Saw your ad on CL and FB.
What's up with the radiator and heater core? Clogged? Leaking?
What about the A/C? Has it ever been converted to R134?
Is there any rust underneath or in the trunk?

Is the title in your name?

Would you mind posting a VIN for a Carfax?

Thanks!

Thanks for your questions.

Re Radiator and heater core - there are leaks in both areas but I haven't traced it.
AC is original R12 (not converted).
This car is rust free. NC title is in my name.
I will post the VIN in a few days - I don't have access to it right now.

Thanks for your response. Sounds interesting.

Now the kicker...
I know you're trying to thin the herd, but might you be interested in an Automoda convertible conversion as a trade?
It's an 84, but it only has ~20K on the odo, and its general condition reflects that.
It was purchased, not running. It runs now, but not well. That will be rectified within a few days.
(It's an SD4, and the Dellorto carbs are all whacked up. I'm temporarily replacing them with a small Holley, until I can rebuild them properly.)

I would prefer to sell/trade it as a roller, but will sell it intact, and running, as well.
If I sell it outright, I may still be interested in yours if it hasn't sold.

There's an ad posted here, in this section. (About 8 items down from the top. Not going to "bump" it, in consideration of the others.)

I also posted one on Pennocks.

The Automoda looks AWESOME. At another point, I'd be interested but not now. I need less rolling stock and the fun car has to go so sale only. :-(

Maybe I can get to see the Automoda sometime. I may be exiting the Fiero world but I will always love them in their various incarnations.

thanks for asking…

Here's the VIN:

1G2PE1198JP202200

The vehicle has been stored and not registered since 2005. It was last inspected in NC in March, 2005. Not sure how much data there will be. I've owned it since 1990.
