i have a 1987 camaro, http://www.cardomain.com/member_page...age_id=254127, pictures can be seen at that site, and i was just wondering, if anyone has seen that stripe kit on a camaro, and how rare was it to come like that?? im really curious, cause i have never seen one like that, if you have seen one like that and/or have pictures, please post, i would really appreciate that! thanks

 

Welcome to the boards 87z28camaro,
Looks like a custom stripe job. No thirdgen came from the factory like that. Nice t'top Z though. You need to polish your rims that will make em stand out. Oh you have a comma on the end of your hyperlink, you can go to his web page here

Crap I didnt attach the polished rim pic.

 

85SportCoupeto89RS, are stock rims? did you polish them the way the tech article says to do it? i've yet to touch mine...

 

Yep they are stock rims. I dont polish stuff like the tech article say's I use power tools and a becnh grinder with polishing wheels and compounds to polish my stuff. Its a whole lot eaiser and you wont turn blue in the face hand sanding your rims.

 

Hey thanks for the info, the guy before me that has owned it since new said he bought it new like that, so i was just wonderin if maybe it was a dealership special they had out or something the dealership added on?? could that be?? and yea, i need new rims bad, i mean the paint on mine are nice and need to be polished of course, but i want something that is shiny and chrome, but its hard to keep the car clean livin on a gravel road , thanks for your reply, Bigz

 

I know what you mean by not living on a paved road. 4miles of dirt to get to my house and another 4 to make it back to the highway. Its possible that it could have been done at the dealership. Can you tell if your car has been repainted before?

 

hey, im goin by what the guy said, it has been repainted bout a year ago, by the owner, and the guy said he painted it the exact same color as when he pulled it out of the dealership, stripes and everything, so im thinkin of concluding that the dealership added it on to stand out and sell better, thats my guess??

 

Well since you say he had it since new then I guess he had it custom striped then.

 

im pretty sure that no camaro, that i know of, came with stripes like that, and personally i dont really like it, but to each his own i guess! its a nice car though!

oh i noticed on cardomain.com or whatever it is, you said you wanted to paint the car black correct? what color is the interior?

(red i assume )

 

its red and black, mostly black, i like the striped because its unique, very uncommon lol, and i like that in a car, you know?

 

i think it looks damn sharp like that...i'm all about cars looking different so long as they don't look ugly too...that car is a perfect example of how to look good and stand out...

 

thanks, the car wasnt a bad deal at all, came with a tpi 305 bored .30, new paint job, new interior, rebuilt engine, and only for 2,500, couldnt beat that, i talked the guy down from 4000 to 2,500, he sure needed the money, i've had it for about a year, and have had NO problems, yet, i dont want to jinx myself lol,
