MY FIERO!
Chuck Storey

 

The first time I saw it! I knew it . . . . .

IT WAS MY DREAM CAR!!!

It was Bright, it was Fast, it was Cool and it was YELLOW

It was the Car I had to have! It was my 1988 Yellow Fiero GT! Little did I know it would be "My Car", and a Car that I've come to know and appreciate for over 15 years!

With over 160,000 miles, my "Tweedy" was daily driven for 13 of its 15 years! With only 241 Yellow Fiero GT's in existence I feel lucky to own such a brilliantly crafted piece of machinery. I have always considered it My Baby, and have taken care of it so I could appreciate its beauty for as long as I could!

Purchased on August 5th, 1988 at Somerset Pontiac Troy, MI - I noticed the car from a distance and had to go in for a closer look. What I found was a life long companion that has been affectionately called, "Chucks Car".

The "Car" took 6 years to pay off, and I have never regretted for a moment keeping it!

Car has a permanent "Chirp" in the bushings/suspension. This is the reason, I've nicknamed it "TWEEDY"

Tweedy did not like the BAD INSTALLATION of an Alarm System installed by Quality Pontiac Dealership.

Tweedy was very HAPPY that I installed a Re-Built ENGINE January of 1999

Tweedy currently has 160,000 miles, with less than 200 on the new engine!

 

In 1988, there were 370,105 (total) Fiero's that came off the Factory Line.

In 1988, there were 1,166 YELLOW Pontiac Fieros made in production

(489 Coupes + 436 Formulas + 241 GT's).

 

My "'88 Fiero GT" is one of those 241's!!! only 240 other ones in the world!

 

There was only ONE plant that manufactured Fiero's It was located in Pontiac, MI.
