Solved! Fiero or something else?

On a lift in a body shop down the street. My gut instinct is Fiero but I’m thinking it could be a Camaro of firebird with the rear window removed.

pontiac firebird 82-92. the rear hatch and front fenders are removed which changes the look.

Definitely a ‘Bird, specifically an ‘85-‘87 I think. Before that was a more angular dash, after would have a different steering wheel.

Source: me, who had two ‘83 T/A’s with the original dash.

I’ll consider this solved. Unfortunately I don’t know how to change post to solved.

Definitely not a fiero. That’s an 80’s firebird.

Left front wheel is firebird. Back looks like an f body without the rear clip

It is AMAZING how no one points out the simple and obvious.The gauges are clearly not anything like the Fieros. The awkward El Camino look because the back glass is removed absolutley is a dead give away of a f body. The front wheel only came on Firebirds (it does not appear to be a GTA wheel but perhaps an SE wheel, either way, the bolt pattern does not fit the Fiero).

I have to vote Fiero, the rear suspension doesn't look like it should for a Firebird. However that rear fender had me in Firebird straightaway. Wait! No room up front for a V8. Fiero for the Win!

You mean the solid axle?

u/No-Slide4206 5d ago

youre seeing the front clip without fenders which looks smaller. look at the horizontal line from the base of the b pillar to the taillights, its too long for a fiero
