The Zimmer Motorcars Corporation was founded in 1978. The cars produced by Zimmer are referred to as neo-classics, as they took a modern car from the time period, upgraded the interior and redesigned the body to feature 1920s and 30s styling cues. From 1984 to 1988 Zimmer offered the Pontiac Fiero-based Quicksilver. The company achieved great success through the mid-1980s. The success however was short lived as the company filed for bankruptcy in 1988. The company was later revived in 1997, and one can still order a Zimmer today.
This 1986 Zimmer Quicksilver is presented in red with accenting chrome trim. The car rides on thin whitewall tires mounted on chrome wire wheels. Additional exterior features include pop-up headlights and dual exhaust. The Quicksilver is powered by a 2.8-liter, 140-hp V-6 engine which is paired to an automatic transmission. Power equipment on the car includes power windows, steering and brakes. The interior is completed in red leather featuring bucket seats, console and radio. This Zimmer is number 36 of 170 manufactured.
