Nice looking truck, except for color- now Mitch and Dan will be sniffing around....... ;D
Looks very capable-when are you going to Moab?

Fiero! Nice! Are you planning on putting on body kits and things like that? I have a neighbor that converted his Fiero and now it looks like a Ferrari. So now it's a Fiero-rrari!  :D
Hope for the best. Prepare for the worst!

Nice looking truck.  I like the color.  And, I'm glad to see that the whole truck is there.

i just bought a 1985 Pontiac Fiero GT V6 4-speed manual tonight as my DD for $1400. the thing is in tip top shape inside and out. Just a few minor things that need to be changed, like the brake pads! now time to work on the deal for the sale of the X and SAS'd Frontier.

Nice ride Craig, and for the $$$ you can't beat it.  I (scary to admit this) remember when those cars came out, and one of the big marketing claims was that the body panels were made out of a "space age" material, I think it was called "endura-flex" that was supposed to resist dings and minor dents.  Fiero's were all the rage when I was a freshman in college, because they were kind of a throw back to the days of the Corvair.  Looked like a mid engine sports car, fairly light, and pretty good zip. 

Have fun, and post up some pics of the Frontier next.

Just try not to look into the NorthStar motor swaps guys have been doing to them(unless you want an never ending mod-a-thon between the fronty(or X) and the fiero). You think the V6 is quick......wait until you put an DOHC aluminum V8 in there.

I think it was called "plastic"?

 :D...exactly!  Marketing!  Woot!  :D


Hey Craig, I am signed up for the GONEMOAB9 event...any interest in going?  I am headed out on Saturday May 22nd, and have to come back on Wednesday, May 26th.  Let me know, and anyone else on SCCX who is interested, it looks like a great trip!
