Check out this 1984 Official Indianapolis 500 Pontiac Fiero Pace Car. Only 2000 pace cars were made out of the 137,000 models sold. Pontiac were given the opportunity to provide the pace car for Indianapolis 500 on four occasions. 1984 was one unique to the Pontiac brand bringing in an all new mid-engine Pontiac Fiero.

The Fiero is powered by the GM Pontiac, mid-mounted 2.5L, 151CID, incline 4 Iron Duke engine linked to the GM Turbo hydramatic 3 speed automatic transmission. Pontiac was able to sneak the sprightly Fiero into production as an economical runabout, borrowing heavily from GM’s economy car parts to deliver an affordable car to the buying public.

Interior is mated with grey leather bucket seats featuring red fleece inserts, embroided seatbacks and audio speakers embedded within the head seats. Equipment includes cruise control, air conditioning, power windows, door locks and a Delco cassette stereo equipped with a graphic equalizer.

The exterior on this example is finished in white (4OU) with medium grey lower cladding. Features of the Indy Pace car editions include the removeable pop-up sunroof, power side mirrors, a rear spoiler and unique badging. The SE trim for the Fiero included the WS-6 handling package featuring the 14” cast aluminium wheels finished in white.

1961 Nash Metropolitan

Joe's Golden Gasoline — Wed, 14 Oct 2020 02:15:38 +0000

Different but as I keep reading these reviews on them, car people seemed to absolutely love these little beasts. I present you our two-tone 1961 Nash Metropolitan. Looks like it could be used for a promo car for a little Italian restaurant or café but that’s just me. Under the hood is the 1490cc, 90.9 cubic, 1.5L, 4-cylinder engine coupled to a 3 on the tree “H” pattern manual transmission.

The two-tone beast is in a yellow and white colour combination, 2 door hardtop with glove box doors, seats (4 depending on the size of the people travelling in the vehicle) and the moulding/chrome are in great condition all polished up. Small automotive as well as an economical car. The car was styled by Battista “Pinin” Farina, and has the Fiat 500 chassis and running gear. This is a modern shape and defiantly stands out with the short wheelbase and long overhangs. It was an interesting car to drive that’s for sure. They were built in Longbridge, England and were shipped to the USA.

Reference down the bottom but a review from an automotive industry veteran and largest publisher of automotive books at the time, Floyd Clymer, took several Metropolitans through his tests. He abused the 1954 Metropolitan and got the surprise of his life with its performance which was far better than expected… He felt very safe in the car and said “the Nash started a new trend for the American Motoring Industry”.
