Very Cool! Beautiful Car. Just curious, how long ago did they take pics and info. I know sometimes they hang on to those things for months and even years before they're run.

Very cool. I commend you for keeping it stock. I just can't seem to do that for any car actually.

While it 'appears' to be a nice car, this post has nothing to do with A&D.
If you wish to sell it, post it in the classified.
Sorry

Very nice. Although I've never owned and IROC I do think their friggin sweet. That is the goal of my current project. Either make it into Camaro Performers or Chevy Performance...or maybe even GM Hi-Tech. What issue is that?

...or maybe even GM Hi-Tech.
You mean "LS1 Hi-tech" ???

Sorry, couldn't resist!

Bump for a killer car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
----------
.....what color is that? SOM, if I remember, right? ....what made you go with the non factory yellow and silver? Not that it looks bad at all, but with everything else SO OE lookin' I figured you'd have chosen black and silver.

Yes, it's Sunset Orange Metallic. The stripes are the original colors that came on the car.
Thanks for the compliments.

What was the original color????

Ahhhhhhh, it WAS white, wasn't it??? I think I remember talkin' about this several months ago!!!

Yes, found it. On July 19, 2004 I posted:
Whiite with the silver and yellow pins is one of the rarest Iroc combos. Worth something? ...probably not, but it's got a certain coolness factor.

I'd leave it!


You didn't, but somehow I think the car came out alright!!!
