This is my 1988 Pontiac Fiero Formula Edition, with a 3800 Series II L67 V6 motor swap, she is my baby! They made less then 6,000 of these cars making it pretty rare, and as the days go by, more and more collectible! The motor and transmission are from a 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP, that had roughly 40,000 miles when pulled. This is a "project car" and is CURRENTLY NOT DRIVEABLE! I purchased the car from the Original owner family (Father and son owned prior to me). It is a born and raised Georgia car with ZERO rust on the cradle or body, the only rust to speak of is some very minor surface rust on the battery tray. The tires are older, but show no signs of age, very sticky Yokohama AV1-60i with almost .300 tread left (over 1/4inch, almost like new). The battery was also new last year. The car has AC, but the system is not hooked up. The headlight motors work, The power window motors also work, but are slow. The paint is original, has plenty of scratches, etc, and quite faded. it cleans up OK, but I had plans to repaint the car to its original glory. The body itself has very few minor flaws the two most major I have pictured, and they are simply small cracks in the fiberglass panels.The trunk liner is gone, and the trunk has been bent in slightly to clear the headers. The interior is all original and complete. It is pretty clean, the drivers seat is torn, and the passengers seat has a small tear on the side (pictured). Odometer shows 182,595, but the title reads EXEMPT due to the age of the car. In Georgia as of 2013 it is able to register as a ANTIQUE vehicle, and that means no inspections, or emissions testing. The insurance on the car is very cheap, I paid $90 a month, where my 1997 Buick Regal costs me twice that! I PERSONALLY HAVE OVER 300 HOURS OF TIME IN THE MOTOR BUILD AND ORIGINAL SWAP The drivetrain swap was done to the car, and driveable. I had the car registered and insured until recently. The stock 3.8L supercharged V6 motor produces 240 Horsepower, and 280 Ft-Lbs of torque. The only things that were not completed when the drivetrain swap was done is some minor wiring such as the speedo, tach, and odometer are not wired to the harness yet, but the car ran perfect, and drove awesome. Gobs of torque felt with the custom solid torque strut. This winter I pulled the car into my shop to drop the cradle and do some performance modifications to the drivetrain. The mods to the motor are as follow: Ported TB Ported LIM Ported Gen III M90 Eaton Blower with silencer ports block off plate installed ZZP MPS system installed for easy pulley swaps, with 3.1, 3.25, and 3.4 Pulleys ARP Head stud kit ARP Header Bolts ARP Rocker Bolts Aluminum LIM gasket upgrade Comp Cams XP Cam Comp Cams 105# Valve Springs Comp Cams Valve Locks Stainless Steel SI Valves ZZP Titanium Valve Spring Retainers Ported and Polished Heads Stainless Steel PCV covers Walbro 255LPH Fuel Pump (6) Siemens Deka 60# EV1 Fuel Injectors ZZP High Volume Water Pump ZZP Flex Plate ZZP 10.5MM Plug Wires (red) ZZP Modified Fuel Rails (black powder coated) ZZP Polished Aluminum Valve Covers ZZP Drilled Thermostat ZZP oil Volume kit Speed Daddy Headers with upgraded clamps 3" to dual 2.5" Y pipe Dual Glasspacks 2.5" tail pipes with dual, Authentic Chevrolet C6 Corvette tips TransGo shift-kit installed in the 4L60E-HD Transmission Custom Low mount Alternator Bracket New Radiator All New Poly Bushings (front set needs to be installed still) (4) New KYB GR-2 Struts New Stainless Brake Lines all around (front set needs to be installed still) When I was driving the car, before I dropped the cradle to add all the new performance parts it was in great driving condition, started every time, ran perfect with 0KR, shifted excellent transmission was very tight, never overheated, and stopped excellent. When It is put back together it will be an amazing street machine! I had plans to have the car tuned to run on E85(Ethanol), and all the modifications to do that have been done, or run it on pump gas no problem. To finish this project car the fuel tank must be reinstalled, fuel pump and lines hooked up, install alternator and starter, ignition system installed, re install the plumbing (coolant lines, vacuum lines, etc) fill all fluids (Oil, Trans, Coolant), then hook up the wiring harness to the motor and transmission, Make the final torquing to cradle, and motor mount bolts, then it is ready to start and drive! All the parts needed for the car to be put back together are here. PLUS I have several large boxes worth of good spare stock 3800 motor parts, and the original OEM Fiero parts. The motor has not been run since the modifications have been made, so all of the parts are still NEW AND NEVER USED. The 3800 does not have a break in procedure for the cam, so it is ready to run! I would highly recommend a professional tune be done on the PCM for maximum gains from the modifications. The setup on this motor is highly capable of well over 300 Horsepower to the WHEELS, and even more TORQUE. I DAILY DRIVE a Buick Regal GS 100+ miles, it also has the same motor as my Fiero, but with less mods done. The mods to it are, High Compression Block, VS cam, Ported Blower with 3.5 pulley, Speed Daddy Headers, full exhaust, and was Dyno Tuned @ 271HP and 331FT-LBS TO THE WHEELS. The Fiero has a more powerful setup in a lighter RWD Platform, and a TON more money invested. I have tons of experience working on, and modifying these 3.8L supercharged motors... I have $7,418.78 invested in JUST PARTS for the Fiero to date, and am very meticulous about keeping receipts, I do not have every receipt ever, but I do have most of them. I understand that my loss will be someones gain, and am at a point and time in my life where projects and toys are not my priority, so as sad as it makes me it is time for me to move on from this beautiful classic collectors car.

THIS MEANS YOU WILL NEED A ROLLBACK WITH A WINCH OR SIMILAR TO LOAD THE CAR ONTO A TRAILER BECAUSE IT CANNOT BE STARTED AND DRIVEN, IF YOU HAD ENOUGH MAN POWER IT MAY BE POSSIBLE TO PUSH THE CAR ONTO A TRAILER, I AM WILLING TO HELP, BUT I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MOVING OF THE CAR/PARTS. I have some videos I took of me driving the car right before pulling the car into my shop this winter.These ARE with the 3.8L V6 motor in the car. I can link you to these on Youtube if you message me and ask for them. The car is currently located at my home shop, in between Powder Springs, and Marietta, GA off of Dallas HWY (120) I highly suggest, as I would with any vehicle purchase, that you contact me and personally come by to see the car in person. I am not trying to hide anything, and have been completely honestly throughout the listing about the vehicle, but of course it is always better to view in person! I have hundreds of pictures of the car from through out the build, so if you have any questions PLEASE ASK THEM BEFORE BIDDING. I did my best to think of everything to say about the project, but cannot garentee all the small details have been mentioned. I will have no problem answering any questions, or emailing you pictures of anything specifically requested. I work week days, and attend school, so I am a busy person, but will do my best to keep an eye on my email. Feel free to EMAIL, TXT, or CALL me with any questions as well. If you are seriously interested get in touch with me, I am a nice guy, and am willing to work with you. Thank You, Chris (989)-312-1376, Yamaha_ftw@yahoo.com Deposit is NON REFUNDABLE!
