had no idea there were so many of us. I've got a 91 WS-6 T/A convertable,Red w/ tan interior.and a 87GTA(t top)built for race.
Also good to see this isn't the type of crowd that lists a bottle of oil treatment as a "modification".

Hi All,
I agree it is great to have all of these vert owners in one place. I have also recently found TGO. I have a 91 RS Black w/gray int just put a new top on it. getting ready to upgrade the radio and speakers without cutting anything and adding some LED's to the interior....really just started playing.
Have a great Day!

I am new to this board. I recently bought a 1987 IROC convertible, new 350, shows 35k on the odometer. I am sure that it is 135,000. The paint, top, seats, tires are in excellent condition. Factory options include, A/C, pdl, pw, p-drivers seat. The engine bay is clean enough to eat off of. I am wondering what it might be worth. My wife likes the car, but is begging me to sell it and get a Jeep. Any ideas on the worth???

DakotaSLT, thanks for the advice. You might have something there. I am torn. I love the way the ROC looks, and drives. I bought it from a car collector/service manager at a local Chev dealer. He was focusing on some 62 SS impalas and the ROC was just sitting. He's the one who put in a new engine, added a new steering wheel, new exhaust, after market eagle alloys, brakes etc....The car is in really remarkable condition for 20 years old. Hence, my reluctance to sell it. The problem is that I only have room for one car in my garage. I refuse to let it sit outside. It is just too pretty. What to do..........

Hey thanks for the warm welcome...... It is really great to be here.... I bought some H4 headlight conversion kits, a wiring harness, a streetwires fuse block, some 6ga wire, the clear parking lights, and a bunch of bulbs. There are so many great ideas on here....now I just have to decide how to mod the tails....lol

Thanks for the compliment....needs alot of work.....I believe the wheels are original. I have just enjoyed driving her on nice days for many years. Now I have the mod bug, but want to keep things bolt on so I could go back to original in the future. Enjoy the family, they are too soon gone from our lives.....
