This is a 1986 fiero gt with a fuel injected zz4 built by Archie. Also has Archie side skirts, one of the first Archie hatchbacks and custom side scoops. Flipper hold by norms fiberglass, and whodeanies awesome read bumper. Included is one completely mounted and one partially mounted decah Lambo hinges. Interior needs replacing. Included are the cool blue LED gauges made by a Pff member. Original four speed transmission. Gas strut flipper hood conversion mostly completed.
Clarification for above. The interior needs to be reinstalled/replaced. One lambo door has been fitted and installed, but needs the door skin put back on. The other lambo door was half installed, and the rest of the parts are included. The toms digital clusters are still NIB. The norms hood was being upgraded to gas struts and a different latch. The latch was not replaced, so it may require some fitting there. Otherwise the car needs a wash and a good paint job. All the parts for it to be back to 100% are included, plus spares.
The norms hood and rear bumper were modified to on include the black bumper stripe around the car as I wanted to retain some feel of the original body. Door panels not mounted but included. Interior parts included. 17inch wheels included.
This was a several year long project. The rest of my budget for this thing disappeared into whodeanies shop. I have a great deal off money into this car, but can't justify finishing it. With some body work and some paint you could have a sweet ass lookin fiero.
Anyone truly interested hit me up and make an offer. It's open house in SE Wisconsin if anyone wants to see it. Thanks.
Looking for 8k

Now this is a shame to have to sell your dream car. That while ordeal with whodeenie just pisses me off that someone could do that to all the good people on this forum. I'm sure after getting screwed I would probably feel the same way you do about finishing the car. GLWS hope you change your mind about it though.
soooo....... how far South and East in Wisconsin is it again?? on a % scale 1 to 10 how complete is this car? can i drive it home during the daylight hours?? also is it the drivers side door hinge thats installed?? I hope
i have been thinking about adding a V8 to the stable of a 87-3800SC and a 87 Mera i already have, so a 3rd Fiero would be welcome for sure, thanks in advance .......
*edit* whoops i re-read it.....No door panels. that could be a problem for me. you got any pictures, maybe??

I can tell you from actually seeing the car in person that this would have been/will be one stunning ride when finished. It makes me sad that you are moving towards selling it. I hope you reconsider and move towards finishing your dream.

Thanks. I have thought a lot about it, but I need a much smaller life for my next adventure. I appreciate all the bumps, and hope someone makes a sweet car out of this someday.

It is not clear to me what the exact situation is for this car and it may not be clear to potential buyers. What is done? What needs to be done? I may be a dummy, but in reading the links I did not feel I know what the deal is with the car as it is today.

Thanks, I will update the original post.

Have you driven it since you got it back from whodeanie's? I know you didn't do extensive road testing in it's condition, but does it shift without grinding? I'm sure it sounds great. Start on first try? I'd love to get a few walk around videos before it gets here, and hear/see it running if your phone can take video. All pics and videos are more the merrier. 😃
