Pics of my old Iroc

Found these pics of my old 1988 Iroc Z with a 350 TPI motor.

I bought this car earlier this year and had it for 3 months and had to much trouble with over heating on it plus it needed paint and I decided to sell it. Now I miss the car. LOL

Pics of when I got her.






This is what she looks like today. The guy that bought her from me did some work on her and is planning on repainting her next year. She looks sad with all the splotches. But her clear coat was peeling bad.

Uggh, looks like sketchy body work. I never understood why some people primered spots of their car way before it was going to be painted. I would rather leave the car one color, it looks hillbilly-ish with the spray bomb primer spots. It's better to do it once and do it right.

Yeah, it looked nice, but IMO your current ride is way nicer. Of course, though, I am a Pontiac man myself. Show some good pics of the TA.
