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! |

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.
GM reintroduces Tripower name in the worst way possible
Wed, Aug 1 2018The story of General Motors' use of the Tripower moniker begins way back in 1957, when Semon E. "Bunkie" Knudsen, then General Manager of GM's Pontiac division, directed his engineers to inject more performance into his brand's line of V8-powered automobiles. Fuel injection was an option, but hot rodders flocked instead to Tri-Power (marketed way back when with a hyphen), which grafted a trio of two-barrel Rochester carburetors onto a single intake manifold. A legend was born. And that legend was born of performance. At idle and when full power wasn't required, Pontiac's Tri-Power system used just the middle carburetor, which helped make the setup easier to tune. Depending on the year and model, either a vacuum system or a mechanical linkage opened up the two outer carbs, thereby switching from two barrels to six, and allowing the engine to take in more fuel and air. And it was an easy marketing win – six barrels is better than four barrels, right? Because performance! So, when news filtered in that GM has resurrected the Tripower name, those of us who grew up attending classic car shows and wrenching on old Pontiacs did a double-take. And then we all collectively sighed. Turns out that today's Tripower refers to a trio of fuel-saving measures that include cylinder deactivation, active thermal management, and intake valve lift control, according to Automotive News. And, at least for now, it applies to GM's line of fullsize trucks powered by a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. We're all for saving fuel whenever possible. And we have zero say in how any automaker chooses to market its products and technologies. But, we'll offer our two cents anyway: Relaunching a storied name from the past is fine. Relaunching a storied name from the past while completely overlooking the reasons the name got famous in the first place is only going to irritate the people who remember the name in the first place. Couldn't they just call this new technology package something else?

Junkyard Gem: 2006 Pontiac Solstice
Wed, Sep 4 2019The debut of the Pontiac Solstice, back in 2005 for the 2006 model year, stirred up much excitement in the automotive world. Sales were brisk at first, and then they weren't so great… and then Pontiac itself went under The General's cost-cutting axe. One thing I have learned during my junkyard travels is that even sought-after sports cars eventually reach a point at which they start showing up in the big self-service junkyards. For example, the BMW Z3 began appearing in such yards about five years ago, along with the Audi TT. While the Honda S2000 still appears to be exempt from this process, today's Junkyard Gem shows that the time has now come for the Pontiac Solstice/Saturn Sky. The first Z3s and TTs I saw in the U-Wrench-type yards were crash victims, not worth fixing, and that's the case with this Solstice. In a few more years, I'll start seeing the occasional Solstice/Sky discarded due to general worn-outness. Someone grabbed all the undented front body parts and the transmission (these items, presumably, being valuable), but no junkyard shoppers have felt like pulling the non-turbo 2.0-liter Ecotec. The interior seems dirty, probably from exposure to the elements while sitting outdoors in this Colorado Springs wrecking yard, but not in bad shape otherwise. Perhaps the car's owner celebrated a return from Iraq with the purchase of a sporty new Pontiac, 13 years ago. These cars have an enthusiastic following, so I wasn't expecting to see a junked one so soon after production ceased. I felt the same way about the Chrysler Crossfire, however, and I found two of those last year. What's next, a 2002-2005 Thunderbird? This content is hosted by a third party.
