Have you guys seen this? Maybe it’s old news to you. (My phone won’t let me search the forum). But I just came across this video. Pretty crazy! He doesn’t say where it is.

Based on what he said in the video, sounds like he wants to keep the location a secret but he’s willing to let people order parts from him.

I really don't understand why people think they are sitting on a pot of gold with these cars..... I have seen several of these "Fiero Graveyards" over the years.... usually owned by delusional old guys who think they are sitting on a winning lottery ticket. The cars rot in a field and eventually get sent to the crusher

Don, I posted that picture to show another Fiero junkyard. You are correct. That is the Fiero Factory.

The yard in the utube video is Johnny's Auto Salvage in Newville PA. You can't miss the Fieros when driving east on I-76. They have been there for over a decade.

The junkyard in Pennsylvania having a school bus and an old Monte Carlo visible on Street View (just like the ones in the video) is obviously just a coincidence.
