There does not appear to be any chassis reinforcement for the roof being removed, which is a major concern.

Also, not sure what they are trying to hide with the plastic bad diaper under the truck area.

Other than those two items, it looks like a nice car.

Pretty Fiero.. The lack of any underpinning bracing is of major concern and makes this car worthless in its current state... If the spaceframe has not been compromised, it could still be (relatively) easily braced and saved.. I have one roadster with the 'box x-frame' under it and a Brisa convertible with its specific beefy frame reinforcement.. Both cars still have considerable flex, but are safe and can be lifted with a service jack..

The paint job is nice. No idea about a "truck area".

All that money on this Fiero, and the gas tank is all rusty, the HVAC surround is badly warped, and the interior (center console, door panels, door jam) doesn't match the rest of the interior. The named items apparently came from an Indy Fiero, and the cover matches those, but the floor mats don't match. The headlight and dimmer switches also don't match. No idea ehat happened to the map pockets. If these issues were addressed, the car would be more aesthetically appealing.

They also want $7,950 for it. I really hope they have it on consignment because that car is not going to sell for anywhere near that or I will be very surprised.

Just like Fieroguru mentioned the Fiero DOES NOT have under support brace... don't lift this car with regular lift it will fold in half ..... I would say its worth no more than 3K on a GOOD day

Ugh, $7,995? I was not going to comment until I saw the price.

Besides what was stated correctly, the trunk is sprayed over rust and damage. A lot of it.

Every part of that car is at end of life. From the rubber on up.

The paint is maybe a twenty footer. The polish job is absolutely horrific. "Yeah Sir, I have polished lotsa cars. Sure."

Gas tank.

Seller stupidity alert: "...rotating headlights..."

The robotic voice and music for the sales video leaves little for the imagination. *sarcasm

I need to see under that boat cover.

I can see starting with a better car for $3,000 and doing all the work correctly as a better time suck than dumping a wad on this turd. Just thinking.
