1988 Fiero Kit Car
Looks like this MAY be a good buy but damage is reported as "all over" so who knows what that means. Rather nice car but possibly flood salvage. Bid only $500 at this point .

Odd that they list it as an Automatic but the pictures show it to be a manual. Regardless, that VIN does not show anywhere here on the forum, so its another entry for the 88 Database Guy's list.

... and they claim it's an '88 but the intake manifold screams '86.... I'm smelling something fishy....

The top strut mounts are '88, as is the heat shield for the alternator. Despite the top intake manifold being a little odd, I suspect it's actually an '88.

The fire-damaged Mera or Ferrari 308 kit (or whatever it is) and the Lambo at a couple of their other yards are almost as interesting.

The intake manifold could have been filled in to cover the Fiero identification so it may not be an 86 or 85. The angle of the EGR valve indicates it's sitting on an 88 crossover pipe.
If this is the actual car, the total damage could be severe rust. If truly interested, I would have the seller send you a current picture staged as you might describe, like standing with a hand on the side mirror or with a finger pointing at the VIN tag or something. It's an unusual pose. The depicted car definitely isn't a flood-damaged car.[This message has been edited by fierofool (edited 11-28-2024).]
