can't beleve it, I found it the only L98 1996 IROC!!!!

 

ummmm, its obviously a mistake or , so why bother wasting precious bandwith with this crap

 

Either not a 350 or its had an engine swap. Ask him for the VIN.

 

Something doesn't look right in that photo - like it's stretched or something.

Anyway, I'm shocked that there's been 11 bids and it's up to $10,000 - I think the low-mile thirdgens are starting to go up in price.

 

A 350 swap would be my vote. Anyone can take a Camaro & put it up for sale on Ebay. My 83 Z for instance. Hey everyone...a 5.7 83 Z28 is for sale on Ebay. Didn't know they made one!!!

Its also the ONLY '86 with ABS as well. Don't beleive everything you hear. 90% of the Camaros and Firebirds for sale have a "350" because its the most cliche selling point and too many people are too stupid and naive to know otherwise. A good portion of those are also "freshley rebuilt"

 

Errrm.. crack?? for one thing, I'll assume you meant 1986, not 1996. For another thing, that seller has zero credibility, since he claims there's anti-lock brakes on the car. For another thing, the VIN is conveniently missing! Typical.. he left it out so he wouldn't give away the fact that it's a 305.

If ever there was a auction, this one is it. Not only that, but the high bidder will either back out once he finds out the truth, OR, he'll go ahead and buy it and be disappointed since it's a "measly" 305, and he'll abuse the car to death since it won't be rare in his opinion. So.. wave goodbye to this IROC, possibly.

 

I have asked the guy for the Vin so lets see what happens. If hes wrong we will correct him NICELY.

 

Anyone notice the door decals are in the wrong place for 86. The car is total

 

this is what I just got back from the SELLER when I emailed him asking for the Vin Number
Dear Sir/ Madam

Please call Dan @ (810) 459-7779

Thanks

David

I emailed him back stating that I dont have Long Distance & that I Just want to make sure the car is what it suppost to be (didnt tell him I knew that there were only 50 86 Camaros made with the 350 & None that we know of were sold) & I wanted to run a carfax on it.

Lets see what happens with that one.

Looks like this guy is just a middle man though

 

i rather have a 90 iroc-z 5.7..

 

Heh, sounds like you got a better reply than I did. Basically I told him there were errors and omissions in the auction that were misleading and needed to be fixed, and I told him what they were, etc. Seems like he's more interested in the fast bucks and being cocky than being honest and truthful, because here's what I got back:

"From: dmlawn@juno.com

Dear Sir,

No one has a gun to your back to purchase this vehicle. I am selling this
vehicle for someone else. His direct # (810) 459-7779. Please call Dan
and he can answer all your questions. The reserve is $15,000.00, if you
do not have that kind of money do not even bother to waste his or mine
time !!! and if you do not like that answer BUZZ OFF !!!"

 

In case that retard didn't notice, but under the box that has all that "misleading" info, it says:
I think I would buy that car, then SUE!!!

 

i think we should all bid on it get it to like $50,000 and then leave him negative feedback haha he'll be stuck with the seller fees

seriously though, the decals on the doors are on the back of the door, should be on the front. we all know it's not a 5.7... who is this guy trying to fool.

 

$15,000 Reserve!!!!

 

The door stickers being in the wrong place was mentioned. Any1 else notice the 88-90 IROC stripes?!

 

Ya think he's a little upset with email's?

BTW, how many '86 IROC's came with a "sunroof" ?

 

Did anyone call Dan?

 

How about e-mailing Dan back just for the hell of it?

 

I havent but I did get another email from him.

Dear Madam,

I do not have the Vin # I am selling for another person. Please contact
him directly concerning this (810) 459-7779

Thanks

David

 

because the only email we have is for David which IS NOT the owner of the car just the middle man

 

You guys are hilarious! Someone has a third gen Camaro on ebay and the description isn't as accurate as it could be, so some of you immediately think the person is trying to rip somebody off? Perhaps, in contrast to several members here, this guy has a life outside of the third gen world.
As far as the "86 350" issue goes, I don't get the impression that he wants people to believe that it is one of the 50 built in '86 for press evaluation and testing. You are the ones inferring that from what he has written. In fact, it only mentions "5.7" once in the description, it's not even in the title; yet he must be trying to deceive someone? Cut this guy some slack people.

 

I meant David. Sorry!

 

I agree. Not everyone is as Fbody smarty pants like everyone here. We know it isn't a 5.7L so leave it alone. If someone who BUYS it has a problem with the purchase THEY can and will deal with it. Leav it alone people. Not everyone is a smart as some of the people here.

