I was saving these for my turbo project, but had to sell my Formula so they are up for sale. This is a set of NOS GM "Turbo" emblems from the 1980's. I believe this is the same emblem or at least nearly the same one that they used on the red turbo prototype car as seen at the 20th and 25th shows. This same emblem was applied in the center of the rear spoiler/intercooler mounting base at the back of the car. See pics below.

These were difficult to find and will likely only get harder to find. But they would really give a nice "factory" or "OEM" look on your turbocharged Fiero! They are approximately 5 inches long as you can see in the pic with the tape measure.

Pics of the emblems:








Pics of the emblem on the protoype car I grabbed from another thread here on the forum:





Asking $50 shipped for the set, but open to offers.

These are too large for the door handle if you look at the pic with the ruler. This is the one they used on the fenders/doors of some of the factory GM turbo cars in the 80's...

I believe that's one of 'em, yup. Turbo Grand Am as well if I recall.

Seems the only posters here are people simply curious about what cars these were originally on rather than buyers, lol!

EDITED first post to add another pic of the emblems with the tape measure so that you can see the size better.

Nobody is interested in OEM looking Turbo Badges for their Turbo Fiero?

Those are factory grand am fender emblems. They were not used on sunbirds, those were completely different.

Thanks for the info! I was pretty sure on the Grand Am application, but not sure about anything else. I knew they were GM originals and very much like the one used on the Fiero Turbo Prototype pictured above though.

No problem..

GM actually built a good many 2.0 (LT3) turbo Fiero's as test mules. Cooling remained an issue.

Had both SUnbird Turbo's and Grand AM Turbo's back then....Started my love of Pontiac!
