Sub-title: Save me from having to do this.

I have a stretched Fiero here that was built by the Prezzz & his son several years ago.

The steel work that was done to the chassis for the stretch is top notch work.

I was going to finish the car but have never had the time.

To save me from having to scrap it, I'm selling it for the highest offer over $50.00.

The terms are Cash & you bring a trailer here to pick it up before the end of February.

It would make a cool project for someone with a family that wants to haul the kids while still driving a Fiero.

Here are some pictures.

Archie















Get it out of here before the scrap yard buys it.

I've wanted to play with this car since you got it..just think of the possibilities with it! What's the wheel base on it? What size trailer would be needed to pick it up? It might be worth the 1400 mile round trip to pick it up....-Jason

The car is a rolling chassis? It steers OK? Does it require engine install, wiring, plumbing, e-brake, interiro, and body work?
Basically like a streched donor car but no structural issues with driving it on the street?

Come on guys, this is a project car.

It is a rolling chassis, It does steer but the steering column is laying on the floor & would need to be reinstalled.

It has a V-6 Automatic in it but I've never attempted to start it. I know the EGR valve is missing.

The chassis is straight & very well done. The Camel shaped roof line is just that. As you know, the leading edge of a stock Fiero roofline beging to taper off & roll down at the front & the rear edge tapers off as it goes back. Two Fiero were used to make this chassis & the camel hump bridges the gap between the 2 roofs. You can either redo that or make your exterior roof panel straight to bridge that gap.

AFAIK, none of the plumbing for cooling, brake etc. has been finished.

There are not enough interior parts to complete the interior. Other than brush the snow off of it today, I've never worked on the car. But I would suppose that the builders hadn't begun to build the interior or exterior yet.

This isn't a running driving car, if it was then It would be worth more than $50.00.

I'm just trying to save it from the boneyard.

This is what happens when alcohol and a welder find each other.

Does the backseat have a dash, it's own stereo system/etc? Or does it look like a normal backseat? Technically, you could just extend a few wires and leave the ECM in the back...

There are $50+ in wheels and bumpers in that thing. Why do people has to get so picky? I see the "hard" part done. Someone can finish it and rent it to Fiero people for weddings and get their money back

i would take it and finish it if it was not so far away it would take me 3 days and 800 in gas to get it back here.
I have seen it in person and it could be cool if finished right.

If anyone wants me to finish this car for you let me know. Buy it, send it here & pick up a complete driving car to drive home: or I can do only what you'd like me to do (body, mechanical, whatever).
I'm in N.E.Ga., I believe it would only cost about $500 to $600 to ship it here.

I'd give $3500 if it looked just like that, ran and drove, and at least had the front seats/interior in.

I'm close and could more than likely pick it up before the end of Feb. I'd love to have this car especially with 2 kids, I have a place to put it until I figure out what I want to do to it. Actually now that I think about it, I do have a friend who is magnifient with sheet metal who could do a new roof. And I could throw a $100 your way.

Back from Archie's with the limo! After 5 and a half hours and a hard time finding a trailer we managed to get one. Car fit perfect on the trailer tire hung off a half inch. Thanks Archie a bunch! We will start a build thread as soon as we get everything together might take a lil bit but will try asap. Great timing getting the limo supposed to get 15-21 inches of snow in the next couples of days.

Speaking from experience: Many years ago (Late 70's) I bought a 1965 2 door Chevelle station wagon (rare) on a 4x4 chassis. Someone roughed it in. The next owner did some good work to it but never got around to finishing it. I bought it and finished it - painted it etc. My advice is whatever you do make sure it is done right and done well. This way if you get tired of working on it someone may want to continue on knowing what has been done has been done well and can move on to finishing other things etc. It would be nice to see this continue on and maybe one day be finished.

So will Foxy Fiero13 rent it out when it’s done? As a Dad with two college daughters I could see this as a Wedding Limousine in a few years down the road. I ditto the please do a build thread comment as the Photoshop rednering does show its potential to be classy.

The Best of luck to this project.

It is already sold. I read the first post to mean that he was taking offers up until the point of come and get it... Apparently it was drive out and pick it up with some cash. Would have been a bummer to show up and find it already gone...
