 1986 Pontiac Fiero SE with approximately 70,000 miles, northwest owned and nearly always garaged. 2m6 (2.8L Six w/ 4-speed manual).

Very clean inside and out, no tears, no dents, just minor aging.  One sail panel is cracked, I have a replacement in box. 

Factory options include GT wing, GT gauges (oil pressure, volts), Cruise, AM/FM/Cassette w/ subwoofer (cone is torn), AC (still works), remote trunk release, delay wipers, tilt wheel.  Manual windows and locks.  Both headlights work. Upgrades include K&N air filter and high-output headlights. Cat replaced 3 years ago.  Temp gauge wiring mod applied- gauge no longer 'pegs' when switched on, and dash overtemp light works.  Transmission shifts easy, synchros work fine, and clutch works fine.  Factory maintenance and service manuals included, cover included (has a couple small holes), new brake pins & pads included.

Now the bad news- leaks a little oil at the axle seals, and exhaust manifold may have a small crack. Windshield has a crack extending across about 50% of it.
I just don't have the time, money, and room to keep it and tinker with it the way I'd like. 

Fun and fast, it's an absolute joy to drive-- you're connected to the road with all your senses, driving a sports car the way they were intended to be driven.  Super road feel at the wheel, lively response to the gas, and no ABS, no power steering, and no traction control taking away your fun.  It'll understeer until it decides to oversteer, it'll spin up the tires, and it'll put a huge smile on your face.  If you've never owned a Fiero you ought to try it!  Bonus: Washington State emission test no longer required for cars this old.

Terms: Pick up only, in the greater Seattle area.  Cash preferred.  Cashier's check ok but buyer must allow time for check to clear.  Car has current tabs and may be driven away.   Paypal deposit w/in 48 hours will hold the car for one week from date of deposit.

Hurst Edition Trans Am proves the Screaming Chicken will rise from the ashes

Wed, 31 Oct 2012

It seems the Pontiac Trans Am steadfastly refuses to die. Ever since Chevrolet was granted a retrofied Camaro to compete with the Ford Mustang, Pontiac lovers have lamented the loss of this 1970s icon. And, looking at the Hurst Edition from Trans Am Depot, shown here at the 2012 SEMA Show, may explain what all the fuss is about.
It's not going to appeal to everyone's muscle-car tastes, but there's certainly room for a brash-and-bold black-and-gold Special Edition in many a Trans Am lover's garage. After all, if you want the keys to a custom pony car, you'll certainly get noticed in this one. If this scheme isn't your bag,, you can alternatively order your Hurst Edition in white and gold or silver and black. Oh, and don't forget a color-coordinated Screaming Chicken on the hood.
No matter which way you choose to go, your inner Burt Reynolds will appreciate the Eibach suspension kit, forged wheels with Pirelli PZero tires, functional shaker hood, fender air extractors, rear spoiler and, of course, a Hurst shifter inside. The interior is emblazoned with all manner of special touches, including a Hurst dash plate and T/A stitching on the Katzkin two-tone leather seats.

Burt Reynolds' personal 1977 Trans-Am from Smokey And The Bandit for sale

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Smokey and the Bandit is one of those quintessential 1970s car movies with insane premises but tons of fun. After all, the basic plot of the film is about distracting the police to transport cases of Coors beer cross country. While Burt Reynolds receives top billing, the real star is definitely his black Pontiac Trans-Am. Now, there's a chance to posses one of these muscle machines actually owned by Reynolds, and it's already proving quite popular. The car is a '77 Trans-Am with the famous, gold screaming chicken proudly on the hood. However, while this is a piece of Reynolds memorabilia, it's not really part of cinematic history. According to the listing, this example was used as a promotional vehicle and then given to Reynolds with a title showing him as a previous owner for proof. Still, there's 400-cubic-inch (6.55-liter) V8 under the hood with a 4-barrel carburetor and an automatic transmission. A plaque inside the driver's door proclaims the car as a "1977 Pontiac Trans Am Owned By Burt Reynolds," and there's a Bandit logo on the door. This is just one lot of Julien Auction's sale of Reynolds memorabilia on December 11 and 12 at The Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, NV. Bidding is already running online, and the Trans-Am is up to $130,000, as of this writing. For the true Reynolds fanatic, the auction also lists the motorized stagecoach from his wedding to Loni Anderson. It rides built on an International Harvester Scout frame with an interior reportedly from Dolly Parton.
