Well its time for me to sell my beast. I never intended to do it but things changed and I just dont have time or space for it anymore.

- Fiero1fan dual 90mm headlight buckets with hella 90mm beams https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum4/HTML/049551.html
- Custom faded paint
Recently fixed issues
- Selector cable was replaced with a better than stock Rodney Dickman version http://rodneydickman.com/ca...th=28&products_id=37
- Installed Rodney steering rack bushing http://rodneydickman.com/ca...6_43&products_id=101

Problems (wish I had time to fix them)
- Clutch pedal fades due to a bad master or slave cylinder. Included with the car is a new master cylinder from the Fiero store and a rodney dickman aluminum slave cylinder.
- There is no e-brake, when I did the swap I had to cut the E-brake cables out of the car. Included with the car is all new e-brake cables from the Fiero store
- The headlights get stuck up and down when working, the motors are disconnected now. Included are new motors to fix this problem
- Check engine light stays on all the time due to not tuning out the secondary fan control.
- Paint is cracking, fading, lifting in spots. Needs a good paint job to look as good as it should.
- Trunk weather-strip is shot, (whos isn’t) and it needs those big push pins in the trunk carpet.
- Idles high (1,100-1,300 RPM)
- Sometimes the Speedo reads high.
VSS needs to be wired into the computer

The good…
I don’t drive this vehicle a whole lot anymore; actually it ends up sitting around for a few weeks at a time. I do have to say this thing has never failed to start for me. It always cranks right over and fires in seconds. Included with the vehicle are as many fiero / 3800 sc parts as you want. If you buy the car feel free to TAKE AS MUCH FIERO RELATED STUFF AS YOU WANT OUT OF MY GARRAGE!
Even with the fading paint, I get a ton of looks in it. If I had a garage to lay this thing up in over the winter and get all this done I would, but I just don’t have the time or space anymore. This is a great car. The previous owner treated it like a show car, he kept it immaculate. Unfortunately any time I had my hands on the vehicle I was trying to improve the swap instead of cleaning it. I hope my car goes to a great home.

Again its 5,500 OBO, PM me or respond here if you are interested. Car is located in Madison CT.

Pictures....
Click on the pictures and poke around on my web shots albums, there are more in there. I will try and get more pictures this weekend. Dont let these fool you, the paint is crap, I'l try and get some pictures of the defects.




Edited for mileage

That's a great deal, sucks when I am building something similiar and will likely end up spending more than that.

Does it have a full trunk or was it cut for the exhaust?

Yes it has a full trunk, there are some pictures of the exhaust in one of those albums if you want to see it.

Yeah, so did we! We put about 10,000 miles on it when it had the stock V6. Good luck on your sale Jason!
Marc

edit: To let you know I had it lowered on all fours with The Fiero Store's lowering springs.

Still runs sweet as a kitten! I got a daily driver 88 gt with a 4.9 and ttops which I really enjoy. I still want to do a chop top and I need a hardtop or sunroof car to do it (actually for Archie to do it). Since yours needs paint anyway...why not! I am seriously thinking about it.

Sorry about the hijack, your car is a 100% completed nice car, mine is perhaps more of a swap package for another GT. I did not really consider it as a competing product.... I edited my previous post

Is there a phone number or e-mail address you can be reached at?

I don't check this site very frequently but I'm interested in the car and have some questions for you.

Please get back to me at dc "at" daalco.com or 204 510-6289.

Thanks in advance
David.
