You gotta hear this story.

Me and my friend were restoring an '83 crossfire Z28. It was carbed, and it needed a lot of parts for the car. We pulled the engine and tranny, and were parting out this other Trans Am that was at the place we were at. Anyways, while me and my friend were taking some stuff off of the TA, I had to go take a ****. So, I went over to the fence line where it's wooded, and was doing my business. I was just lookin around and I spot an abandoned 3rd gen! So, my friends and I go to explore this find, and, come to find out, it was an '87 IROC! The body was pretty much trashed, but there were plenty of good engine and other parts. We took all the TPI stuff, a Hotchkis strut tower brace, and the big rear spoiler. Later we took the seats, the wheels, and some of the ground effects. It was amazing.