 

I did & I was NICE about it. Telling the guy that I didnt want to see someone that didnt know a thing about these cars being sued due to the fact that theorg owner of the car gave him bad infromation.

 

someone should go through & write the bidders & tell them that the car is not as its being sold as. lol

 

Your right, thats why its the SELLERS JOB to make sure that the description is 100% accurate. If the seller does not have a clue about the car, he needs to post that. Ebay puts on the auction that: "Seller dmlawn assumes full responsibility for the content of this listing and the item offered." That means that what you present the car as, damn well better be what the buyer gets. Otherwise, its FRAUD. Take it lightly if you want, but people get ripped off every day by "innocent" mistakes. And I'm sure your tune will change when one day you buy something that you don't know a whole lot about and are trusting the product description to guidance.

 

See that is just it. I don't buy things without looking deeply into them first. For instance. I am looking to buy a Digital Cam. I have been looking for over a month now. Researching what is what. If someone doesn't look before they jump, that is their problem. I don't feel that this person is over stressing anything about the 350 in that car, maybe it was a typo? Not sure, but alot of you jump to the conclusion that he is ripping someone off. If it isn't you then it really isn't your buisness, is it? Drop it! And leave the guy alone. Simple as that.

On that note, I trust nothing that I know nothing about on Ebay. "Most" of the people on there are some type of scam artists.

 

Absolutely it is fraud. That car is totally misrepresented. Unfortunately the sucker that buys it won't have the money to pay for a lawyer to sue the seller.

If they are unable or unwilling to provide the VIN then stay away.

I personally am surprised that the bid has gotten anywhere near the reserve.

 

Ok after I wrote him explaining why this car could not be a 86 this is what I got back. Oh by the way the car was taken off of ebay.

Dear Miss,

I appreciate your concern for my well being. However, if you call the
owner of the vehicle @ (810) 459-7779. He will state that this was a
"PILOT" vehicle for GM. I you do not know what a "Pilot" vehicle is a
vehicle for strickly GM executive. Basically if you have the money you
can do whatever you want to this from the FACTORY !!! by being a GM
executive. He is the son of a GM executive. This vehicle does have
everything it states. And I am very sorry that you know everything about
1986 Iroc Z but this is that fact of the matter. I do not want to burst
your knowledge of 1986 Iroc but I just did. Beside the vehicle did not
sell so you just wasted alot of your time as well as mine. Call Dan
@(810) 459-7779 and shed all the knowledge you want with him about the
1986 Iroc Z. Because Baby !!! I do not give a crap about what you know so
go bug someone else!!!


See Ya

 

He's a GM executive's son? hmmm......ok

 

My sisters' step sons' mothers' second born daughters' father-in-laws' cousin had a father that was a GM executive as well... Small world ain't it?

 

You too? That's amazing.

Anyway, so what they were saying is that this particular vehicle is a "pilot" car to which any tom, dick, or harry can do to it whatever they want to, and it'll still be "factory"?............. That is too too funny. That must explain why I have the only 350 engined car with a 5-speed in existance. lol j/k.

 

Yeah, kinda like buying a Hypertech chip and airfoil.

 

If it was indeed a 'Pilot' car then it wouldn't be fully loaded

 

HA!! losers, every1 knows I have the only 86 350 sold to the public, i had a friend that had a step dad and his step dad was the grand child of zora arkus duntov, i could have gotten a mako shark vette or nehting else i wanted but i opted for the only 86 350 and i got it with a state of the art non world class t5 5spd transmission....

 

Nobody knows anything about the car and nobody talked with the guy who sells the car.If you're really curious call the guy and get all the info you need.It could be an engine swap, what they say might be true or maybe it's fake there are lot's of possiblities.I don't understand this reaction really.I mean you're sending someone an e-mail full of info and he doesn't even care.What's the point?This happens almost once a week and you're getting same kind of replys from everyone.

 

See what GMTech was talking about?! Stuff like that is complete BS that no1 should have to put up with.

Why don't you E-Mail back and ask him, if the car is what he says it is then why does this stock/factory car have the IROC-Z stickers at the back of the door and 88-90 IROC stripes?? Its great how this car has T-Tops and A/C also, especially when the test cars did not have either.

 

that car has Air conditioning. The original 50 cars did not have the compressor for the ac. They did have the the AC heater box though. It's also a t-top car, werent the 50 prototypes hard tops?

Eric

 

Who cares? the guy obviously doesn't know what he WAS selling. Its no longer on ebay. I"m sure he's caught the drift.

LOCKED!
