I have 12k, to find me the dream car I want for my 50th birthday, what is out there? Must be an 88 unless you have done an 88 cradle swap. Coilovers preferred but not necessary and chop tops can sprint to the front of the line!! I would also prefer that Mr. Mikes seats or something of the custom variety, the more attention to detail the better..

PM me if you have something, would like to keep the distance within 800 miles, but will go up to 1200 if the car is sound enough to make the trip back (Vermont), looking for a turn key and go, please don't BS me as I am familiar with these cars and know what to look for..

Thanks!!

Please call me @ 209-822-6700. I have an 86 with an 4.9 and the 4t60e trans.

Cradle swap or no?

Not sure if he still has it, but Mike Onzel on the Facebook Fiero group had a very nice 3800sc car for sale. Where in VT are you?

I have a 88CJB T Top car with 39k original miles. Maroon color. Gray cloth perfect interior....can swap to Mr. mikes any style, also a complete 3800 / tranny swap ready to go into it w / coilovers ...... I can build you your car if your interested ....

Boz

Sent you a PM.


Bozzie - I'm not in the market for another car, but wow does yours sound nice :-)

Well... Not really "LOOKING" to sell it but I know I should. Too many cars... + More projects that I'd like to see financed too...
I have an 88 GT, 5 speed. Nice paint except for a few bird crap spots.
Painted around 2008 or so... Cadillac Mystic Red Metallic.
3800SC2 with stock pulley.
12" C4 Vette rotors and stock 88 calipers.
Mr Mike black leather seats with speakers in the headrests.
Black suede headliner.
Black leather on the door panels.
Battery relocated under right headlight.
17" wheels with recent tires.
Poly suspension bushings.
Shocks and struts replaced a few years ago with Monroes or KYBs. I'd have to look.
Stock ride height.
No rust.
No sunroof.
Brand new battery.

This is one of our daily drivers. It currently has no GT Quarter Windows... waiting in hopes I or someone else can make some nice ones with the right contour. But I'd buy new ones if I was selling it.

I'd want to get 8,000 out of it. I do love the car. It took forever for me to get it running right due to a bad ground to the coil packs, but it's all kind of fun now.

If you find the 2018 Daytona thread in GFC, it's the car with LED halo headlights in the video of us running around New Smyrna Speedway.
*** edit - I went ahead and found it for you... *** Fieros at New Smyrna 2018 (Youtube)

It wouldn't have any problem driving to Vermont from Orlando. I was planning on doing Run For The Hills in North Carolina this September...

Chuck, SAY IT ISN'T SO! You are getting out of Fieros??!?!?!

For sure, that's a NO.
I still have my daughter's 88 duke.
Then there's the screaming snail (88 Formula with 3800 S3 and a HUUUGE turbo)
Plus my first Fiero, which is a stripped down dedicated autocross car...
Plus all the parts cars.

Damn! I knew your daughter had a duke, and you have the vette and the Solstice, but I had NO idea you had another 3800SC, an autocross car and the parts cars....

Small bump please, still searching...

Cash in hand..

88T Top. Mint interior / exterior is very clean

I guess he did not see the title where you said you want a 3800SC and where you also said an 88'
