I'm selling a very clean, low-mileage 1988 Pontiac Fiero Formula with a 2.8-liter V-6 and three-speed automatic transmission. I bought this car back in February because I wanted a small project to keep me busy until Spring. I got a bigger project than I bargained for. This car had never seen a regular service, except for oil changes. I pulled the original plugs, wires, cap and rotor as part of a massive tuneup. But it needed more to run properly. The EGR tube has been replaced with the expensive braided stainless unit from The Fiero Store. I installed a rebuilt distributor and bought the top of the line Accel branded wires, cap and rotor. I cleaned the throttle body, replaced the 02 and coolant temperature sensors and temp gage sender. She's got a new thermostat and a new battery. This summer the head gaskets and intake gaskets were replaced and new oil seals were installed on the valves. The transmission got a new TCC. She runs smooth, cool, quiet and quick. There are brand new Delco rotors behind each wheel and new pads and brake hardware. I flushed out the old fluid. Brakes are great! I also bought and installed four new Sachs (the high quality German brand) shocks and replaced the bump stops and gaiters in the rear. The suspension is quite tight. And she is now running smooth and strong. A few small jobs remain: The catalytic converter rattles a bit when cold. The a/c works fine, but the belt sometimes squeals. That's it. The tires are nearly new and all the electrics work. She's spotless underneath; not a speck of rust. I am the 3rd owner and I have the original window sticker. The title is clean and clear. Total original miles are 56,000 and change. I use the car daily and she's fun to drive and handles really well, like a go cart. The '88 models were given a redesigned Lotus-inspired suspension system, and the car corners great. Some extra parts will come with the car. I bought a set of new chrome GT exhaust tips and a good used GT steering wheel. On a scale of 1-10, the body is a solid 7. There are a few scuffs here and there, but no damage requiring body work. The interior is clean and nice. You can't find any used cars with under 60K miles for this money, much less a sports car with working a/c that is good to go as a daily driver. You can fly in to Detroit and drive her home. Full tank of gas included in the sale. Thanks for looking. Rich
