I have had this car since December of 2011. Carfax shows only 2 previous owners. The original owner had it until 2005. I bought the car at 38,000 miles and it needed a lot of attention. It had original brakes, 2 original tires and rotted brake and trans lines. I bought it in Iowa and somehow drove it home. 2.8 V-6 Auto trans. I replaced the entire braking system with all new parts. Stainless brake and transmission lines from the Fiero store. New Calipers, rotors pads....all of it down to the master cylinder. The frame is in excellent condition and only had some surface rust. I coated all frame, wheel wells and suspension parts with Chassis Saver and it looks new.
The engine also needed some attention. Nobody had ever changed the spark plugs so in the process of attempting to remove them 2 snapped off in the head. I brought the car to a local shop where the entire top end of the motor was disassembled right down to the block. The heads were sent to a machine shop and new valve guides were installed as part of the reconditioning process. Everything was re-installed with new gaskets, plugs, wires, belts, thermostat and every hose on the car. The next issue was the A/C which would operate if charged but would leak pretty quick. It was determined that the compressor was shot so it was replaced and works perfect now. Headlight motors were both replaced in 2010.
Interior is immaculate. It's what you would expect to see with this mileage. I had the original radio replaced with new internals. The right channel was not working. also replaced the front speakers and have the rears but they are not installed. The headliner was replaced around 2005.
Car was repainted in June of 2012. All panels on this car are original with VIN #'s on them. I have the formula door decals they just haven't been installed.
It drives just as good as it would have in 1988. Steering wheel is perfectly straight and transmission shifts excellent. I drove it 200 miles a few weekends ago.
CALL 847.875.7153 Scott if you have any questions. I have a lot of pictures throughout the entire process if you need to see any specific area let me know.

Watch this garbage truck consume a Pontiac Grand Am
Wed, 15 May 2013When an old car or truck offers its dying breath in your driveway and you just don't have the financial or mechanical wherewithal to resuscitate it yet again, you traditionally have to go to the trouble of calling a flatbed or a tow truck to come haul it away. That usually helps to put a few bucks in your wallet and helps recycle some of the vehicle's parts, but the transaction doesn't seem as final or perversely satisfying as the dispatch service that this New Way Cobra Magnum garbage truck offers.
Okay, okay, so this refuse hauler isn't actually designed for this sort of thing, but it's oddly comforting to know that a sanitation truck can compact a hapless Pontiac Grand Am into oblivion. Next time, we won't feel so guilty about slipping that rusty charcoal grille onto the curb next to the cans on garbage day. Watch the carnage by scrolling below.
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
