(SORRY FOR THE BIG PICS)So what do you guys think? I finally got some good pics developed! I just got her in july after some dumbass on a dirtbike decided to total my black 86Z28 ! Well anyways, the IROC had something like 36,500 on the odometer when I put her away this winter. The guy I bought it from (the original owner) took REAL good care of it, in fact it never saw RAIN he said until the day I took it home. He wanted a new 2002 SS convertible so his loss is my gain I guess











Oh yeah, my mechanic (former mechanic now!) dented my intake runners, so I got them polished. Other than that she is pretty much stock. I am open for suggestions on things to do next too. I was thinking sub-frames and a strut-tower brace. Thanks for looking!!

 

Gorgeous car. I'd say get headers and a cat-back first. The car will hold up fine with those mods. Then get suspension. Maybe consider blackouts and nite shade.

 

Thanks Mark!! I will definately think about headers and an exhaust! I am gonna have to get my priorities strait this spring I guess?! It's gonna take time but she'll get there... Oh hey if anyone is interested here is my black Z that got totalled

 

Looks real sweet. Too bad about your old one, but at least your new one has an owner who will take good care of her.

 

If you don't mind me asking, how much does an '86 IROC with 36,000 miles sell for these days?

Oh, BTW, it looks great.

 

Very sharp looking car and finding them in such good shape is getting rarer. A shame about the black IROC but I have to ask, how does a dumbass on a dirtbike total out a car?

==============================================Rob

 

Very clean car, I love it.

 

Mirsiro427: I bought the IROC for $6,500 but it was between me and three other older guys. (But I was the only one who brought over pics of my other camaro!!!) So I won.... By the way I have admired your car and think it is absolutly awesome!! Way to keep it stock, and low on miles!!:hail:

My1stCamaro92RS: Well I was stopped on a 2way street, the ones with the double yellow in the middle at a stop sign. I was behind a truck who just turned left at the stop sign. So as soon as the rear view of that truck left my windshield, WHAM!!! This kid on a dirt bike in the other lane was going soooooo fast that he had to swirve to miss the truck. And he ended up totaling my car. Mind you I was COMPLETELY stopped! So he was really moving!! This kid left his bike in the middle of my engine compartment and he ended up like 25ft down the road. Lucky he was wearing his helmet or he was done. (I was about to kill him but he was already in alot of pain ) The other insurance company did give me $5000 for it though. It was gonna be like $3500 to repair and that was just the hood, 2 front fenders, grill, grdfx, etc... Not to mention the engine work on the old LG4, My battery was half way into my air cleaner and we couldnt open the hood without cutting it!!

 

Hey if I were to get a Hotchkis strut tower brace, should I go with the black one or the red one?? I dont know which one would go better with the Dark Red Metallic in the engine compartment?

 

A dirt bike totaled your car???

Wow, he must have been really moving. Sorry to hear that, atleast you got a new one that looks really good.

Not sure about the STB... try to match it as close as possible

 

***, that would have been scary as hell to witness. Would be cool to see it on video though...

 

Dumb$h!T on a dirt bike. Did you at least poke him with a stick? Oh yeah go with black.

 

hey bimma next time we ge a nice day around here,like those gorgeous days that we had sunday and monday,you should get in touch(either email or call me at 621-6551,ask for rich) with me and i can get some pics of your car with my digicam.if ya wanna see how good they turn out,go to the MORE PICS HERE link in my sig.some of those are pics i took with it.you can tell which ones are and which ones arent.and its a hella lot easier than paying and waiting for film to be developed!now lets just hope this friggin snow goes away!! :lala:
PS: Do you have an AIM s/n?if so IM me at rscruiser91,thats mine.

 

Thanks guys! Well now you all know my story! I cant wait till April now when she comes back out, damn pics

Oh hey Rich, yeah I would love to get in touch with another camaro owner! my number is 227-6884, but my car is covered at some elses house right now so I dont know about taking pics? I would love to see your ride in person!! Oh my AIM name is Bimma85. I have never changed it from when I had my old 85 camaro. See ya man!

 

The IROC looks sweet Mike.I cant wait till spring to polish the rest of your parts. I have my car in the shop, when ever I'm not at work I'm getting the car preped so I'll be able to paint it.I just have to take my hatch off, and sand the rest of the paint from the door jambs and the hatch area,and i will be able to put some primer on her. Ya need a digital camera Mike they are eaiser than waiting for film to get developed. I have a HP 215 dig camera with 1.3 Mega Pixels,it works good other than battery life. Talk to you later, Michael O

 

My GF has the 218 or something 2.1 MP, that thing eats batteries, I thought it was messed up. I have an older HP, and the batteries last a lot longer.

 

I'm gonna get an ac adaptor for the camera.IT cost 50.00 but I take lots of pictures with the camera so it would be worth it than spending tons of $ on batteries.

 

I'll post some pics with my camera when I get my comptuer back(it broke). I can't remember if I backed up before it crashed or not. so I may not have any.. but my post is really related to the horrible battery life by HP cameras. I have the HP 612, 2.1 Megapixels. it'll suck a set of coppertops dry in 50 pics with no flash and the LCD off.....

 

I am asking for a digital camera for my birthday, (hinting to my woman right now) But it would definately be easier that way. Hey Mike O, gonna have to show me some pics of your car when it's done!! It is gonna be awesome, especially with all the polishing done!
