I am selling this Fiero due to knee surgery. It's difficult for me to get in and out of it now. Otherwise, I would keep it! I do "NOT" know the true mileage of this Fiero. I bought it used and it came with two other instrument clusters that I no longer have. The existing cluster was partially removed when I bought the car. I do "NOT" know if the cluster has been swapped, although I suspect it has. The mileage that I listed is the approximate number that is on the current installed cluster. Again, I do "NOT" know the true mileage of this Fiero! The interior of this Fiero is in beautiful condition! Even the driver's seat and carpet are in beautiful condition! The edges of the console is "NOT" curled up!!! There is a new roof liner installed also. But it needs a little attention around the corners of the sun roof as seen in the pictures. There is a crack on top of the dash behind the instrument cluster briefly visible in the video. The engine sub frame or cradle appears to be a "NEW" replacement! The only rust I see is the "former" battery tray which was removed before I bought this Fiero. This rust is visible in one of the videos. It's really only the edge remnants of the old battery tray. This Fiero does "NOT" include the Yellow Top battery seen in some of the videos of this car! It does include a good standard battery that you see in the pictures. I bought this Fiero with the engine swap already done by a previous owner. I was told that the engine was leaking coolant. From the condition of the freeze plugs, I assumed they were the source of the leaks. While replacing them, I discovered the cracked block. The cracks are typical of what happens when there water freezes in the cooling system without anti freeze. This was after I installed a new radiator and heater core. I do "NOT" remember if the radiator is a 3 or 4 core. This radiator is the one that is highly recommended for this V8 swap into a Fiero. I have "NEVER" installed any coolant in the cooling system due to the cracked block. The engine does start and run! But I have "NEVER" driven it other than very briefly in my yard. It is powerful in this small car! If you look at the Youtube video of the under carriage of this Fiero, the cracks are the thin rusty stains near the top of the block. The 4 speed M17 Muncie manual transmission shifts very smoothly! There is a "NEW" clutch slave cylinder and "NEW" clutch master cylinder installed. The clutch fluid has been flushed with new fluid installed. There is an electric fuel pump and filter mounted "outside" of the fuel tank. NEW fuel lines have been installed. The exhaust is two "Glass Packs". They are very loud!!! I have been told by some big rig mechanics that I could probably fix the coolant leak with products like "Blue Devil Cracked Block Sealer" and so forth. They claim to use this product on cracked blocks in big rigs and Cats with great success!!! I have considered using this product. That's why I have not put coolant in the engine.
Here is a YouTube video made 11/18/13 of the engine starting and running. The carb does "NOT" have a choke. So I have to pump the gas pedal to start it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wUPYlV6TTc0 Here is a YouTube video made 10/27/13 of the inside and outside of the Fiero. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ye4Lk67Ifcg Here is a YouTube video made 11/20/13 of the under carriage of this Fiero. I was laying on my back on an overcast, gloomy, rainy day. So not the best video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jhi9cRSHSWw The hard To Find "Wind Deflector" for use when sunroof is removed, is included! The 4 matching tires have at least 90% tread remaining as can be seen in the pictures.
There is well over $4000 in extras put into this Fiero! That does "NOT" include the 350 V8 engine, the price of the car itself, or any taxes, shipping, or labor to do the swap!!! Here's some of the main added extras! -"New" Edelbrock Intake Manifold -"New" Edelbrock Carb -"New" Accel HEI Distributer -"New" Radiator (has NEVER had a drop of fluid in it yet!) -"New" Sport Comp Tachometer -"New" Complete Exterior Body Molding Set (Original is still on car) -"New" Sail Windows -"New" Roof Liner Materials -"New" Trunk Lid Scoop -"New" Upper & Lower Radiator Hoses (has NEVER has a drop of fluid in it yet!) -"New" Heater Core (has NEVER had a drop of fluid in it yet!) -"New" Clutch Master Cylinder -"New" Clutch Slave Cylinder -"New" Clutch/Brake Pedal Covers -"New" Sub Woofer Speaker And Sound Deadening Material -"New" Speakers -"New" Parking Brake Cable (not installed) -"New" Oil Pressure/Water Temp Gauge Set -"Genuine" Pontiac Fiero Shop Service Manual I also have some used items such as headlights and other small items that go with this Fiero.
