At least I think it is,
It has the indy interior and you can still see where the old stickers were, (covered with hand-painted black paint!)
I actually runs, and it only cost me $300 cdn!
I was gonna part it out, but I think I'll keep it

Welcome to the Indy club
But parting out an Indy?? Is it in that bad of shape?

Not bad enough,
This is my third Fiero, nothing too strange to most, but I'm only eighteen and I'm trying to get an 85 GT now.
My plan was to part the indy out to help fund my 87 GT, but I had second thoughts...she stays in one piece!
PS, can someone check that VIN to find out for sure its an indy? Is there an RPO code for it?

Why do you have 18 digits in that VIN #?
(supposed to be 17)

I've owned four Fiero's none of them Indy's .
An Indy is on my list , please don't part it out .If you need to raise money for a Fiero project , please sell the Indy to someone who will restore it .
Great buy at $300 CDN .
Here's hopeing you do the right thing !

BTW:
You might want to seriously look into replacing the radiator fan ASAP if it is still original.
They have glued on magnets inside that have a nasty habit of coming unglued, sliding around and shorting out the "entire" wiring in the car. The wiring harnesses will light up and split open like a well microwaved hot dog. If you don't get lucky like I did and quickly disconnect the battery in time, you might not just lose all the wiring but the whole car too.
My nice Indy almost went up in flames a few weeks ago when this exact thing happened to me.
I have a thread on here somewhere about it.
Just an FYI from a fellow Indy owner
