 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.

This GTO-El Camino mashup is the muscle truck of our dreams

Fri, Aug 31 2018

There were a hell of a lot of great muscle cars in the mid-1960s, from the baroque Dodges and Plymouths of the earlier part of the decade to the wild big boys like the Boss 429 and Olds 442 W30. Right in the middle of the decade, two of the most iconic of the bunch emerged — the Pontiac GTO and second-generation Chevy El Camino. And this one is a 1964 Chevy El Camino with the heart and face of its GTO cousin, and dubbed the El Chieftain GTO. It's currently for sale at RM Sotheby's Auburn auction, with no reserve status or estimate listed. This looks like a product that Pontiac could have sold at the time — its builder, Ron Lindeman, did an excellent job making it look like a factory product, right down to the taillight strakes inspired by the GTO. It's powered by a 389 — a Pontiac motor that was actually found in period GTOs, but sporting a single four-barrel instead of the sexy Tri-Power setup. It is, however, equipped with a Hurst four-speed manual and the grille badge to prove it to bystanders. Even the interior is made up to look like a GTO. We wish there was more of a description of the build in the listing, but if you love it, do us one better and buy the thing and invite us to poke around it. We are very much in love with this muscle-truck mashup.

Woodward Dream Cruise Photo Gallery | Classics and American muscle

Sun, Aug 21 2022

The 2022 running of the Woodward Dream Cruise just went down, and we were there from morning to evening drinking in the sweet sights and pre-emissions exhaust fumes. Yes, it’s a little smelly on Woodward Ave. this time of year. Just like always, the Dream Cruise invites all comers to cruise their machines on Woodward from Ferndale, MI to Pontiac, MI. Everybody is invited, but the original intent of the Dream Cruise was to highlight classic American muscle cars. YouÂ’ll see plenty of those in our mega gallery above, but weÂ’ve sprinkled it with a bunch of other vehicle types, such as modern muscle and other intriguing American vehicles. Similar to years past, though, sometimes the classics arenÂ’t the most entertaining thing to look at on Woodward. ThatÂ’s why weÂ’ll have other mega galleries coming soon, highlighting the weird cars and (great) dogs of the Cruise, all the imports and exotics you can imagine and a special one for all the trucks of Woodward — perhaps even more so than in years past, the truck population on Dream Cruise day was quite high. Click through above to see all the classics you wouldÂ’ve seen had you been roadside on the day of the cruise. And if you missed this yearÂ’s event, make sure you check out what happens next year. You wonÂ’t be alone, as itÂ’s estimated that over 1 million people attend the Dream Cruise to either watch from the side of the road or to sit in the most glorious traffic jam in the world.

General Lee takes on Bandit T/A in classic Hollywood car showdown [w/poll]

Fri, 26 Aug 2011

You don't have to be born in the 1960s or 1970s to be able to recognize the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard and the Pontiac Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit. These old school four-wheeled stars seem to transcend demographics thanks to the miles of film that show the orange 1969 Dodge Charger and the jet-black 1977 Pontiac Trans Am performing seemingly impossible stunts.
The folks at Hot Rod magazine are obviously hip to this fact, and they put together a fun video in tribute of the instantly recognizable duo. Hit the jump to watch on as Sam Young and James Smith replace Bo Duke and The Bandit for a bit of dirt-road shenanigans in a pair of otherwise well cared for classics. We're not so sure we'd call it the best chase scene ever, but it sure looks like a lot of fun.
More importantly, which of these two cars would you rather own? Have your say in our poll below.
