For the rest of the story, the car is all there the only thing not there is the rear bumper reinforcement and the red lights in it. Everything on this car works the horn, turn signals 4 ways head lights interior lights door jamb switches dash lights oil pressure gauge temp and gas gauge volt meter it charges with the original alternator. I believe it to be the original 36,000 miles just from the originality of the car and all the parts on it . Had the original plugs in it I kept them the original wires are still on it and the car is pretty clean for the year the steel brake and gas lines are original and look like the day it was new, all the rubber lines are good no dry rot the trunk seal is still soft hence the clean trunk, and all the wiring  is as flexable as the day it was new and un cut. the seats are soft as new a little discoloring is all the dash is perfect no cracks and soft,the headliner is good also it so amazing the stuff on this car it just amazes me. the carpet is dry rotted the shifter cable was broke I found a new  one in the car old but still in the original GM bag, at some point someone put a 8 track in it, the dash is not cut up I have the original radio. The trim rings on the wheels are perfect I dropped the gas tank it had the original rubber lines from the tank tothe steel lines  I replaced them, and another surprise I found the build sheet. I drained the tank and from the pictures you can see it was clean as a pin inside I took a pic of the trunk floor above the tank look how clean that is, the exhaust is even good might want to change the mufflers though it has the 80s cherry bomb glass packs on it witch are still redish  looking. I had the car P.H.S documented I have that. The car was sold here in Mayfield Hts. Ohio on the east side that is where I bought it from was the east side not far from where it was sold new the front floor pans look perfect also.The window trim is all there and very nice as the original wheel well openings and they fit the body perfect the fisher door sill plates are there also very nice, the quarters are solid the right one in front of the tire has a little rust the fenders are clean as is the trunk lid and the trunk is mint the doors look solid also the inside lip is as clean as new. I HAVE A TON MORE PICS I CAN SEND ON REQUEST  i could only get 24 on here they are not enough to see the car good . THE REAR SPOILER IS NOT CRACKED LIKE MOST OF THEM EITHER.

That was the good now for the bad the car had not been titled in over 25 years so there is no title or record on file with the state I have a bill of sale from a licensed dealer for it so getting  a title should not be hard. the guy I got it from pulled the rear quarter windows and let it sit with them out I have the windows  so the rear floor pans are rusted but the rest of the floor is nice I found rear pans at Goodmark. The guy started grinding on the car and sprayed whit paint on it to stop rust I quess who  knows not head. the right rear quarter had been damaged by the tail light at some point and fixed but the damage doesn't look that bad just wasn't fixed right the lacquer paint is cracked and peeling,windsheild is cracked all the other glass is good.

The car is very solid and all original nice car to restore like I said all the date codes on the  block  distributor, carb , intake water pump all are correct it says 400 on the left side of the block but I cannot find the engine numbers the transmission tag is correct dated also.

I know I am leaving a lot out about this amazing survivor . there is a reserve and I will not take less for it . Thanks any questions call Tony 440-503-0929

The last Pontiac Fiero sold for $90,000 at auction

Thu, Dec 3 2020

On August 16, 1988 the last Pontiac Fiero, a red GT model, rolled off the assembly line at GM's Pontiac Assembly plant located in Pontiac, Michigan. It wasn't just the final Fiero, but the final car to be built at that site. The car was raffled off to one of 1,400 plant employees that would soon have to find jobs elsewhere. Whoever that employee was, they remained faithful to the Fiero and kept it in mint condition for 32 years. Last month, it was finally time to move on. It crossed the block at GAA Auctions in Greensboro, North Carolina where it sold for an astounding $90,000. According to the auction house, that's a new world record. The price no doubt reflected the car's place in history as the last example of GM's 1980s mid-engined sports car. However, it was also showroom-new, with just 582 miles clocked on its 2.8-liter V6. 1988 models were also fitted with an upgraded, Lotus-esque suspension produced for just that one year. In addition, this car, serial number 226402, came with its original build sheet, photos from the assembly line, and a collection of news articles and books. It still wore its pre-delivery plastic on the interior and was fully loaded with automatic transmission. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The car's custodian for the past 32 years must be pleased. Bidding started at $25,000 but soon rocketed past the $65,000 reserve. You can see the action starting at the 2:50:13 mark in the video above. The Fiero was symbolic of the 1980s and stood out from the standard GM passenger car fare for its mid-engine layout and plastic body panels. In an era when GM often rebadged cars with minimal differences, the Fiero rode on its own unique chassis. It was positioned as one of the defining products for Pontiac, GM's "excitement" brand, but actual performance never quite lived up to its striking looks.  Nevertheless, it garnered a cult following. It's often the basis for (questionable) custom builds mimicking more exotic models like Ferraris and Lamborghinis, thanks to a steel space-frame design that allows body panels to be easily removed. Thankfully, this significant example escaped such a fate and will live on as a reminder of an interesting chapter of automotive history.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative

Tue, 29 Oct 2013

How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
