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. Check out over 125 pics below, be patient it may take a minute or 2 for them to all load. Low reasonable Reserve Bid Early and bid smart so you dont lose out !!

Junkyard Gem: 1986 Pontiac Sunbird Sedan
Sun, Jun 28 2020The J-Body platform was a giant seller for GM, staying in production from the first 1981 Chevrolet Cavalier all the way through that final 2005 Pontiac Sunfire. Outside of North America, Opels and Daewoos and Isuzus and Holdens and Vauxhalls and even Toyotas flew the J flag, and better than ten million rolled out of showrooms during that quarter-century. In the United States, Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, Pontiac, Buick, and Cadillac each sold J-Bodies. Of those, the Pontiac Sunbird often had the sportiest image, more cavalier than even the Cavalier Z24. I've documented a discarded Sunbird Turbo in the past, and now here's a bread-and-butter Sunbird sedan from the same era. The Sunbird name began its life in 1976 on the Pontiac-badged version of the rear-wheel-drive Buick Skyhawk, itself based on the Chevy Vega. The first J-Body Pontiacs had J2000 badges, then 2000 badges, then 2000 Sunbird badges, until finally the pure non-2000 Sunbird appeared for the 1985 model year. I remain disappointed that the 2000 name didn't survive into our current century, because we could have had a 2000 Pontiac 2000, or just the "2000 2000" for short. The base engine in the '86 Sunbird was this SOHC 1.8-liter four of Brazilian origin, rated at 84 horsepower. Originally developed by Opel in the late 1970s, this engine family went into cars built all across the sprawling GM empire. 84 horsepower doesn't sound like much— and it wasn't much, even by 1986 standards— but at least the original buyer of this car had the smarts to get the five-speed manual transmission. This car weighed just 2,336 pounds, a good 500 pounds lighter than the current Chevy Sonic, so performance with the manual transmission was tolerable. The '86 Sunbird's interior was much nicer than those in its Cavalier siblings, though nowhere near the Cadillac Cimarron's reading on the Plush-O-Meter. An AM/FM/cassette stereo with auto reverse was serious audio hardware in a cheap car during the middle 1980s, when even a scratchy factory AM-only radio cost the equivalent of several hundred 2020 bucks. The price tag of this car started at $7,495, or about $17,500 in 2020 dollars. The cheapest possible Cavalier sedan went for $6,888 in 1986, but a zero-option base '86 Cavalier would make you think you'd been transported to the Soviet Union every time you slunk into its harsh confines.

Junkyard Gem: 2010 Pontiac G6
Sat, Sep 12 2020What makes a discarded car a gem? Sometimes it's a car we all agree is very cool, and other times it's a car that tells us something about automotive history. Today's Junkyard Gem is the latter type: one of the very last Pontiacs sold, before The General shut out the lights forever on the storied marque after 84 years. The G6 was Pontiac's Epsilon-platform-based car, sibling to the Chevy Malibu, Saturn Aura, and Saab 9-3 (plus a bunch of Europe-only machinery). The very last Pontiac ever built was a white 2010 G6 sedan like this one (all '10 G6s were sedans, the coupe and convertible having been nixed in 2009), though that car was built in January of 2010 and this one came off the line in July of 2009. They build Bolts at the Orion Assembly plant these days. The higher-zoot G6s came with V6s or even V8s, but this car has "fleet machine" written all over it and has the base 2.4-liter Ecotec four-banger making 164 horsepower. Pontiac shoppers in the United States could buy the Vibe as a 2010 model as well, while Mexican Pontiac dealerships also sold new G2s (known as the Spark here) that year. The G6 was The Final Pontiac, though, bookending a run that began with the 1926 Pontiac Six. This one will go to its grave with the original owner's manual still inside. Even the cheapest 2010 G6s came with an AUX jack for the radio, a feature that was still maddeningly hard to find in rental cars a decade ago. This content is hosted by a third party.

Junkyard Gem: 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition
Tue, Aug 29 2017The W Platform proved to be extremely long-lived and versatile for General Motors, remaining in production from 1988 all the way through 2016. You had your Impalas and your Regals and your Cutlass Supremes, and of course the 1988-2008 Pontiac Grand Prix was a W-body. For the 2000 model year, Pontiac made the racy-looking Daytona 500 Edition Grand Prix, an example of which I just found in a Northern California self-service wrecking yard. 2,000 of these cars were made, presumably because it was the year 2000, and each one sports plenty of cool-looking Daytona 500 graphics. Perhaps some Regal owner will buy these seats and swap them. This is the second junked Daytona 500 Grand Prix I have seen recently, after this one in Colorado. The Daytona 500 was about the same as the GTP version, with Eaton-supercharged 3800 engine making a respectable 240 horsepower. Disappointingly, this car has an automatic transmission. It never saw 150,000 miles, unlike most 21st-century W-bodies I see in wrecking yards. Featured Gallery Junked 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix Daytona 500 Edition View 21 Photos Auto News Pontiac Sedan
