So the mini banner stand, that is the print on flexible vinyl (so it rolls up) AND the stand to put it in?
And the PVC sign is larger and stiff enough to free stand with something to prop it up against?
The banner stand material is an Anti-Curl that rolls up into the base.
The PVC sign is a 3mil white PVC and can be lain on your front window or propped up on a stand, lean on the front fascia or put in the back on the engine and deck lid.

You can check the auction link at any time for the latest item. The same link will work each time. There will be an item approx monthly. The auction ending in July is is as follows: The high bidder for our July auction here: bit.ly/mwfc40, will have a Fiero model made with their choice of appointments by master model car builder, Onix Taveras. You can learn more about Onix and his work on his Facebook page Onix models and via his YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/c/onixfieroandscalemodelworks. Model cars often hold a special place in the heart of car lovers. Wouldn't it be nice to have a model of your own Fiero? For those of us with stock-appearing Fieros, several companies have made this possible through the years; however, even the best manufacturers can't replicate the little touches that make a model our car's mini-twin. This month, you have the chance to have your car immortalized forever in "mini" form! The model will be in either 1/24 or 1/25 Scale. Bidding will close promptly at 9:59 PM EST on July 30.

Our August auction to benefit the 40th Anniversary Celebration of the Pontiac Fiero Presented by M1 Concourse will feature this amazing replacement console skeleton! Bid today at bit.ly/mwfc40!
One of the most common aging Fiero issues is a cracked center console skeleton. For many years, replacements were hard to come by but now longtime Fiero enthusiast Matthew Meyer has created a solution! All of the mount points have been upgraded to be heat inserted plastic brass inserts with metal machined screws for removal and replacement of all your components without a lot of the hassle. It has also been beefed up in many locations for better fitment and more structure than the original! Bidding will close promptly at 9:59 PM EST on August 30.
The September auction is live! Check it out at bit.ly/mwfc40! This is a bid to have your Fiero be the car featured on the cardboard cutout in the "Kid's Zone." This cardboard cutout is a photographic prop that kids *of all ages* will enjoy having their pictures taken in during the 40th Anniversary Celebration.
The Kids Zone is an area within the hotel where our youngest Fiero enthusiasts can have fun - coloring and doing Fiero-related activities along with having their picture taken "driving" this Fiero. Our auctions support the 40th Anniversary Celebration of the Pontiac Fiero Presented by M1 Concourse, July 12-16th in Pontiac Michigan.
The winning bidder will need to provide a side shot of your car to Midwest Fiero Clubs Region of the AACA within two weeks of the close of the auction. The car will then be turned into a cutout like the one featured to the left. (Winning does not include receiving the cardboard cutout.)
Bidding will close promptly at 9:59 PM EST on September 30 2022. Form submissions are time-stamped. Therefore, no submissions stamped after 09:59:59 PM EST will be accepted. The highest bids at that point will stand. Bids will be updated at least nightly through September 30, then hourly from 4 to 9 PM, then "real-time" in the last hour. See auction for more details! ------------------ http://midwestfieroclubs.aaca.com/

November's featured auction item is a beautiful set of powdercoated parts to dress up the engine compartment a 2.8/3.4L Fiero. You are bidding on a set of powdercoated upper plenum and Valve covers in the factory style red *and a lower plenum in polished aluminum powdercoat* (not pictured here). Bid here: bit.ly/mwfc40 These pieces are donated by Jesse Smith. Winner will have the choice of engraved or a sticker.
Bids will be accepted in $10 increments; however, you will have the option of identifying that you wish to utilize your max bid. What this means is, for example, even if you could win an item for $20, if your max bid is utilized and you set the amount at $50, the latter amount is what you will pay. This will allow individuals the opportunity to donate more to the Celebration treasury. Additionally, bids are taken in the time-stamped order they are received, so if you and another individual both bid the same amount, the first bidder is the winner.
Bidding will close promptly at 9:59 PM EST on December 2. Form submissions are time-stamped. Therefore, no submissions stamped after 09:59:59 PM EST will be accepted. The highest bids at that point will stand. Bids will be updated at least nightly through December 2, then hourly from 4 to 9 PM, then "real-time" in the last hour.

The January auction is open, bid here: http://bit.ly/mwfc40 for "The Fiero Years" book! This very rare, commemorative book was given as a keep-sake to each and every Fiero team member employed on the final day of Fiero production on August 16th, 1988. The book was issued to only UAW members and Fiero Plant personnel who worked the final year of Fiero Production. There are black and white and full-color photos in this 155-page book. Every Fiero team member employed at time of book edit is listed in this book – 13 full pages of their names! This book is in very good condition and was originally given to Ed Hoover who was a member of the Maintenance & Tooling Department.
This book will be made even more unique when it is signed by each Fiero team member who participates in the 40th Anniversary Celebration of the Pontiac Fiero taking place from July 12-16, 2023 in Pontiac, MI. These monthly auctions support the #Fiero40th!
Our next featured auction item is a once in a lifetime experience! Bid at http://bit.ly/mwfc40 for the opportunity to sit "shotgun" in 1984 Indy Pace Car #3 as it paces a group of Fieros in the parade laps at the M1 Concourse on track day at the 40th!
This is one of the 3 GM-Built Pace Cars created to pace the 1984 Indianapolis 500. 3 cars were built in case any ran into issues, and this particular car was the "media darling" of the trio, used for numerous photo opportunities in the lead-up to and during race weekend. The car's performance package was designed by John Callies and includes a 2.7L Super Duty 4 cylinder capable of putting out 232 horsepower that propelled the car to a record-breaking 144mph four-lap average. Following the Indy 500, Indy Pace Car #3 started pace car duties with PPG in June 1984 in essentially the same form as it participated in the Indy 500 with various graphics changes and a few extra safety upgrades. At the end of the 1985 Indycar race season, Fiero Pace Car #3 had a major makeover with the addition of a DGP Aero Widebody, custom experimental paint, and engine upgrades that brought the engine horsepower up to 280 HP. Fiero Pace Car #3 remained active with the PPG Pace Car Fleet until mid-season 1987, pacing several Indycar races in the United States and Canada when the car was retired.
