UPDATED INFORAMTION!!! Please re-check this thread..............
Hi folks, Hate to do this but family situations take priority. I'm putting 2 of my 4 Fiero's up for sale.
Selling my sons 84SE "Indy Clone" project. Was to be an Indy Pace Car look-a-like but with a 3800SC. Car has 85GT front and rear fascias, is all original, has 2.5 / AT, has VERY nice interior. Needs driveline and normal maintenance work. Asking $500. *** SOLD*** Also my 88' Formula. This was going to be my V8 "hot rod" project. Prior to Fiero's I was heavy into street rods and I was going to build this car like I did many rods. I actually bought the car from the original owner, it had sat a few years in a barn (damn pigeons!). I then sold it to buy my Indy Pace car. Bought it back from the guy who had striped it to do a 308 conversion. It has a 95% rust free space frame, I have all the body panels (went with a GT rear clip) except the rear deck lid, custom Vette style hood, probably 80% of the interior. Nice set of GT wheels with near new tires. Selling as a rolling space frame, or with body panels. $300 for the frame, $500 for all the Formula parts I have. I can deliver any (or all, L.O.L.!) of these cars up to about 100 miles from my place (Joliet, IL), distance is limited to what I can do in a day, with working two jobs time is the critical issue, just cover the fuel cost and some food!
Thanks for reading -Mike
P.S. !!!! Also now have photo's added to the Formula link, selling these parts:
3r Racing bucket seats, red in color, great condition w/ tracks. $150 ***SOLD*** Gray passenger seat w/ speakers (85 GT?) very good condition. $40 Black front console, good condition. $25 Brown dash from a 86 SE with 57, 976 miles, VERY good condition, includes the gauge cluster. $100 Brown column (from above car). $50 NEW CV shaft for an automatic. $40 Parts from the 88' Formula: 120 mph gauge cluster. $75 AM/FM/Cass. radio, works. $20 ***SOLD*** Tan rear console, fair to good condition. $15 Vette style hood, very nice condition, needs final prep work before paint. $200
It's Illinois, April and AlGore says global warming-we're sunk. I saw Noah post on Craigslist that he was looking for any free lumber. Rain and cold for a while.
Sorry to hear you're thinning out the herd. Wish I could get my daughter to go for a Fiero but something from the 80's is not cooolllll enough for some. I'll put the word out around me and hope I can help.
Take care and I hope all is well. If I had a few bills I'd take the one just for the 3800SC.

Hey Tom! Thanks for the kind words and the bump. I wish I didn't have to let them go, but working two jobs and looking after elderly parents is leaving me with no spare time for project cars (I'll barely have time to enjoy the one's I have that run! L.O.L.). I'm counting my blessings that I have a good job and a side business to "keep up" with the bills, these are tough times. Hope all is well with you, see you this summer. -Mike

Hey Mike - If you end up selling the 88 feel free to give the buyer my contact info, I still have a few odds and ends from that car scattered about the garage.
Edit for description error! After my son and I got his 84 out for some good pictures, I realized there is hardly any rust in this car! If you look closely at the pictures, the right rear trunk corner is near perfect and the left rear has slight rust at the rail seam, but no holes. There's a little rust near the battery box area but the box is still solid. Just passing this along for anyone interested. Thaks for looking!
Darn...wish you weren't so far away, or I'd take that '88 roller off of your hands. The '86 I'm working on is going to take a lot of chemo to get rid of its cancer.
Hi Jason, Still have quite a few items, The Tan dash and rear console, Black Formula gauge pod (120 speedo), NEW CV shaft for an automatic, Gray visors, Tan map pockets, Tan and Gray interior door panels, 84'-87' Craddle, Vette style hood, probably more!
Check the pic's in the link from my other thread..... Parting 88' Formula, LOTS more!

Jefrysuko is supposed to come tomorrow (Monday) and get all the suspension components, front and rear cradles and anything else we can remove. And then........she's off to the salvage yard I really hate to do it, this frame is so nice. In the not-to-distant future there will be some guys from the midwest who will wish they had a 88' space frame this clean for their restoration!
Jason- Almost forgot, I just found the set of sail panels I had bought for that GT rear clip. I got these from kahines on eBay. They're a nice set of repro's. Here's a link to the current auction :

Exactly...I'd kill to have a rust-free space frame sitting in my garage, instead of the swiss cheese '86 I have to work with. Plus, I'd rather have an '88 anyhow. Oh well...
