnesota Pontiac would at least be full of Grain Belt cans. It appears that Higley Ford in Windom, Minn., had this car on the lot at some point. Windom is closer to Sioux Falls than to Minneapolis. This final mileage total looks good for a car living in Tinworm Country. Pontiac built this generation of Sunbird from the 1988 through 1994 model years, though it was really just a facelift of the first-generation cars. Starting in 1995, the Pontiac J-Body became the Sunfire, and production continued until the J platform itself got the axe in 2005. This content is hosted by a third party.

CNN chronicles young girl building Pontiac Fiero
Fri, 26 Oct 2012At fourteen years of age, Kathryn DiMaria has already done what many self-proclaimed gearheads won't even attempt in their lifetimes. The Dearborn, Michigan teen is rebuilding a car from the ground up.
The intrepid youngster asked her parents when she was just twelve to start a Pontiac Fiero project, even offering to pony up all the funds herself. Father, Jerry DiMaria only expected the project to last a few months, but two years later, Kathryn is still at it. In this CNN video, the two are at Maker Faire (a DIY festival) rebuilding a 3.4-liter V6 engine out of a Chevrolet Camaro to replace the 2.8-liter mill found in the Fiero.
The whole family hast pitched in, with Kathryn's mother teaching her how to sew in order to complete the interior, father Jerry providing much of the technical know-how, and even her sister is chronicling Kathryn's progress through photos. Jerry even started a thread in a Fiero forum which has been live for two years and is now 22 pages long. Of the project, one forum member wrote, "welcome to the madness."
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
