My Dad has finally decided that he wants to actively advertise his car for sale. I'll be very sad to see it go, but I just don't have the space or resources for another myself. He's had the car since 1991 (2nd owner) - and has talked about selling it on & off over the past few years - especially since getting his Saturn Sky Redline. It's really a great car and, while he doesn't like to admit it, it has a bit of a unique history. Here are the basics (Copy & Paste from the CL ad):

  • Very rare silver T-Top car!
  • Former National Fiero show award winner
  • 75k original miles
  • 18 inch aftermarket wheels
  • Black OEM 1988 Fiero wheels included (no tires)
  • GM AM/FM radio with CD installed
  • Original radio included
  • All suspension bushings, struts, springs, and brakes replaced approximately 3k miles ago
  • Automatic Transmission
  • Everything works except cruise control (probably a vacuum leak)
  • New side window dew wipes included (in box)
  • Paint and upholstery need a little TLC
  • Nice driving car, Second owner / purchased in 1991/All records available



Asking $5995 obo
. (all serious offers considered).
You can email my Dad, Chuck Bartlett, directly at gtcharli-at-aol.com

A few more Fiero-specifics: it has leather '87 GT seats (it originally had cloth), and it was originally a sunroof car. This car received the last official "factory installed T-Top" in 1993, just days prior to the FOCOA National show in Pontiac Michigan. We literally took delivery of the car and drove it straight to Waterford Hills during the track day event there. It was the last kit the factory (formerly C&C) had in inventory, and installed. The company president himself added it to the T-Top registry.









This car is near-stock and could easily be made that way (really, my preference) - and I would love to see it go to a good PFF home if at all possible!

Darn!

Why couldn't it be Elko, Nevada!

Maybe then I could sell both my GT's and grab the T-top car.

That has to be one the most beautiful "stock" Fieros I have ever seen.....and for $5995.00, it's a steal! If only I had a rich old lady, uncle, aunt, or sugar momma.

Not sure if the car needs any work but for the price it's worth it. I'd be curious on the RPO code for the paint color.

Wow, great car. Steal of a price.

Coincidentally, I also own a Fiero GT and a Sky Red Line. While the Sky is certainly faster and more refined, I thoroughly enjoy driving both cars. The low, laid back seating in the Fiero is something I've always loved.

I've asked my Dad to snap some pics of the interior & seals... if not, I can get them over the weekend!

According to http://fierostuff.com/RPOcodes.html the RPO code for the 86-88 Silver should be 16... I can verify on the fender sticker later.

It needs a little TLC on the interior (specifically there is a small tear in the driver's seat), the paint is starting to show it's age in a few places, and the quarter windows show some "splintering' on the corners (not uncommon on T-Top cars).

LOL... what a difference 7 years makes, huh?

You can even buy a T-Shirt from TFS with the car (when it had my gold wheels on it)

...and FWIW, it was my Dad who really wanted to sell it. Just thankful it ended up in my garage.

I miss the good ol days when you could pick up a top of the line 88 GT for $6K. Now it would be $20K.

Haha no it wasn't me that brought the thread back to life. I just commented on what those that brought it back said. FIERO JOHN-WI is the one that brought the thread back.
