I have been talking back and forth with a member of one of my local 4x4 forums who had a nice ssei deal. I have decided to go 4.9, but I thought this was worth posting here for you guys, as I thought it was a perfect swap car.

He did try to register, but has had problems getting it activated so for now I'll post it for him to get it out there. The following I have copied from our PM's on the other forum

This is a titled car:

"It is a 98 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi with 154k on the ODO. The trans is supposed to only have around 60k on it. I brought it back from Mass. for a parts car to repair one in the shop. Other than missing some front and rear body parts, the drivetrain is all there."

link to facebook for video of it running.

the car is in Lafayette Indiana, which is why I did not go for it. Just to far for me.

I'll have a craigslist add for it when it gets sent to me.
we had agreed on a price that was comfortably under $1000 for the whole car, less for the drivetrain only, but I'll let you work that out with him.

This is a link to his profile in my local forum if you want to get a hold of him fastest, or I can forward any messages until he gets this account straightened out.

the forum is Greatlakes4x4.com his username is mehoffine and has been easy to get a hold of.

I will update this as he sends info my way.

Sure looked like a great donor for the price.

Is this a good donor? Does anyone know which series this would be?

Should be a series 2 motor. And yes it would be a good donor car.

yes series 2

I would have bought it if I could have transported it cheaper, but my van is a pig on gas towing a car. If it was local to me, I would be swapping a series II not a 4.9

I was contated by Meoffine on gl4x4 through an add where I was searching a for a 4.9 locally. Being a 4x4 forum he figured it was to swap into a dune buggy, and he was not aware of the fiero swap.

I suppose I should be trying to convince him to buy a fiero with a bad engine instead of selling the ssei

I have not seen it in person, but the video on facebook he shot on request by me and his quick replies were good enough for me to post it here for him.

bump...
this is still available.
