some people will say anything to sell a car. i also didnt know that the car came factory with 3.70 gears , a b&m shifter and what looks like slp runners.

 

Nice looking car, may not be stock. And it may only be 50 cars in his location.

 

I think he meant 50 Irocs in that nice of condition....

 

THat is a nice looking pretty almost original iroc, i would be proud to own one like that with low miles.

I think the things he did to modify it were in good taste and should be appreciated

 

i would assume paint job possibly too, no? wheres the decals at? was there a delete option for IROCs in 89 other than the "California IROC"?

 

Yes, there was a delete Decal Option in 1989. But it may have been painted & then no Decal's.

 

i'm not saying that the car isn't nice looking but he is over exaggerating.

 

I agree.

It's not that the car isn't nice, it's that I wonder about the car when the seller acts shady, or tries to OVERsell the car as being some super rare find.

 

Rare? Some people will say anything to sell a car. I did find this 'rare' IROC in Florida at the WCA Winter Nationals though. 1990 IROC w/1LE option...37 miles on the odometer, 2nd owner just picked it up. I can only imagine what he paid.

 

Man he must have paid a pretty penny for it. And whats up with that hood to nose gap. The pass side is ok but the driver looks like thers .75 of an inch gap. Other than that its beautiful

 

Actually, the photo was taken while he was having the car inspected. Very unusual part of the show, the WCA inspects each car for working lights, horns, wipers, etc before registering the car. And then a look under the hood for any mods which would put you into another class so the hood is actually popped in this case.

 

Now that is rare!

 

yea you bet! i like the color too.

 

He's already trying to roll it. Check out the for sale section on the main page at http://www.1le.net/

 

i wonder how much.

 

I'm more willing to bet that the ad on 1LE.net is the original ad and the webmaster has not updated the page. At the Florida show, he said he just bought from a guy in Indiania I think it was, and he intended to show it this year in the NY area after leaving Florida in the next few months. This car is a trailer queen no doubt about that.

 

No IROC cars (especially autos) had the 3.73 gears did they? I'm 99.9% sure that no 350/auto cars ever had anything shorter than 3.42 from the factory.

Only the early 3rdgens like my '83 HO had the 3.73 gears, right?

 

Well stock or not its a very nice car.

 

Yes the 3.73's where available in '83 - '86 in both HO and LG4 cars alike. However the best (shortest) rear gears a 350 thirdgen came with were 3.27's ('87 - '89).

The original post is total I know of 50 IROC's that are that nice (or better). Plus the 3.70's rear seems a "little" suspect.

Later, Garrett

 

looks like an awesome car!! well taken care of it seems...

 

He's got my shifter!!
