Hi guys, I have a story for you guys and maybe you can help me out. My best fried past away over the winter of cancer. Well he had a 87 vert black Iroc that has been sitting for about 5 yrs or so, I bought it from his wife for 500.00 dollars, I don't know alot about verts but I can tell ya this, its a 87, black with grey interior, tuneport 305, auto, it has rear disk brakes and has a posi, thats all I know about it so far. It needs a new top the window has a rip in it and it needs a good cleaning and scrubbing. I saved her from rotting away, I just hope I can het her back to tip top shape. I will post pics soon!!

 

Man that sounds like a good buy.I thought I got a good deal on mine for $600.It's a total piece of crap.In the process of trying to put it together now.Can't wait to see some pics.

 

Thanks, Its really dirty and I need to remove the interior and really clean it up good..The body is soild, no rust at all and I know its never been driven in the winter...

 

it'd be cool to restore it to factory and keep it in memory of your friend. maybe get a small, tasteful decal made and put it over the emblem on the pass. side of the dash.

 

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, and I wanna keep it all stock as much as possible..I will get some pics soon!! I am pretty excited about it, I am reading and learning alot on this site!! I still don't know alot about the car yet.

 

Sorry to hear about you friend . I live in carmel ny and if you are close mybe I can be of some help good luck .

 

Thanks I will def keep that in mind!!

 

Welcome. Sounds like you have a great project with that convertible.
Cost = $500.00. Value = priceless.
I'm glad to hear your friend's ride found a good home.
Look forward to seeing the pics and progress.

 

I will post pics later today...she is really dirty and needs a major cleaning. I sprayed a little starting fluid in the throttle body and she fired right up!! Its been sitting for 9 yrs!!! I need to drain all the gas out and start fresh! I am just glad that I saved her from certain doom!!

 

 

I think it has been repainted and I don't think the Iroc stickers are in the right place but I am not sure

 

Sweet looking vert there dude,hopefully I can get the body straight enough on mine to go black,that's my favorite.I think the factory color on mine was like the red one next to it in the one pic.I have found that shade of red under it with some gold showing under some chipped paint.

 

sorry about your friend, but it looks like you got a screaming deal for $500.

the decals do look a little bit high on the doors...

 

Yea I like black, I got both Irocs for 1000.00! The red one is a 1988 with 50,000 miles.

Yea I think the car was repainted at one time. The inside is grey so would the Iroc stickers be red???
