I doubt its "rare" but '92 is around when production number for the F-body started to slide, so that would make it more difficult to find.

More people are holding onto mint top model Thirds, but they are out there. Now, finding one that's exactly what you're looking for, that's a whole different subject.

Honestly, it might be easier to buy a 305TPI Z28 and then slap in a 350. I was trying to find a 350/ttop/g92 iroc with all options but had to make an exception and got a 305tpi car with all the options that I wanted.

All that would really be different is the RPO code, injectors, and chip.... and your knowledge of what the car had stock.

Or you could include the 91 model year, which would increase your chances of finding "your" car.

Oh *** no, don't do that! There are too many '91 350 Z28's that escaped with rear drum brakes. Hold out for a '92!

look into 91...

Your might have better luck finding a 91 Z28. Yes the 91 Z28's escaped with rear drum brakes but you can always convert it if I'm right.

my 2 cents....
