My "Girls" all together (83, 87, 95)

I don't know why I didn't post these back in August when I took them...but who knows. I helped organize a car show in a small town just outside Ottawa...so I decided it would be the perfect time to show off my girls. It was the first time I've had them all together in public. Was a pain in the *** getting them there, but the thumbs up and comments all day made it worthwhile. Last pic is from home base sometime in September.


Anyways, hope you enjoy. Hoping to add a 2nd Gen to the pictures next year.

Nice collection! I like the '83 Z28 too, one of my favorite colors, but you need bright sunlight for it to really shine.

Re: My "Girls" all together (83, 87, 95)

Hi all, I wanted to update this thread as I just participated in an indoor show here in my home town (Ottawa). There hasn't been one here in close to 10 years I think...so a lot of people were glad to see it back...myself included.

You can check out the whole gallery here - http://www.spd-kilz.com/gallery/2013...om_carshow.htm. Or just look down for pictures of my 83, 87, and 95. Enjoy boys and girls.

Nice clean examples. Fantastic! I wouldn't mind an 83 with an upgraded drivetrain. What color red on the IROC-Z?

I wouldn't either, but with 20,000 miles, original paint (and everything else for that matter) I won't be touching it. I did just order a set of old school looking chrome rims though...but am keeping the originals for "show duty"...I just like chrome.

The 87 is your normal bright-red. It has been resprayed though, modern base/clear makes it much more shiny!!!

Good idea keeping the Z28 all original.

So that's not the original code bright red used on the IROC-Z correct?

Honestly have no clue as I bought it this way. It is NOT the original paint, but it is my understanding they did use the right code. I had the hood redone in 2011 by a local GM Dealer, and I instructed them to use the original colour for the year and it matches very well. It could just be the camera playing tricks...

I wish I had a before picture though, I'm pretty sure I bought the only PINK IROC in all of Canada...spent about 2 weeks bringing it back to life as it was heavily faded. I get compliments on it everywhere I go now...even though I wish to respray eventually (it was a cheap job, they didn't even remove the emblems/panels, just masked it all off and it shows up close. But she's a good 5-10 footer.

Forgot the picture I took of them lined up ready to go from home.



I'm picking up the new rims and tires for the 83 on Monday or Tuesday, will post some new pictures when I get them on.
