P.S. I would also consider trade or partial trade for some awesome thirdgen parts, like a 9" or 12-bolt rear, new-ish roller 350 block, various suspension pieces, a MIG welder, or anything else that I may think is awesome. My IROC needs to be finished.

Also, I will trade for an AWD wagon or small AWD SUV, as I need to find a college car for my little sister. Preferably an '00+ with less than 100k, but must run good. I'll pay a good bit more for one worth a good bit more than these Fieros.

I figured out how to put my cell phone pics online. Here's the '86...

Ouch, 80 views and not even a mention of "Fiero's suck!", huh?

These would be a fun project if time would permit. They handle way better than most thirdgens, too.

Re: Trade: 2 Fiero GT's for a Chevy truck?

Yeah, I plan on finding a nicer '88 (had redesigned suspension) next year or so if I get rid of these. They are fun, though they make the IROC feel like a Lincoln Townboat. A very fast Lincoln Townboat.

The IROC is dead in the water (or garage) for now. It's TT'd and runs, but has a slight rod knock, desperately needs a new Y-pipe setup (hence the need for a welder), and needs a tune, it's running $58 in open loop. Otherwise, I still need to make more heat shields, swap in an LS1 fan, and convert to hydraulic power brakes.
I plan on getting a new ZZ4 shortblock and swapping in my pistons to call it a day. That'll cure the rod knock, the rust in the bottom of the block, worn cylinders around std. pistons, and will let me reset my ring gap (I want it tighter now). Pretty much everything else around or in the engine is brand new, rebuilt, or isn't wearable anyway.
Beyond all that, I either need to get hooked up with an inspection station in MD to pass me then tune with E85+open wastegates to pass the WOT emissions or I have to wait until 2010 to register it as historic to skip on the inspection and emissions test.

See, somebody should trade me something for these Fieros to help an F-body guy out.
