87 Iroc

Iam going to look at a 87 Iroc 350 TPI with 44k original miles(or so the ad says) he wants $5,000 for it does this sound like a good deal? he said it is in mint cond. or am i better off sticking to my original plan and keep looking for a 88 or 89?

Maybe, thats what I'm looking for. Price does seem low for the miles but go look anyway. 87's are great, I like those IROC-Z's best of all Third Gens, and they are the 1st year of the 350 in the Camaro again. Tell us how it goes.

Sometimes as luck would have it, those once in a lifetime deals come to the lucky few. I hope it is everything the man says and you come out a winner.

Also to make sure it is a real 350 check the 8th digit of the vin number and make sure it is an 8. If there is any other number such as an "F" then it is a 305 car. Good luck.

Hey whats up sorry i didn't get back sooner but i have been searching the classifieds for another car.As luck would have it when i called the owner on the tuesday after memorial day at around 12pm just as the owner told me to do.This ******* comes out and tells me sorry another person had come that same morning and left a deposit and was picking up the car later that day.Man i tell you i wanted to reach into the phone grab his neck and choke him he swore to me that he wouldn't show the car to anyone before me.He gave me some bull**** excuse he didn't think i was gonna call and he was sorry. Yeah right! Needless to say i was upset for days i had my hopes really high that i was gonna buy it .Anyway the search is back on but it's real hard to find a clean Iroc that hasn't been beat to death plus i want a 350 and will not settle for a 305 but i'll keep looking and one will turn up but i will probaly never find a deal like that one.
