I'm finally going to give up on ever getting time to restore this car and give someone else a chance to bring it back. I bought it in 99 and was my daily summer driver for years. It's all there (other than headliner and PM switches) and ran when it was parked about 5 or 6 years ago for the winter. Been in the garage/driveway since waiting to be worked on. Oil light flickered at idle when warm and smoked a little but ran fine. I'm in La Crosse, WI area. I have a truck and could Uhaul trailer it within a couple of hundred miles for cost of trailer and fuel. Not sure what it's worth but asking $1000 OBO. PM me with questions or offers. Thanks!

Bump to the top. Added some more underneath photos. Some surface rust and parts like coolant tube brackets are shot, but unibody including trunk looks and feels solid. A decent platform for a restore or upgrade project. PMing with one member... let me know if you're interested.

Added 2 more pics inside trunk with carpet pulled back. I don't think it's bad enough to make it just a parts car but that depends on what you're looking for and sheet metal skills.

Bump to the top for DRH.
I was the one PM'ing with DRH and almost bought this find.
I really hope it goes to a fellow member here and it is brought back to life again!

The wife, my left knee, and my GT said I should stick with just one.... automatics from here on out.
Formula's always will be my favorite Fiero.

DRH, thanks for the opportunity, very decent guy to deal with by the way.

If anyone in the general area of western Wisconsin is interested at any price, let me know. If it's still here in a month or so it will be headed to the scrap yard. I really hate to do that but there's not room in the garage, I'm not going to pay to store it, and I promised the wife it won't spend another winter in the driveway!

Railshot, nice pm'ing with you, best of luck with the GT!

Im also glad it didn't go to the scrap yard. If i told ppl what i paid i think they would get jealous! The frame rails are actually really clean for have rust holes in the trunk. It also has koni struts on all four corners witch is a huge plus to me. All it actually needed was a fuel pump and its up and going now, its the best riding fiero ive ever driven.

I am so glad someone saved this one!
It really deserves it, and I know the price was a steal and 1/2!
My congratulations, and an honest thanks for buying it to save.
Formula's have a very special place in my heart.
