1987 Pontiac Fiero Gt V6 2.8 Liter Digital Dashboard Gauges Sunroof R134 A/c on 2040-cars
Canfield, Ohio, United States
------------------RELISTING due to a non available, non paying bidder.-----------------------
Buy it now and I will throw in the Alltest code scanner for you. UPDATE: I checked the CE light. It did not store anything so it was most likely the O2 sensor. Some previous questions asked on the car: Can I fly/be-driven up to Ohio and is the car capable of being driven back to (Florida, Georgia) ? Absolutely, its ready to drive, tires, oil change, H20 - Not to long ago I drive it to work in Pittsburgh every day for a week, that's 600 miles. Can I pay you half now then give you a check that you can cash next week? No "Pay-you-later" post dated checks. If you don't have a few thousand dollars, then please don't bid. How much rust is on the car? As listed, heavier amount around the wheel wells, lighter is other places such as the actual bottom of the car, structually sound frame for floor jacks and such. Does the rear deck stay up on its own ? Yes, No problems there I am the 2nd Owner. Its considered to be a weekly driver car, not a polished show-car...yet...I do not drive it every day, just every few weeks Note that a New (Rebuilt) Jasper(I believe) V6 Motor was installed in the 1999-2000 time-frame. Has a higher/Smoother RPM than the stock motor. Less than 20,000 miles on the motor (120,000 on the frame) Clean Title. The reported accident was a VERY minor one (front corner) , before I ever owned it. Priced reasonable to sell. The custom dash and strong engine is easily worth the purchase price alone. (The cluster can be removed and/or replaced/put into another Fiero without too much difficulty...no modifications, drilling or re-wiring, basically plugs in, similar to the OEM cluster) When this car is driven, it is from Point A to B. Never stop-and-go city. All Highway, that's why the brakes rarely wore out. Still gets about 28 Mpg (no punching it for this mpg...) Service History: I still have most (but NOT all ) service receipts which include: Front Wheel Bearings 1999, Both rear Struts in 2000, New (Rebuilt) V6 Motor around 1999-2000 @ 101,172, V-Belt, Cap & Rotor in 2001, A/C Compressor overhaul in 2003, Brakes, Rotors, Calipers in November 2004, Thermostat, Coolant & Exhaust with Stainless Catalytic Converter in 2007, Battery 2008, Antifreeze & Freon in 2010, Front Inner & Outer Wheel Bearings in June 2012, Alignment is good, Replaced Brake Slave Cylinder April 2014, Replaced Rear Caliper and Flex Line in August 2014 (caliper probably needs bleed again, not as firm as I want it...), and of course oil and filter changes. Comes with Alpine CDM 7835 AM/FM/CD with 6-Disk changer behind the seat (Removable Face), mini Kenwood EQ and a custom speaker box behind the drivers seat (2-6x9's that act as a subwoofer), has a smaller (than stock) Grant GT leather steering wheel. There is a small chip in the windshield which has been there for at least 10 years. (never gets bigger) Drivers seat is all grey, passenger has the 2-tone stripe from an 84 model. Some years I only drove it around town on the weekends (had another car) Clutch is still smooth and fine. Has not been tuned up in years, but still runs great with no misses. Original Spare tire, No radiator or coolant leaks that I know of (garage floor is dry, except for oil drip). Always a smoke-free driver. This Fiero also comes with a custom designed (for the Fiero) AEX digital instrument system (only 12 produced in the world), In addition to the normal engine gauge functionality, this dashboard can run simulations by itself (at car shows!) These are ment to attract attention to itself. There are 'wave' effects and simulated driving including what happens when the temp or tack or fuel dip too low or high. The dashboard has 3 driving 'Modes' (gauge views): 1) All bars and digits on, never go out, 2) Bargraphs only with speed digits, and 3) all dark except speedometer. Gauges will always automatically light up when things go array (like engine temp, low oil pressure, low fuel, over-tach) or just leave all Gauges on... The dashboard has 4 Resettable 'Trip' odometers (Fuel Fill, Business, Short Trip, Long Trip) Easilly viewable in the daylight, but REALLY, really cool looking at night... Originally, I saved this car for the kids. Now they are driving, they won’t learn (very well) the clutch. Oh well,. I’m done then. I'm done maintaining cars. I presently drive it to Pittsburgh weekly (or so) and am ready to move on. Besides I want the garage space. The auction/ car has no return, as-is and is honestly being described as best as I can. Local pick-up only. I don't know anything about shipping and don't want to. Just show-up, pay, do Bill-of-Sale and Transfer Title at the BMV during normal business hours and drive it home. My car is priced to sell, not priced high, avoiding lots of negotiation. Make a reasonable offer. Ebay is set to automatically accept reasonable offers. (No, it will not sell for 1,000) PLEASE ask any questions beforehand as I have tried to be as open as possible with everything. I can t think of everything. Thank You...Eric |

This 1988 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 pace car could be yours
