I guess you're talking about the North Yard?  There isn't much left of them.  There's an 84, 85, and 86.  The 85GT may still have a starter and alternator with alternator bracket on it.  The engine's been stripped.  But, if you don't want them and can get the valve covers off it, I'd take them.  It had a 4-speed tranny and cables in it, last I saw.  The shifter's gone, but I think the 84 still has the 4-speed shifter. 

I've got fuel pump issues with my car and I need to get that resolved.  Can't make the trip with you.

the trip wasn't too sucessful, for me anyway. i found a radio bezel that was in ok shape. the bolt holes were not broke, but it needs to be painted. and I found some vents, some of mine are broke.but that's about it

charlie, the 2.8l no longer had the valve covers on it.

i was hoping to find a diamond in the ruff in the form of good engine (fat chance i know), found some potenial but no luck.

Yeah, that 85 had 171,000 on it.  You said you were looking for some interior parts.  What do you need?  I have a couple of consoles, a radio surround, a couple of radio face plates, A and B pillar trim and the right side lower sill trim.

Someone on Pennock's said one of the cars is a t-top car. How much, if any, of the t-top parts are left. Anything would be valuable -- little plastic pieces or whatever.

If it's a manual and the shift surround isn't separated and buckled and the radioi surround isn't separated and buckled, I'll take them if you don't need them.  If it has power mirrors, I'll take the right one.

so the fiero in the lot is a red(repainted from what i can tell) 2m4 manual, tilt and a/c. unfortunately, for me, that means there was not much I could use. i did take the radiator overflow tank 'cause mine has a broken tab. the car is in pretty good shape. i forgot bring my digitl, but had my cell phone, on to the pics:

all the body panel are straight and good shape except the front bumper. it looked warped. the quarter windows were cracked. if that GTA sitting beside it had all 4 wheels i would have walked with them


missing all the reflectors


the headlights in the up position is a pretty good indication that the motors are shot. and they wouldn't go down manualy


all 4 wheels are there and look ok, i took the intake grill hardware(lost mine)


all the interior pieces that are there are ok. it's missing a passenger seat, console, and ecu. i thought about taking the dash, it's all black and mine is 2tone


the headliner looks good, sagging just above driver and passenger heads though. i tried to get the map light housing but i didn't have my star bits


door panels are decent, that's the trunk carpet in the seat location. has gonna take the trunk carpet, but mine has the blower


i've never seen this before


the engine is missing some stuff


77056.6 on the clock


gas tank is gone


oil pan is damaged


a couple pictures of the VIN. the 1st character is "G" the last one is "1" or "I"



here is some the other stuff i thought were pic worthy:



what are these seats from? look alot like fiero seats


here is the answer: cutlas Calais 500


not a sticker, very detailed paint job. i wasn't surprised to see a lift kit on it

oh yeah, if you need to open the trunk on that fiero, you will need a long flat screwdriver. the lock has been pulled
