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




What kind of car is this?
For a minute it looked like the usual GM DOHC V6, and then I did a double take.
Now I can't even say for sure that it's a GM, although that loose connector looks like GM. Sorta.

not sure, it was in the gm section though.





oh yeah, pull-a-part is a cash for clunkers junkyard. so they had some newer there, you just take the block, cylinders, and i think the frame. the newest car i saw was a 2000 explorer

just curious, i love to go to the pull-a-parts and i was wondering if maybe we go on a pull-a-part run some time in between meeting dates. drive the fiero's ,line up 2 or 3 or 4 yards to visit(need to check ahead to make sure they have some fiero's) if we could the distances reasonable between yards. we could stop somewhere and have some lunch and continue on. might be something different to try if anyones interested. maybe someone would volunteer to drive a pick-up in case of bigger parts.         oldone in c'ville

After checking the pull a part site it looks like a C4C Fiero just hit the yard on the 19'th.

It would have to be a V6 automatic, because that's the only kind of Fiero that qualifies for CFC. The drive train won't be available. But you know, for example, that the shift surround will be for an automatic.

I'm going to go check it out. Hopefully I'll snap a few photos and post them later today.

If anyone sees this and is looking for a specific part feel free to call me at six seveneight six fourtwo two zero-nine six.

I did not get a chance to bring my camera but the C4C fiero looks to be in much better condition and is much more complete than the 2m4 posted previously. It is an 86 GT.

The air filter canister/top/baseplate look flawless and show no signs of rust at all. If I recall correctly the drivers side sail panel was actually in pretty good condition with only very minor cracking.

TopNotch, If you're still looking for white map pockets this one has ones without stains or smudges.

How about the condition of the whole interior door panels? And did it have power windows? Charlie was looking for some.

Dont remember if it had power windows or not. I dont think the drivers side door panel would be usable. The other fiero on the junkyard had better ones.

I meant to say, "power rear view mirrors". Did it have those?

Nope, it had manual.

The linkage to adjust the mirrors with the knob on the interior was functional but the glass had come loose on them.

Andy, the EGR hose was gone and so was the upper intake, EGR valve and solenoid, distributor, fuel rail and injectors and the headlights.  Someone disassembled the headlights and left the motors and mounts, but got the rest.  They could have gotten all of it for the same price.  Spare tire has never been on the ground. 

Car only had 103,000 miles with none of the factory recalls done.  Ray and I went down to check out the Fiat for Alfa Seltzer and a few other cars, and when we got back, the instrument panel was gone. 

See my post in Jam Cliche' 's post W'rectum for more info.

Seth, I'll call you about the Fiat.

3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

It probably has the weather strip on the rear deck, if the recalls weren't done. Somebody should get that.
