Coming out of the wood work in AR
« on: July 21, 2011, 07:59:53 PM »
Seems to be more Eagles being spotted in Arkansas (and in my area) than there was not so long ago. On my trip into a nearby town today to gather sundries I first spotted just the rear roof (as it was a good sized hill and the direction we were going and how the lot it sat on was much lower than the road) of this and yelled "Eagle" about scared the boyfriend, I turned around in my seat to see if I could get a better glance but all I could see by then was the side rear glass. On our way back (also a better angle for a view) I snapped this picture...

We had already made our mind up to stop and take a better look...




76k miles on it, looks to be pretty nice. Was at a used car dealership. But with a 110 degree heat no dealer came out nor did we go in.

And just for kicks I have to add what else I seen at Wally world and got a good laugh over...

Not sure. Was planning on looking up the auto dealers phone number when I got home, but turns out it's not listed in there. I might have to go by an find out sometime.  If anyone is interested in this Eagle and wanting to know anymore or get the dealers number, PM me.

Believe it or not those little fieros were a hoot to drive...but back to the Eagle....The leather looks to be in pretty good shape. Were ya able to get a peek at the underside? If the price is right that car would make for a great daily driver or even a resto project....Egg-cellent find ;D

It was pretty darn clean from the peek I took. But it wasn't a thorough look as it being 110 degree's today doing much of anything was pretty torturous lol, plus had some food in the car that needed to get home.

Yea, Fiero's are pretty nice. Almost bought one years ago. And if the air tunnels actually work, then it isn't a bad set-up on this one.
