My new custom made IROC t-shirt
I thought i'll show you my new t-shirt that i just got today from printing.
I was searching on ebay for Iroc t-shirts and there really aren't any good ones so i decided to make my own with help of my sister that knows how to use photoshop.
What do you think?

Here's one with my car on it. I didn't design it, but I think it's cool that my car is on GM Officially Licensed products.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
I get nothing. And no, they didn't ask me for a picture either.
I was at a car show a few years back and a GM apparel truck was there. I saw the shirt and bought one! I then called the company on the following Monday to let them know that was my car on their shirt. They said they were given access to the GM Media Archives for any and all pictures to create the licensed shirt. I was told that none of the 3rd gen pictures gave them what they wanted. A web search brought them to a picture of my car, so they used it.
They were concerned that I was calling to complain, but in all reality, I think it's cool that my car is on a tshirt. It's a hobby, not a business, so I wear the shirt to car shows now. I gave them access to any and all images of my car that they want to use for future projects. They created a banner as a thanks.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
IIRC, he could tell due to the reflections/lighting on the car along with the wheel orientation.
Nice design klein.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
I wasn't going to show the original picture and take away from the original post, but I will now. I knew it when I saw it, because I took the picture and have a 24x40 of it framed in my "man cave". Also, there aren't many out there still donning the rear window louvers. Once I saw a burgundy shirt with an IROC-Z, I was sold on the shirt, but then when I saw it up close, I knew it was mine.

Sweet ride Scott....I want one of those shirts too. Would be cool to have that Laid Back Garage banner put onto a t shirt.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
Thanks everybody, now all i need is real IrocZ...
I am from Europe(Slovenia) and just went to check one yesterday...its black '86 with 350 and automatic but it needs some suspension work - its really floaty/all over the road to drive and also it needs body work...I need to think about this before buying it. Price is around 6000 EUR or 6700 USD.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
Be careful if they are listing the car as original. There weren't 350s in Camaros in 1986. It's either a transplant to a 350 or it's a 305. Just be aware of that.

Re: My new custom made IROC t-shirt
It is a transplant from another car, it has carb and different intake. In original it was 305 car, i don't know what the rear axle is but it feels like long gears and it has drums.
Here is the ad...
http://www.avto.net/_AVTO/oglas.asp?...5&show=1&avto=
The engine runs perfect, transmission is perfect...
But it does float a lot around the road, very hard to keep it in lane.
I have driven a 87 305 5 speed camaro a few years ago and it was very direct and nice to drive.

[QUOTE=RedLeader289;5926361][QUOTE=UltRoadWarrior9;5926351]An IROC is not 'floaty'.
Clearly the one he's looking at is, haha.
He was talking about the car he is inquiring about, not making a general statement about the genre lol. What I meant was, that if it doesn't steer correctly, it may have very excessively worn steering parts and to have them checked out before the purchase.
