(I'm posting this in General, because it's a special deal, not just a "wanted to buy" thing)

A television show contacted me asking if I could help them find 2 running Fieros for an upcoming project. Here are the parameters:

Good running condition
V6
Automatic
SAME model (SE, GT, Indy...doesn't matter, but both must be the same)
Paint doesn't matter
Seller must transport to their location in the San Francisco Bay Area
Deadline Oct 14
Max purchase price: $1300

They will be purchasing, modifying and keeping the cars.

Contact me by email, and I'll forward your information.

Sorry, forgot that. First post edited.

Sorry, can't say. It's not a local show.

If any one has 2 (OEM) from the factory V6 Automatic Indy’s for sale I will give $2600 each…now that would be a deal

I hate curiosity soooooooooooo much.

Yes, it would. But these have to be V6s.

Let's see... they want:

Its possable, I bought my 1st fiero for $500 granted it needed a fuel pump but $500 for an 86 V6 with under 60K on it.

quote Originally posted by FierOmar: Let's see... they want: Dream on hooker... dream on.

Yeah, I know. It really is a tough order to find TWO running V6s for that price, even autos. But, that's what they need.

Is that price per fiero or for the both of them?

quote Originally posted by pontiackid86: Is that price per fiero or for the both of them?

Price per Fiero.

quote Originally posted by fierobear: Price per Fiero.

That would probabley be doable on mabey 2 SE's or somthing. good luck ill keep an eye out around here for you.

It is a TV show you can sell then 2 POS for that money let then fix some real wrecks that we are leaving alone because of the $$$.
Come one you can find them 2 gts wasted away let them blow out their budget we know what they are up for, they may not.

Its myth busters no doubt about it and their going to skew whatever result without actually trying to give a balanced or even objective comparison to whatever they are doing. IF its about cost per mod against a super car then look to have some of the fiero owners here like fiero x and others go there or meet up somewhere to prove the point fairly. If their testing the nitrous thing then why not get some pos Honda and use those.

it has to be!

2 the same huh, my guess is at least one gets totalled.

Anybody contact Ed Parks yet ? I'm sure for that price each, he can find two.

There is one here on C List but it has slight rear end damage. $1500.

The clues
He is in North California
http://www.m5industries.com/ is located in San Francisco perhaps anything north of LA is north California but i see it as half way although only furthest city north is Sacrimento.

i think ed's already sold the place to jeremy...but i'm sure out of all the cars, two running v6's could be found.


so do the cars need to be titled? i know where there's an 86SE w/ 60K for $700 ...but it doesn't have the title and no, it's not stolen

quote Originally posted by 2.5: 2 the same huh, my guess is at least one gets totalled.

That wasn't my impression, based on what the person from the show told me. It sounded pretty cool.

$1300 each is do-able, but to include transportation to CA, That's a hard sale.

Geez John....I thought for sure Greg Barron would be all over this!!

Kit

so, once again....do they have to have titles? thanks

quote Originally posted by labbe001: so, once again....do they have to have titles? thanks

In most parts of the country you can't legally sell a car without a title. Depends on what CA expects, but given what I know about Kalifornia, you probably do need a title to make the sale legit.

None of his cars run.

bump for saturday

bump

She did say I could mention it's a show on the Discovery Channel

Oh, and just to clarify...it's $1300 for EACH car.

Good luck with that. These will have to be local cars to make it worth while.

Yeah, I know. I'm just passing the word, trying to help. What they plan to do with them actually sounded like a cool idea.

Wrecks to riches?

My brother has a 86 GT for sale, he is asking $800 and we would be able to transport it.

This deserves a bump. Almost went to Page 2.

quote Originally posted by fierobear: She did say I could mention it's a show on the Discovery Channel

Guess that narrows it down to:
Mythbusters
Smashlab
or How It's Made

quote Originally posted by Haggerty: Guess that narrows it down to: Mythbusters Smashlab or How It's Made

"Fiero" and "Smashlab" should not be used in the same sentence, let alone the same 30-minute block...
