1984 Pontiac Fiero Like Ferrari 308gtb Mera Stinger Style Kit Car Rust Free Az on 2040-cars
1984 Fiero Kit Kar / Ferrari 308GTB Up for auction: as you'll see in the pics its an unfinished project with endless possibilities for the next owner. Starting life as a nice rust free Fiero, body panels started coming off while new fiberglass pieces started going back on. This kit did come out of Canada, originally we thought it was a Stinger or Mera kit but after doing more research turns out not to be either. Nevertheless its still one of the nicer conversions Ive seen. Have a Ferrari 308 style car at a fraction of the price with our super low reserve. Make it even better with possibly a better more reliable and better power plant in the back. V8 conversions on these cars now a days are much more simple and less costly too. Car comes with a box or OE Parts taken off and another box of fiberglass parts yet to be installed. DRIVETRAIN: The motor is a stock Fiero 2.4L 4 cyl matted to the stock 4 spd. It ran when parked but when I tried to crank it over recently, theres no power getting to the starter so could need an ignition switch or possibly just a wire off or cut somewhere. Motor spins over by hand. No promises on its condition. The exhaust was already done to mimic the Ferrari look. Lots of people put Northstar V8s in these cars and there are plenty of conversion kits on the market to help you with the job. Also, there are lots of donar cars out there now available whether you want to go LT1, LS1 or Caddy aluminum V8 All which are 300+ HP easily. INTERIOR: is showing its age from sitting in the Az sun for many yrs. Mostly complete, but Im sure it will need restoration during the completion of the project. Factory GM large sunroof car too. Door panels are gone, this was a factory AC car making it nicer for the build. SUSPENSION: All stock Fiero components, last owner had cut the stock springs for a small drop. The rims are a focal point, they are custom 15" Cheviot rims made in Australia, and have a nice Ferrari OE look to them. Tires are old BFGs. BODY: Fiberglass Ferrari body kit has been partially installed onto what looks to have been a great original Fiero body with no signs of accidents or rust ever. The project was started back in the 80s and left unfinished sometime in the 90s where it sat here in Az. You can see on the back hatch area where someone damaged the hatch area trying to open it. Ferrari style door handles already installed and work well. EMAIL WITH ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE THE PICS BELOW SPEAK VOLUMES but Im sure I may of overlooked some stuff.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?
Fri, May 27 2016When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

1939 Pontiac Ghost Car commands $308,000 at auction
Mon, 01 Aug 2011For the 1939 World's Fair, Pontiac built a Deluxe Six bodied in Plexiglass. Part of the Previews of Progress pavilion in which General Motors' Futurama showed off what was to come in the world of autos, the 'invisible' Pontiac is credited as the first transparent car in America. And there were no shortcuts taken with its body: the Plexiglass form was fabricated by the company that brought the material to market in 1933, Rohm & Haas.
The see-through sedan was sold at RM Auctions' St. John's auction in Michigan on July 30, fetching $308,000. Not bad appreciation for a domestic oddity that cost $25,000 to build when new. You can check out the high-res gallery of its innards, including copper and chrome metalwork and white moldings and wheels, and get the exhaustive details on it after the jump.
Baseball team to dress like Trans Am, complete with screaming chicken
Fri, Feb 8 2019Come to think of it, the Screaming Chicken actually sounds like the name of a minor league baseball team. Well, it isn't, but the famous logo of the same name that graced the hood of the 1970s Pontiac Trans Am will at least be making it to a baseball uniform this summer. The Lansing Lugnuts, a Single-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays, will be rocking these special uniforms to honor the late Burt Reynolds and his film Smokey and the Bandit. By default, it will also be honoring the car the movie made famous: the 1977 Trans Am painted black with gold trim and, of course, the screaming chicken on the hood. This is a pretty good history of the emblem. So why the Lugnuts and Burt Reynolds? Although he claimed to be born in Georgia for much of his career, he admitted in a 2015 autobiography that he was in fact born in Lansing, Mich. After a few years, his family settled in Florida. Not exactly hometown hero stuff, but minor league baseball promotions have been made of more tenuous connections. The Burt Reynolds tribute night will be July 20, and if you want to get a screaming chicken jersey for yourself (I mean, wouldn't they be perfect for a cars and coffee?), the game-used jerseys will be auctioned off for charity after the game.
