MINT CONDITION, near original 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT with 69,400 on the odometer. Third owner was my Dad, who gave it to me a few years back, always owned and operated by an adult, non-smoking owners, babied and well cared for its entire 26 year life. My Dad is an auto enthusiast and spent countless hours cleaning, detailing, and polishing this car. Original paint, immaculate interior, original motor & transmission…original fun! Heck, even the original “donut” spare tire is up front under the hood; never used.

Equipped with: 2.8 liter V-6, 5 speed manual transmission, air conditioning, power windows, power mirrors, cruise control, tilt steering wheel, original rear wing on trunk lid (rare), factory removable glass sunroof with original NEVER USED sunshade insert (complete with vinyl storage bag under the hood). Custom matching floor mats with “Fiero” embroidered on them.

Maintenance: New front end ball joints and shocks installed 05/2002; new tires installed shortly afterwards 02/2003. The front windshield was showing signs of deterioration and was replaced on 04/2013. New NAPA battery on 07/2013. Since the car is a “fun-time only” vehicle and is never driven in bad weather, it has occasions when it sits for a while, so to prevent the battery from going dead a trickle charger is used; the charger’s leads are incorporated into the battery cables and the charger can be plugged in or unplugged in seconds. Trickle charger included with car.

Modifications: The original seats were replaced by a previous owner with the ones you see, came out of a ’87 GT. Same material, same color as the rest of the interior. Brand new iPod connectable Kenwood stereo system with remote control (still in the bag), and new Kenwood speakers installed by Car Toys in 2013. At that time, power door locks were installed as well. I still have the original factory radio/cassette player and speakers in a box, and will include them to the purchaser if they should wish to convert the car back to original. No other modifications or changes made to this car.

Defects: Very small surface scratches in the paint on the front nose of the car, probably incurred by using vinyl nose bra (included), mostly unnoticeable from 5 feet away. The worst one is shown in a picture, but you still have to look hard and close to see it’s there. Similarly, the rear wing has a couple slight scratches in the clear coat; I can’t even get them to show up on the camera. A good buffing would most likely take those right out. Otherwise, the paint is fantastic for being 26 years old, a testament to good wax and lots of elbow grease! There is also a crack in the driver’s side plastic seatbelt cover. I have a NIB replacement, but never got around to putting it on as it requires removal of the seat to access. The crack is hardly noticeable and has no effect on the functionality, but I am including the part so you can change it if you have the desire to.

Other than that, there is nothing wrong with this car. It starts right up every time, even after sitting for a month or so; the A/C works and is cold; the headlights flip up and down perfectly; sounds great going down the road (ie, no “funny” noises); the interior is mint with no tears, rips, or stains; new stereo sounds awesome no matter what you play through it; never been in an accident, always garaged, owned and cared for by people who appreciate classic cars and know how to preserve them. In short: you will not be disappointed. Don’t let this one slip away!

Legal: $500 deposit is required to be made into my PayPal account within 48 hours (two days) of auction close. Final payment of remaining balance may be made by your choice of cash, PayPal transfer, or cashier’s check ONLY. Car title will not be released until full payment has been made and has cleared the bank. Once the $500 deposit has been made, you have two weeks (14 days) to come collect the car; car is located in Tualatin, Oregon (25 miles SW of Portland). If you wish to have the car delivered, all arrangements and payment for such must be made by the PURCHASER. I will work with you as best I can, and delivering the car to a Portland or Vancouver, WA-based pick up location is do-able. HOWEVER, and please note, I will not allow the car to be shipped UNTIL final payment has been made and cleared. Once I receive the final payment, I will send the title and a bill of sale via FedEx Next Day delivery.

Please ask ANY and all questions, especially if you are unsure on anything or need further clarification. Due to my odd work schedule, I am not usually able to be reached by phone, but I check my e-mail daily and can usually answer your questions within 24 hours of being asked. Thanks for looking.

Question of the Day: Most degraded car name?

