Craigs List Find: 1988 Camaro

http://swmi.craigslist.org/cto/2665464877.html

EDIT: $1700, in case I was supposed to list a price for this.

I would love to ad this to my stable if I could talk the wife into it, which I don't see happening. Figured I'd post it up on here because he can't seem to get rid of it. I talked to him today via text message and he says it has a clean title. He also says the mileage is correct, which I'd have to see to believe.

Hopefully someone on here can pick this beauty up and get her cleaned up.

I saw this on CL too. Not a bad price for the car. Would need some work to make it tight but its not too far off. I agree...mileage is suspect.

Re: Craigs List Find: 1988 Camaro

I'm going out on a limb here and saying it's only an RS. My reasons, Wrong grille, wrong rims, wrong tail lights, and wrong hood. Oh, that and the ground effects say Camaro and not Z28. It's just an RS IMHO. Sounds like he's trying to sell it as something it isn't. Or someone went through the trouble to swap all those parts to make it look like an RS. (I can't recall ever seeing a Black and Gold schemed IROC)

I don't remember seeing that scheme in an IROC either but I've seen that scheme in earlier than 88 model Camaro's. Still, I think it's worth the money if everything said about it is accurate.

Re: Craigs List Find: 1988 Camaro

I'd be cautious, of it needing a screw driver to be started. Sounds fishy to me.

Same reasons. I think it's a camaro as well. Spoiler is wrong as well.

Re: Craigs List Find: 1988 Camaro

For all the confusion. It NOT a z28, or a iroc. And its Not a RS either.
Its a Sport Coupe. In 1988 The sport coupes came with ground effects. They didnt have the "RS" badgeing untell 1989. Also the spoiler is CORRECT. In 1988 ONLY on the sport coupes ONLY came with that spoiler.
