Looking for an Iron Duke, any leads?
Hey guys, looking for an Iron Duke Camaro or Firebird. Prefer a stick. Any leads on one locally?

Well, there's gotta be one in this area somewhere. Maybe even a really dusty one which was parked in aunt Betty's garage circa 1988.
I've found a couple around the country, but they're $600 beaters, hardly worth shipping hundreds or thousands of miles.

Re: Looking for an Iron Duke, any leads?
saw one a long time ago in the hammond pick n pull, doubt the car would still be there. Why would you want it though?
think s10 pickups also got the same motor along with a few other GM vehicles if you were looking. The gas mileage isn't any better than the v6 though if that's what you're thinking

When I was 16 I had one. It was my first firebird. I blew up the engine and sent it to the scrap yard. Ive been regretting it ever since.

As crazy as it sounds, I've got an itch to get one. If it's got steel wheels and dog dish hubcaps - so much the better.

Re: Looking for an Iron Duke, any leads?
ahhh when i use to own my body shop they brought it up to us to see how much to paint it. It did have alot of rust but could be fix. The last time I saw it would need a 1/4. If you take 394 to stager RD make a left than go to sheffield make a right go all the way down about 2 miles to the stop sign than look to your right the house right before the stop sign is were it always sits.. But I have not been down that way for about 3 months so I do not know if its still there.

Do you remember if it was a stick or auto?
