i got this car 2 months ago,the paint was all oxidized and the engine was knocking.it even had a tree growing in the front wheel lol but when i got it home i started working on it.wish i had taken sum pics what it look like before

 

here a pic what it look like before,as u can see the paint is dull, wish i had more pics of what it look like before but this is the only one i got

 

dude... NIIIIIIIIICE!!! What'd all u have to do to it? about how much money u spend in those two months if you don't mind me askin'?

 

thats sharp I can only hope my 91 rs turns out that good, and I paid 1000 for it with a slung rod in a 305.I can't see any flaws in the pictures, I'm impressed, I'm also curious about how much you sank in this thing before you got it to this point.

 

good job!!! is your buffer still working? ha ha

 

i spent a total of 600 bucks,that a complete rebuilt engine with a refu crank.new flowmaster exhaust system and the small thing like brakes


haha i wish i had a buffer, all that work was done with my hand lol let me tell u when i was done i couldn't feel my arm lol

 

That is the most well-spent $450 I've ever seen. Bravo

 

thanks man...

 

I keep looking at that first picture. That sure is a sharp car. I wish my '89 was that color scheme. Mine was a hardtop and was that Flame Red Metallic color with the gold accents and the 15" gold wheels. I really like the red and silver with those wheels. Looks stunning

 

thanks again man...

 

awesome looking iroc, i'd pay 10x that to have mine look as nice as yours.

 

looks awesome man. I wish I could get mine looking that good for as little $$ as you did! Got any pics of the interior?

 

 

wow...that car looks gorgeous. Great Job!!!

 

here sum interior pics,need some new thing like a dash and get the driver seat repaired,it has a long tear so that why i put some seat cover on..

 

Looks good man, looks like my buddies old '89 IROC.

 

 

That looks like a steal for 450. I know people that have paid a lot more for a car not near as nice... like myself.

 

Nice buy and good job fixing it up. looks like its worth a lot more than $450 noe!

 

Nice car good job, not to be off topic but in the third pic does the firebird in the back ground have a kit?

 

yeah thats my bro 88 firebird,but yeah he bought that rear bumper somewhere lol.

i get some pics tomorrow of it..

 

Cool, thanks.

 

And myself.

 

Very nice buy. Its looks to be rust free?

 

yep rust free as i know of...

 

It's hard to tell from the pictures, but what kind of shape is the paint/body in? It looks like a pretty new paint job (although that's probably not the case since you said it was oxidized).

This is basically my gf's car but with silver accents and grey interior instead of gold accents and peanut butter interior.

 

the paint by all means is not perfect..it still has some oxidized left which i cant get it out by hand,have to get a buffer or something.the front bumper has some scraps and the passenger door have a winkle i guess that what u call it.anyways a owner before me was drunk and hit a mail box lol that why i took pic of the driver sidebut it still dont look that bad..since i spill the beans guess i have to show a picture of it now...

 

MONEY WELL SPENT !!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish i can find deals like that, or even close to that on thirdgens...people are selling crappy cars, for mroe than 2 or 3 k...not even close to the condition of that car. Running or not, i'd buy that iroc for more than 450. Have fun with your New ride

 

I will give you 350.00 for it due to depreciation.

 

Nice car man, you got 1 heck of a deal on it

 

Looks great nice work..

 

thanks..i say about 6months i will have an ss hood and a new paint job along with headers and some other nice goodies

 

aight here sum pics of the pas dr and my bro firebird.

 

Man I think even with the door being all dinged up you still would have got a good deal on it for $1,200. How many miles are on it?

 

idk the seed cable been broken since 98 i think according to the inspecting stickers that was in the car when i bought it..but it says 78k and counting since i bought a new cable..

really the parts it need to be in perfect condition is

driver seat
dash
tach
pas dr
pas mirror
and new paint or wetsand then reclear coat..

 

Sounds like a great car. I'd suggest a new paint job rather than sanding and clear coating over the old stuff. You want to sand it down and put more color on because a lot of the time the color gets screwed up when the paint gets oxidized that badly. I had some bad oxidation on my hood on my Z and a body shop told me it wasn't worth the hassle to just clear coat over it.

 

oh ok thanks for the tip