Fri, Jan 29 2021Hopefully, the fans of GM's W-body '80s/'90s intermediates can forgive us, but we had pretty much forgotten — or had never really known — that one of the ways that era's Pontiac Grand Prix bathed itself in glory was by serving as the pace car for the Daytona 500. In fact, the Grand Prix paced NASCAR's marquee race every year from 1988 to 1992, and again in 1997, 1998, 2000 and 2003. That first year, 1988, the Grand Prix was all-new, making its debut on the W-body platform. It was also Motor Trend's car of the year. The 1988 Daytona 500 marked the 17th year in a row that a Pontiac was chosen to set the pace but the first time a front-wheel-drive car was so honored. The '88 Grand Prix followed a spate of Pontiac Trans Ams. This '88 Grand Prix, for sale right now on eBay Motors, is presented as an actual pace car, although fans could order a complete set of pace car decals for their very own GP. The pace car is based on that year's top-spec Grand Prix, the SE. In place of the standard car's 2.8-liter V6, however, the pace car uses a modified 3.1-liter V6, which is hooked to a five-speed manual transmission. This Grand Prix is otherwise largely standard fare excepting the roof-mounted light bar, the switches for which are located next to the radio. The mechanical odometer tucked into the digital instrument cluster shows just over 5,000 miles, and presumably, not all of them were acquired on the high-banked oval. With four days to go in the auction, bidding sits at $4,000 with the reserve unmet. Although the reserve is unknown, one clue is that this Grand Prix had been listed by a classic-car dealership in Pennsylvania for $18,500. Besides the debut of the W-body Grand Prix pace car, the 1988 race is also notable for its final lap: Bobby Allison held off his son, Davey Allison, to take the checkered flag, with the father-son duo enjoying a 1-2 finish. Now, who wants to re-live those Grand Prix glory days? Get on your Pontiac and ride!  This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
Junkyard Gem: 2001 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP
Tue, Jun 19 2018For General Motors, the W platform just kept giving and giving and giving for decade after decade, serving as the basis of Buick Regals, Oldsmobile Intrigues, Chevrolet Monte Carlos, and many, many more models. The final and most powerful Pontiac W-Body, the sixth-generation Grand Prix GTP, rolled off assembly lines for the 1997 through 2003 model years. Here's one in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. GM bolted the supercharged 3800 V6 into vast numbers of cars during this era, providing a deep reservoir of cheap blowers for unwise high-boost projects. 240 front-tire-charring horses, complete with a Roots-type blower scream from the Eaton supercharger under the hood. I see plenty of blown 3800s during my junkyard travels, from the Bonneville SSEi to the Oldsmobile LSS. Depressingly, GM stopped putting manual transmissions in the Grand Prix during the 1993 model year, so '01 GTP owners had to take the four-speed slushbox. This one came close to the magic 200,000-mile mark, but fell 25,000 short. The interior took a beating during its life, ending its time on the road with shredded upholstery and dirty panels. Seven-band graphic equalizers were all the rage during the 1980s, but GM kept the tradition alive into our current century. This content is hosted by a third party.

Michigan floods from breached dams consume Pontiac Fiero collection
Thu, May 21 2020“WeÂ’ve never had an event like this,” Michigan's city manager Brad Kaye said in a Detroit News story. "What we're looking at is an event that is the equivalent of a 500-year flood." Kaye is referencing the catastrophic flood that occurred in central Michigan this week after heavy rainfall was compounded by two breached dams on the Tittabawassee River. Reports say the flooding forced evacuation of up to 10,000 residents, swallowed entire towns, and destroyed thousands of properties. No casualties have been reported, according to the Detroit Free Press, but car enthusiasts will be sad to learn a Pontiac Fiero shop and collection called Forever Fieros was decimated by the natural disaster. The Tittabawassee River is located about two hours, or roughly 140 miles, north of Detroit. It starts 20-30 miles further north and flows southeast as a tributary to the Saginaw Bay Watershed. Along the way, the Tittabawassee is held up by several dams, including the Edenville dam that failed and the Sanford dam that was breached during torrential downpours. According to NPR, the federal government took away the Edenville dam's license in 2018 and suggested it could not last through a major flood. Unfortunately, that prediction was proven accurate. Forever Fieros is located in Sanford, Michigan, which is just below Sanford Lake, which is created by the Sanford dam. So when the Edenville dam north of Sanford broke, water from Wixom Lake flooded Sanford Lake, and a berm next to the Sanford dam was overwhelmed, according to MLive. Technically the dam did not fail, but the end result was the same: an entire town underwater. The Tittabawassee reportedly crested at 35 feet, or 10 feet above flood level and 1.1 feet higher than the previous record set in 1986. According to The Drive, the man in charge of Forever Fieros, Tim Evans, had time to attempt to save his vehicles from floodwater. He reportedly moved about 12 cars to a street that doesn't typically flood, but the water level was simply too high for that to matter. A floating pole barn also reportedly struck and damaged the Forever Fieros building. Worsening the situation is the fact that Evans was planning to hold an auction to sell many of the Fieros. As seen on Industrial Bid, he planned to sell 12 Fieros, Fiero GTs and a Fiero Formula, ranging from 1984 through 1988. The lots included a 1984 pace car, a Lamborghini Countach kit car, and a Fiero Cosworth Pontiac Super Duty 16-valve DOHC engine.
