Junkyard Find: 1986 Pontiac Fiero

For some reason, I haven't photographed any junkyard Fieros for this series before today (though I have photographed an incredibly detailed full-back Fiero tattoo, and Sajeev has written about this 3.8-swapped Fierrari), but this extremely yellow '86 in Northern California caught my eye a few months back.

In the alternative-universe scenario put forward by GM's marketers, Fieros driven by attractive young women were so numerous that hitchhikers could afford to wait for a Fiero GT, or at least one with a V6.
