1986 Zimmer Quicksilver 2.8 V6 Automatic. Number of doors: 2 Fuel type: petrol Year of manufacture: 1986 Transmission: automatic Colour: red Number of cylinders: 6 VAT/VAT Paid: VAT paid Registration: USA title and customs handled, all EU import duties paid A Zimmer is a real rarity in the world and this car is now being offered in Europe as 1 of the few examples driving around here. The car was built on the basis of a Pontiac Fiero and thus also has the V6 mid-engine with an automatic gearbox behind it. A Fiero manual also comes with the car. According to internet sources, 170 Zimmers were built in Syracuse New York, and of course, far fewer remained. There is a registry online with more info on the car and especially its history. The car drives, brakes and steers, but could use some finishing touches. The paintwork is in fair condition and has some imperfections here and there (scratches). The bodywork is made of plastic and does not rust. The interior is in a clean condition and the chrome also has some age-related signs of wear here and there. There are no periodic vehicle inspection regulations in the US, this is the reason why driving home in this car is definitely not recommended. Currently, the power steering does not work and some other things need to be fixed. Therefore, the Zimmer still needs some technical work. As the car is based on a Pontiac Fiero, many parts are interchangeable with this type of car. Info from Wikipedia: Zimmer Motorcars Corporation was established in 1980 as a manufacturer of neoclassic automobiles. The idea for this automobile was initially drawn on a napkin at a private dinner between Paul Zimmer, chairman and President of Zimmer Corporation and Robert 'Bob' Zimmer, Paul Zimmer's son, employee and shareholder of the company. Paul Zimmer drew what was to become the Golden Spirit on a napkin, handed it to Bob Zimmer and told him that not only were they going to build a neoclassic automobile, but that the younger Zimmer would be responsible for all functions of the operation and ongoing supervision of Zimmer Motor Cars Corporation. By 1982, Bob Zimmer had become the president of Zimmer Motor Cars Corporation. At its peak in the 1980s, Zimmer Motor Cars Corporation had 48 dealers in 28 states,[3] employed 175 people and generated $ 25 million in annual revenue. The second Zimmer Motor Cars Corporation product was the mid-engined Pontiac Fiero-based Quicksilver which was built between 1986 and 1988. The Quicksilver is a two-seat personal luxury car designed by former General Motors designer Don 'D.A.' Johnson. Each Quicksilver was constructed from a new Fiero donor car, which was dismantled and structurally modified at the Zimmer factory by adding a 13-inch section behind the rear wheels and an additional 16 inches just behind the front suspension. Power steering, which was not available on the Fiero, was added by Zimmer. The Fiero bodywork was replaced by a new fibreglass body with dramatic new styling with a long, sloping nose and pop up hidden headlamps. Large chrome front and rear bumpers were manufactured in Taiwan and plated in Florida. The redesigned interior was trimmed in leather and wood, and the new body had increased luggage space in the front and rear. The Fiero Vehicle Identification Number was retained as it met all the required US safety features at the time and while Zimmer sold the vehicles on their own Manufacturer's Certificate of Origin, depending on the jurisdiction in which the vehicle was first registered, it may have been titled as a Zimmer QuickSilver or a Pontiac Fiero. The retail price of the Quicksilver in 1986 was $ 51,950. Relive old times with this rarity from the 80s! In addition, it is also a great investment with good future returns. The car can be viewed and picked up in Appingedam, the Netherlands. #MostWantedCarsMotorcycles
