This bar was also available on early (Nov - Dec 84) 1985 TPI cars with WS6 package. I got mine back in 1987 from a guy who had a very early 1985 car with this combination. He was the original owner and I was able to measure it with a micrometer to verify it.

How about 1987 GTA padle style mirrors? :hail:

Basically it's just a clock only came in early 82-85 cars only available on z28 & SC's no Berlinettas had them.

Even after they stopped producing them the mounts are still in the console on 86-89 cars (not sure about 90-92) they just wern't used anymore.

They usually fetch around $50 on ebay.

I have one but I think its from 89 or 90 cause the lettering is white.
My 92 Z28 is an original CD player car (RPO U1C) but by the time it got to me it had one with white letters in it.
I replaced it with one from a 4th gen.
I can upload some pics if anyone is interested.
