1985 Pontiac Fiero GT - loaded

 

Street Survivor for sale

 

I bought this car last fall, and have enjoyed it tremendously (I had a Red/tan 2M4 in college but always wanted a GT).  Draws a crowd, and the kids love it.  Fantastic way to drive to work at low cost -  and a lot of fun!

 

It has 49,900 miles ( I bought it with just over 40K).

 

Completely loaded:

·      2.8L V6 Engine

·      4 Speed Manual Transmission (seriously who wants an auto?)

·      A/C (with brand new compressor)

·      Tilt, cruise (works perfectly), intermittent wipers

·      Power door windows and locks, mirrors, headlamp doors - all work properly

·      Firebird CD stereo has replaced the old cassette deck and has EQ and iPod input!!!! VERY RARE!!!!  Same Pontiac orange backlighting - seamless OEM look.  CD and iPod in a Fiero without ruining vintage look!

·      New Pioneer 4x10 speakers, plus stock in headrest.  Killer sound.

·      Rare cassette storage option

·      New moonroof and door window gaskets

·      Replaced heater core, washer motor, brakes (new slotted and drilled rotors, new low dust pads, rebuilt master cylinder, one worn caliper rebuilt)

·      OEM wheels and tires for the purists (more than 60% tread)

·      The best steering wheel, the padded GT 3 spoke

 

I bought it for $5000, and have put about $1500 of parts into it.  So my BIN is a very reasonable $5950 and the reserve is set at $5600.  Will not accept lowball offers.  I will just continue to enjoy the ride :) if I can't get a reasonable price.

 

The very good

·      Non smoker interior is nearly mint

·      Great stereo set up with stock look

·      Super low miles

·      A lot of needed repairs done for you already

·      Everything works - even the headlamp motors which is a common issue

·      A fill up is 8 gallons (holds 10) and will take you 225 miles, which is 28 MPG.

·      I get over 25 even combined in town, with sports car performance.

·      In VA, I have often filled up for a weeks worth of driving for just over $20.  Not many $6000 cars YOU WANT TO DRIVE can do that.

 

 

The not so good

·      The plastic panels have excellent paint, but the steel engine lid paint is beginning to look tired, with some oxidizing and orange peel.  I plan to repaint if I keep it over the winter.  Lower aero panels have some rubbed areas (damaged before me but not noticeable except up close) that could be redone as well.

·      The hydraulic clutch is getting a little tired.  If you hold the clutch in a long time (like at a long stop light) you notice it begin to engage.  Not a problem in normal driving but a rebuilt clutch master and slave (about $80 each plus time) would do the trick.  I just don't leave the clutch down for more than about 15 seconds and no problems....

·      The headliner is looking tough, ditto on my desire to replace over winter.  I may have it done before sale.....but no promises.

·      Two areas of interior dash paint could use a touch up (base brown beginning to show over the light brown paint.  This is a two tone piece that is intended to have the base brown in some areas that are accented by areas painted by light - easy touch up with correct paint).

 

Great value at a great price.  Selling to buy a tractor (I know I know - should probably keep her but Mrs says she's gotta go first!)

$200 deposit required within 48 hours - non-refundable.  Come drive it and if you don't want it that is all it will cost you to walk away, with positive feedback.  Balance due in 7 days or at delivery whichever comes first.  IF not picked up in 7 days it will be relisted and resold, but if you need time to pick it up that can be arranged with full payment. 

Call 434 five nine won for five three wun ask for Gene with questions.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

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.

David Hasselhoff's own KITT replica up for auction

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

Depending on when and where you grew up, the name David Hasselhoff likely conjures up images of Knight Rider, Baywatch, pop singer, or possibly a washed-up TV actor, but one thing that can never be taken away from The Hoff is his connection to one of the greatest automotive icons in pop culture. The Knight Industries Two Thousand, usually shortened to simply KITT, was the real star of Knight Rider for many fans. Based on a Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, the car combined snarky quips for comedy relief and stunts to provide much of the show's actions. Now, Julien's Auctions is selling Hasselhoff's own replica as part of a larger sale of the actor's personal memorabilia collection.
This recreation is based on a 1986 Firebird and comes with all of the tech on the inside that now seems hilariously outdated, like the yoke steering wheel and plethora of buttons. The interior also thoughtfully includes a voice box with over 4,000 sound clips from the show. With a 5.0-liter V8 and an automatic transmission, performance is likely adequate and period correct. According to the listing, this car was created by fans and given to the Hoff. Sadly, the replica doesn't convert to Super Pursuit Mode like KITT could in later seasons, and we most associate KITT with conventional front-hinged doors to go with the power t-tops and ejector seats.
Bidding currently sits $27,500 with eight bids, since starting at $15,000. Julien's predicts it will sell for between $30,000 and $50,000. If there is some nostalgia for KITT in your heart, there is still plenty of time to bid.
