Here is my camaro. the teal looks more blue at night its nice. im currently redoing the interior with a 4th gen trans am dash and heated leather audi tt seats. ill post pics when its finished in a few months lol. the rims look way better in person btw
is that the factory color?? very clean, looks like a bright teal color.....
nope, car was white, the original wanted it teal, cant get teal in 89 on a maro, so he striped down the car a sprayed it that shade of teal, its a paint thats very close to the teal that was used on the chevy trucks in the early 90's
Here's mine. 1992 originally teal, repainted with HOK Candy Teal on silver flake. This pic from the GM Nationals at Carlisle this year - just got the car back from paint and hadn't even gotten the emblems on yet.
I guess I'll add my hunk of s--- in to the mix ...

Not without a title you couldn't We bought it strictly as a parts car for the red IROC-Z. The red one has no interior and is missing some odds and ends parts like windshield wipers, the fuel tank was sumped, so we'll use the one from the teal car. We're doing another LS1 swap in the red car and we need a bunch of stuff from the teal one and we're parting out the rest of it.

What happened with the title? Lost? Stolen? Flood car? It looks to clean to be "totalled". What's the mileage on that car? I see a 305 in it does it run? I need parts
Hood, chin, grill, passenger fender, and nose . Oh, I got '86 Iroc-z T-tops in very good condition, I see the Iroc is a hardtop, but I need a 91-92 set in good condition... trade?
Too bad you are parting it... That's cleaner than mine when I first got it!!!

Car was repainted by original owner, but it desperately needs to be cut.
Amusingly, I dont have any pictures of the car aside from build photos, the most complete one missing the side lower trim...
It suprisingly a pretty nice colour under the interior too just a little more matte than the body.
Oh, found one from the OCC Nationals.
Love the colour - just a 'lil annoying to have someone walk up and tell you your car is 'pretty'
I dig the teal, but that color, along with the 92 Purple Haze almost always screams "RS" to me. Seems that there weren't a whole lot of Z28s made in those colors.

My 92 Z28 used to be teal until I got sick of it/wrecked the car. First off Im going to say the wheels that were on it needed spacers and at the time all I knew was that they didnt fit right. Also they were heavily pitted and reminded me of a hotwheels car so I got rid of them and picked up some stockers and painted them black. But I do have some black and chrome ZR1 wheels that are going on it now. You be the judge of which one you like, the new color is GM Atomic Orange which was painted by yours truely and yes it still needs reassembled, its getting a new engine at the moment so no time for that yet.

Heres the last pic i have of mine on a trailer headed for texas Spent about 3 days shining her up before it left, was our last time together
Kinda funny when i bought this car everyone made fun of the color and i actually hated it probably the first 2 years i owned it, but it grew on me i've actually been debating doing my bike the same color since i know how good it looks with billet
