Local selling V8Archie Hatchback - Does Archie still sell them? (Page 1/2)

Found a V8 Archie hatchback for sale, locally. In my relatively small hometown city in Idaho of all places! Does anyone know if Archie still makes them? The seller is claiming he doesn't make them anymore and is asking $1000 for it. It's listed for $760 on Archie's website. It came with his car and he doesn't want to use it so I'm considering offering him significantly less for it (he's had it listed for 4 weeks). Thanks!

Archie sold those for that price PLUS around $150 shipping and it came with no glass. If that guy is selling it WITH the glass installed, I'd offer him $700-$800.

No glass, still exactly as Archie sold it.

Supply and demand either you want one or you don't wait another decade for next listing.

So Archie isn’t selling them anymore? If not, why are they still listed on his website? This is my main question. If he’s still selling them, I don’t want to pay more.

Archie still sells his fiberglass products, you just have to contact him and order it.

As exoticse mentioned above, you have to contact Archie directly. He went into semi-retirement years ago but still provides parts on request. You can email or PM him on here.

Sounds good, thanks.

I'd offer the guy who has the part $200. That will soften him up. Its a very LOW demand item so if he doesn't accept the offer its doubtful he will sell it. What really surprises me is people that have some Fiero parts and believe that they are gold. They are far from it.

They are a good look, but restricting heat evacuation from the engine bay isn't something I'd want to do.
