I have heard of a Fiero Boneyard in Arizona but can't figure out where it is. Anyone know about it?

I believe that was Phil who moved to Nevada. Now all of his cars are just rotting away in the desert and who knows what is in his warehouse. This is from a thread last year. You can see some good cars there and what appears to be an Enterra at the front of that convertible GT:

Probably. Note the third brake light mounted to the bottom of the wing.
This is near the corner of S Vasco PL and Gamebird Road, Pahrump, Nevada if anyone wants to take a closer look. Hell, I may steal a few if he doesn't do anything with them soon:

Ya, I seen that. Its a shame to see rare collector cars just sit there while someone could enjoy it more than this Phil gentleman, or crook.

The white '88 GT convertible is an Automoda kit. It had the power option....meaning it had 2 hydraulic rams to open and close the top. Kind of pointless since you still ad to remove the T-Top" panels first, but I suppose if it got too windy while you were driving you could at least get the back half up easily.
If my memory serves me (and I could be mistaken), it was owned by Efrem Zimbalist, Jr.....not sure if he was the original owner or what, but when I visited FOCOA headquarters in the late 90's/early 2000's that is what Gloria told me.
I can only imagine how dry rotted the interior is now that it's been baking in the Nevada sun for years.
I think the yellow T-Top Formula is the saddest one in the group.....if it's the one that was signed by everyone on the line the day it was built, that is. It is also probably in rough shape if it's been sitting outside all these years. With such a big building and so much land (to build another storage building) I have no idea why these are sitting outside. Makes no sense to me.[This message has been edited by mrfiero (edited 09-11-2016).]

Perhaps the building is full of more Fieros ... somebody should really pay them a visit ...
