I'm not going to say I hate SC's, but I'm just not a big fan. One thing that CaysE and Burn EM! made me realize is that SC's look alot better with a set of 16 inch IROC wheels or 91-92 Z28/RS wheels , nice clean SC's we have on TGO it looks though..which is always good

it used to have black painted rockers and black painted mirrors, but it was repainted and those details were painted over. i'm not too sure what i want to do with it yet. either silver older style ground effects and a louvered hood or back to its origional state.

it's got a soiler back on it too, hope to get pics of that tomorrow.

hope to get the hood painted soon, but unfortunately, i don't see it happening for at least another month. but here are some new pics of the car, let me know what you think about it. the hood is a 3" Champion Fiberglass Products peice and looks ALOT like the cervini's hood.

Carlover01, sorry I didn't see your post above asking about my rim sizes. Rear rims are 15x8 w/4.5in backspacing, front are 15x7 w/ 4.5in backspacing. I also have some 4in wide rims for the front when racing.

mw66nova, for some reason I really liked the grid tails and no-spoiler combo you had going there. Looked really good.

82knightrider

iTrader: (1)

Nah,IMO it looks cooler with the spoiler,are you the same genopsyde from automotveforums.com?

the no spoiler deal only looked good from the rear, everywhere else it looked outta place, specially with the new hood.

Tobias05

Man! I'm in on this one late! When I was in the market for a 3rd gen, all I wanted was an 87 SC, believe it or not.

Bought an 87SC Lg4, threw in an awesome black interior, painted it "Viper Red" with gramps, free 300 mile tires, added spohn sfc's, and then a 350HO



future plans are an SS hood, 17 or 18 inch Zo6 rims with big fat kumhos, a t56 and 3.73's, and maybe a z highrise out back

*** I love Sport Coupes!

Anyone making custom SC badges?

mw66nova

iTrader: (13)

Tobias, that car is looking great! glad to see people so into the SportCoupes. i will be doing some things with decals/graphics/emblems, but i don't want to release any of my ideas just yet until they are done. a friend of mine has a decal machine at his house, so i will be working closely with him to get some cool badges made. i just bought some of the "camaro" emblems that go on the the side of the car, and i am looking into some different paint schemes for them. i will be out of commission for a little while though, i just got shoulder surgery on Friday morning, had to reconstruct the ligaments and cartlidge in my right shoulder, eh, whatever.

here are some interior shots of the car:



mmmmm, Percaset

i couldnt live with that.

oh ya sorry about the surgery

i have a tilt steering wheel, it's tilted up in that pic so i can get my big self out of the car.

Hmmmm.......I think it looked pretty cool without the spoiler. Don't get me wrong I like the lip spoilers camaros but It kinda had the "california camaro" look without the spoiler.

I like you SC. My bro used to own a SC camaro. Ive got an 84 bird without ground fx.

later,
bill


here's my bird and his camaro side by side.

CaysE

I did. I've been "de-building" my sport coupe with plans to sell it sometime this year. The clear sidemarkers are going on the RS.

double post

This is the best picture of my SC since my camera broke, but you can barely see how bad the paint really is (looks like its never clean, even after being washed). I bought it with the lower striping on it, and it looks like it has some other type of gray striping on it under the black ones. Its a cool look, but I am gonna get the whole thing black, except for the spolier which I think would look good silver. Even got the stock wheels still on it!

NEEDforSPEED

white belt and shoe laces and you would fit right in with the car

Tobias05

NO, NO CaysE, don't do it

...think of the family, the family...

NEEDforSPEED

ya man you gotta add on not put them up for adoption
look i even saved one by bring a new iroc home

82knightrider

iTrader: (1)

If you sell it youll be banned..lol

CaysE

LOL... I have little choice. The engine and trans are pretty much shot and I need something else to drive every day. I have the RS as my project car. If anyone wants a project Sport Coupe, let me know.

dual_88s

How about Sport Convertibles? They count?








BTW: It does have a new top on it now.....

87 convertible

heres my 87 sport coupe vert.

mw66nova

iTrader: (13)

you have one of the rarest thirdgens around! omg, i want that car!!!!

87 convertible

sad part is i had to make it my daily driver, i put 12 miles a day on it, the car does need a little work , the rear engine seal is leaking a little, and the rear deck lid could use repainting, on the bright side i put the top on my self last summer, first time ever fooling with a convertible top, and so far it has not leaked a drop.i have owned this car for 10 years and have thought about selling it.

mw66nova

iTrader: (13)

if you ever decide to sell it, please let me know!

billsfirebird

iTrader: (1)

call me ignorant....why would his car be the rarest one around?

I love that style convertible thirdgens. I don't like the early ones though, the "two seater ones...with the weird looking trunk...with what looks like gate hinges. Not a real good looking convertible conversion in my opinion.

dual_88s

because in 1987 there were only 263 Sport Convertibles produced. Not sure about the LT, but I'm betting that was an option that even limited the total number further

263 as opposed to my 88 sport convertible that had 1859 produced.....

Oh and the 2 seaters were typically done by a company other than ASC who was GM's 'official' chop shop.....seems like there was one in Illinois that was fairly popular....

And the post was "ONE of the rarest"......

87 convertible

i was told it was rare because of the rpo code 1 sd which is the LT convertible option package# 4. Back in 1987 this option alone cost $2376.00 . over two thousand dollars for 1 option ,reason i know how much it cost is ,i have the factory invoice.another interesting fact is most ,if not all the convertibles came with the stayfast canvas top, my car came with a standard black vinyl top.

heres a pic of my sc with gfx just washed it too lol

not having GFX can be offset by a good set of rims and a little lowering. On stock rims and tires, they often look like they are in a perpetual state of hydraulic jump. (just my opinion)

whitez406

iTrader: (5)

That conv. is SWEET! U should lower it with a nice pair of 17's that would look unbeleivable!

87 convertible

Thanks for the compliment, i think it would look good lowered to, but i am trying to keep it as stock as possable, i am actually looking for some stock gold berlinetta rims to put back on the car.

Sport Coupes catch a lot of flack, but I like em. My first Camaro was a 83 LG4 auto. I liked it, and I'd probably still have it except a kid rear ended me at a stop light. I got my 2.8L 84 Camaro dirt cheap from a tow yard... It was a beater but was fun to play with. I'd still like to do a serious Sport Coupe, but they're hard to find anymore.

Just imagine a stripped down, all business, Sport Coupe with a 350 TPI, good gears, 16" wheels, FE2 suspension... It'd be a bad *** car. Sort of a lighter, faster version of the Firebird Formula. It's too bad Chevy didn't build a bad *** Coupe.

here are my three. i added that third one because that was a car show i went to in june, it was my first car show and it was also 150 miles away( grandpa started it) out of 65 cars i came in second for best in show and missed first by 2 votes, 1 and i would have tied. 2 i would have won. anyways 86 sports coupe, pretty much built from the ground up.
