Ok, I've had like a thousand people interested in this car offering me tons of trades and lowballing and never able to come up with the money, so let's try one more time. I have a very nice looking 1987 headturning Fiero with non-factory paint, a sharp orange. It has very low miles (76k) and starts right up, runs well, and shifts well. It is bone stock besides a polyurethane dog bone. The car is 26 years old, and has held up very well for being that old. It would make a good daily driver or project for motor swap, etc. It is by no means perfect, but every cosmetic issue it has could be fixed for under a grand according to the pricing I've done, which would make it nearly mint. It's a gorgeous looking, rare car. I will list every little thing I can possibly think of that is wrong with it. It is a manual transmission (5spd) and I replaced the clutch and slave cylinder 2 years ago which cost me $1400. I am the fourth owner, have clean title in hand. There are no dents or scratches. There is no rust on the body because the body is all plastic or fiberglass. The frame has minimal surface rust compared to most I've seen. I only drive this car once every two weeks or so, and I'm only selling it for room. I don't need the money, and I'm not desperate. I'm really more interested in cash than trades, though I will consider interesting ones. The car has power windows and locks and mirrors which all work. The radio and all speakers work. The pop up headlight motors work, which is semi-rare. Tread is good on the tires. I will list everything wrong with it now.

Paint-90% of the car is shiny and beautiful. The one portion around the sunroof and windshield pillars is starting to crack. And there is one small section on a piece of body molding on the driver's door that has chipped away as well. You don't see any of this unless you're close.

Window outer weather stripping-the window seals on the outside work fine but are cracked and ugly in my opinion.

Sunroof-(btw I have an extra sunroof) the seal around the sunroof needs to be replaced which is cheap. It doesn't leak but it's warped and will leak someday if not fixed.

Rear deck-the springs are worn out and the deck has to be propped. The seal that goes around the inner trunk is starting to rip and eventually will need replacing.

Interior-The interior is almost perfect except the seats. The drivers seat is torn up badly and there's a rip in the passenger seat. The rest of the interior is clean and beautiful. The seats need to be reupholstered or replaced. My leather guy said $300 for vinyl or $500 for leather. Craigslist and ebay have seats for anywhere from $50-150 usually.

Speedometer-The speedometer goes crazy. The needle goes back and forth and doesn't work properly. I bought the car this way and never bothered fixing it. The tach and all other gauges work properly. My mechanic did a diagnostic and said it's just a bad gauge.

A/C-worked when I bought it but blows warm now. Needs a recharge. But windows down works great and the sunroof lifts right out and can be stored under front hood.

Windows-The windows work fine but go down very slowly. It's been this way since I bought it 4 or 5 years ago.

Misc-The steering wheel shaft wiggles a bit and has some play. My mechanic said it's not worth it to fix and doesn't affect how it drives. He stated that it's a simple problem to fix, but complicated to take the whole thing apart.

Driver's door-for some reason the key won't open the driver's door, only the passenger door. So I've always had to open that one and hit the unlock button from that side. I've never gotten it checked out, because I didn't care about it much.

I think that's about it. The battery has been replaced recently. Oil has been changed every 2500-3,000 miles. Goes down the road great. It's like a little go cart for the road. I love this car, but I have 2 kids now and no space for both this and my motorcycle. I purchased it for $3,800 4 years ago with 62k on it and only has 76k on it total now. Then I had to stick $1,400 into it, so whoever can come up with the dang money is getting a deal.

My name is Jon. You can contact me via text or call any time on my cell which is 215.888.5129 or use the e-mail on here.  Thanks for looking. Any questions let me know.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Watch as Hot Rod goes from El Paso to LA the hard way

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

There are few things simultaneously more romantic and idiotic than taking a road trip in a beaten-down heap of a car. Trust us. We know. David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of Hot Rod Magazine fame recently undertook an epic trip from El Paso, Texas to Los Angeles with the express goal of doing so for under $1,500, including the purchase price of a vehicle, food, lodging, repairs and, most importantly, fuel. With this in mind, the duo settled on a 1972 Pontiac Catalina for a lofty $650. Hilarity ensues.
Realizing that no one actually wants a Catalina sulking around the shop, Freiburger and Finnegan put the car up for auction on eBay Motors the instant they had the title in hand. By the time they rolled into Hot Rod HQ, the vehicle sold for a little over $500.
The video is part of a new series called Roadkill that should document similar adventures. Keep your eyes peeled for more calamity-soaked clips in the near future. In the meantime, hit the jump to check it out yourself.

GM expands ignition switch recall to over 1.3 million cars amid climbing death toll

Tue, 25 Feb 2014



588,000 Saturn Sky, Saturn Ion, Pontiac Solstice and Chevy HHR models join the 778,000 cars already being recalled.
General Motors has announced a massive expansion of a 778,000-unit recall we told you about two weeks ago, doubling not only the total number of cars affected but expanding the recall beyond Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models previously mentioned. The recall originally centered around ignition switches that could slip out of the "run" position if jostled or if any weight was applied to the key in the cylinder.
