My 1988 iroc-z hardtop

Here are some pictures i took today, the car is a bit dusty but it looks pretty good anyway.
The car was imported to Sweden from Florida in 1991 and has 61000 miles on it today.

Thats an extra turn signal, stupid law. They where installed after the car was imported to Sweden.