This Fiero came with the desirable factory installed "sub woofer" system. I replaced the "missing" factory sub woofer with a highly recommended after market sub woofer designed to closely fit into the existing housing. I also installed the fiber fill cushioning into the sub woofer housing as recommended in many Fiero forums. This Fiero has minor cosmetic issues as would be expected of a vehicle this age. But nothing significant. I have attempted to be as detailed in my description as possible. If you have any specific questions, please do not hesitate to ask them! There are "NO" dumb questions!
If you plan to do a V8 swap into a Fiero, then this car will save you a ton of money and work! The hard work has already been done! You either use a liquid block sealer or short block it! All of the actual conversion work has been done!!!
My reserve price is very reasonable for this car. I "WILL" Consider A Possible Trade Arrangement For Or Towards A Corvette. But "NO" junk or extreme high mileage Vettes! I am willing to add a small amount of cash if needed. I will "NOT" consider anything with a rusted or damaged frame or rusted bird cage area. Or anything that requires major mechanical work. Cosmetic and body work problems are ok. If in doubt, do not hesitate to ask me. I prefer C3 Vettes and late model C4. And of course C5 Vettes if cheap enough!
My Fiero will have to be trailered to your location, at your expense. I do not recommend driving it do to the cracked block
I have this vehicle listed locally and I reserve the right to remove this listing at any time.
The winning bidder is required to leave a $1000 deposit through PayPal within 48 hours after the end of this auction . Once you leave the $1000 deposit, I am very willing to store this Fiero up to 30 days, in my driveway, if that will help you. However, I will "NOT" assume any responsibility for the vehicle if you choose this option.
Feel free to ask questions. I will answer them as soon as I can...usually within 12 hours.
I do have a "Clean and Clear" North Carolina title in my possession.
Happy Bidding and Happy Thanksgiving!!! |

Pontiac could be a phoenix rising from the ashes
Tue, Apr 18 2017Of the deceased American car companies from the past 50 years such as Hummer, Mercury, Oldsmobile, Plymouth and Saturn, I believe the most worthy resurrection would be Pontiac. After all, it's no longer politically correct to drive an ex-military vehicle with single-digit gas mileage, nor do Millennials and Gen-Xers desire AARP-associated nameplates such as Mercury or Oldsmobile. Pontiac was originally founded in 1893 by Albert G. North and Harry G. Hamilton as the Pontiac Buggy Company, due to their location in Pontiac, Michigan. But as the early 1900s automotive revolution took off, they shifted their focus from horse-drawn carriages to motorized transportation. Taking a cue from Oakland County where they were based, they rebranded their organization as the Oakland Motor Company. Within a couple years, sales of Oakland cars were so good that it caught the attention of General Motors and they bought the company. In 1926, GM premiered the first Pontiac and its name drew inspiration from the legendary Native American War Chief, who was famous for the Battle of Bloody Run and opposition of British forces. His likeness was used in early promotional materials as well as the vehicle's emblem which was referred to simply as the "Indian Head". In 1956, the outdated emblem was replaced with a new, sleeker logo that resembled a red arrow head. It was known as "The Dart" and featured a singular star in the center which may have been a nod to Pontiac's successful Star Chief model. The 1960s saw the introduction of several popular models such as the GTO and the Firebird. The GTO was initially offered as an option package on the 1964 Tempest, and the name was the brainchild of John Delorean, who would later go on to form his own eponymous automobile company. The Firebird debuted in 1967 as a pony-car foil to Ford's award-winning Mustang. Although mechanically similar to Chevrolet's Camaro, the Firebird boasted a distinct sheetmetal nose and tail to help visually distinguish it. The 1980s were another adventurous time for Pontiac, and GM took advantage of the sales momentum by running a successful ad campaign. It proclaimed "We Build Excitement" and highlighted an arrangement with musicians Daryl Hall and John Oats. The fiery Fiero was a home-run for Pontiac and it was introduced in 1983 as an '84 model. Not only was it the first U.S. produced mid-engine sports coupe, but it also utilized lightweight, dent-resistant body panels.
Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial
Sat, 16 Mar 2013
The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.

There isn't any overly flashy chrome or decals.
