Not to be critical but there was no 92 IROC... On the other hand, there were IROC verts... but mine is an FRC. Specifically ordered that way in 1989. Traded the t-tops for the 350, it was about a wash cost wise if I remember 20 years ago correctly when my dad bought it...

If you don't want to contrubute you don't have to. I was just wondering if in the past (sounds like history)if there were more t-top IROCs made then hardtop IROCs. and since there are no records. I thought it might be fun to have a poll. SORRY if it bothered you.

Sorry, I thought the production #s for IROC verts was known. It would be interesting to know how many of the verts were IROCs. I will try to ad convertibles to the poll.

wow, you're a sensitive fella. If IROCs aren't broken down separately with respect to having t-tops, I wouldn't expect the percentages to be much different for them than camaros overall for the given years. I may have made the assumption that this thread was tending towards another "is this combo rare" while referencing basically a 50/50 option. So if i was mistaken about the direction you're going and offended you, then you have my apology.

I would consider all non convertable Camaros as coupes, some just happen to have removable parts.