Fri, May 27 2016

When Ford came up with a not-so-sporty version of the Pinto and slapped Mustang badges on it in 1974, that was a low point for the Mustang name. When Chrysler applied the venerable Town & Country name on perfectly functional but unglamorous minivans, it saddened many of us. But perhaps the biggest demotion for a once-proud model came when, in 1988, General Motors imported a misery-enhancing Daewoo from Korea and called it the Pontiac LeMans. The original Pontiac LeMans was a great-looking midsize car with fairly advanced (for the time) suspension design and engine options including potent V8s and a screaming overhead-cam straight-six. The Daewoo-based Pontiac LeMans was a cramped, shoddy hooptie that served only to ruin the LeMans name forever, while stealing sales from the Suzuki-based Chevrolet Sprint. Sure, using the once-respected Monterey name on the Mercurized Ford Freestar was bad, but Mercury didn't have long to live at that point. I say the downward spiral of the LeMans name was the most agonizing in automotive history. What do you think? Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Another Burt Reynolds Trans Am is up for auction

Wed, Jan 18 2017

Fans of Smokey and the Bandit, your car has arrived. This Saturday, January 21, Barrett-Jackson will auction a 1977 Pontiac Trans Am clone that, while not originally in the movie, was owned and signed by the Bandit himself, Burt Reynolds. Not only that, but it packs many modifications that should make this Pontiac drive the way we all imagined it did. This is a Trans Am clone, not an original. The car was built by Nebraska company Restore A Muscle Car, and started life as a lowly Firebird Formula. However, the company brought it up to Trans Am grade and beyond. Under the hood is a fuel-injected 8.2-liter V8 from Butler Performance that Restore A Muscle Car says produces 600 horsepower. Coupled to the big V8 is a Tremec five-speed manual transmission. There's even Hurst line-lock on-board, so this Trans Am should be perfect for on-demand burnouts. The car also comes with QA1 coil-over suspension, so it should corner better than the original, too. The outside looks roughly like a stock Trans Am, but it now has 18-inch wheels styled after those from the movie car, and the shaker scoop says "8.2" on each side. View 5 Photos In 2014, a 1977 Trans Am owned by Reynolds sold for a whopping $450,000. That car wasn't an actual movie car either, and lacked the modifications of this one. However, it was used as a promotional car and was given to Reynolds, so it did have some history with the film. This upgraded car is listed in the Barrett-Jackson catalog as "no reserve," so it's going home with a new owner on Saturday, regardless of price. Related Video:

Burt Reynolds' movie re-creations fetch $379,500 in Vegas

Wed, Oct 3 2018

The recent death of Hollywood legend and automotive enthusiast Burt Reynolds helped drive up the value of four of his former cars from the 1970s and '80s, which sold last weekend at Barrett-Jackson's Las Vegas auction for a combined $379,500. Reynolds, who died Sept. 6 at age 82, had offered three Pontiac Trans Ams — two of them re-creations of the cars he drove in "Smokey and the Bandit" and "Hooper" and the third from 1984 used to promote his United States Football League team, the Tampa Bay Bandits. The fourth was a 1978 Chevrolet R30 pickup truck, styled like the one featured in "Cannonball Run." The "Bandit" re-creation, a 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am that Reynolds ordered to be as "movie-correct" as possible but featuring a custom-built 200-4R automatic transmission, sold for $192,500. The car features a freshly built Pontiac 400 cubic-inch V8 mated to a four-speed automatic and featuring all-new Butler Performance parts and air-conditioning components. Reynolds reportedly said this was his favorite car from his films, and it even came with an authentic movie-correct CB radio and CB antenna. The red retro-rocket "Hooper" '78 Firebird, with a 403 cubic-inch V8 and a three-speed automatic, hammered for $88,000. By comparison, a gold 1978 Trans Am also offered at the Las Vegas auction but not connected to Reynolds fetched $27,500. The 1987 Chevy R30 pickup was a re-creation of the Indy Hauler pace truck seen jumping over a moving freight train in "Cannonball Run." It hammered for $49,500. The fourth car never appeared in any of Reynolds' films but is instead the only surviving example of two Trans Ams used to promote the Tampa Bay Bandits of the now-defunct USFL, having been driven out onto the field by Reynolds and his late friend and co-star, Jerry Reed, during opening day one season. It also sold for $49,500. At the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Auction in 2016, Reynolds accompanied a 1977 Trans Am used to promote "Bandit" onto the auction block. That car sold for $550,000.
