I feel so lucky that I found this car. It's a 1987 Iroc Z with a 5.0, 5 speed, 3.45 gears, 4 wheel disc brakes, AC, T-tops, 245/50-16's and a bunch of other stuff...

Here's the best part...It has only 26,500 original miles and is in absolute perfect condition...

As hard as it's going to be, I'm going to leave it stock. I may do a bolt on cat back and intake and some suspension mods, but that's it. She's going to be my garage queen Sunday driver...

I feel like I'm back in High School, except this time I'm dating a HOT 21 year old instead of a hot 17 year old...

















I was searching for Camaro websites and found Camaroz28.com and was referred here since it's 3rd gen specific. Something tells me I'm going to be spending a lot of time here...

Until next time...

 

very nice camaro man. and welcome to the site

 

Gorgeous...

 

I'm still deciphering these codes...

 

that olnley takes a few minutes with the rpo decoder on the site

 

I just read that it's not advisable to post your vin so I edited the original sticker picture. The last six digits are not correct. I moved a few zero's around...

 

I don't see whats so great... the paint is flawless, interior looks like it has never been used, extremely low milage, and you could eat off the engine bay... wait a minute, that is amazing!! How much did you have to spend for that 'ROC? I got mine for about $3,200 (from a dealership).

 

WOW

That Interior Looks AMAZING!

I have seen alot of original Low Mile cars, but yours Really is Nice!

Take Care of her!

 

i envy you , no hate you . you have that baby and i don't . oh well , nice car anyway . take care of both while you have them .

 

That what they all say... mwahahaha.
At least that's what I said until I put a catback on mine. That little mod just left me wanting more. Sharp car. Rare to see one that original and clean with so few miles.

Welcome to the boards!

 

Wish mine looked that good. WOW!

 

Thanks guys. I got the carfax today. This car had one owner and in 1996 it had only 11,582 miles. In 1998 it had 19,600 miles...You can see that it was hardly driven.

Here's the last few entries from the carfax...

My son loves it too. He calls it daddy's new race car...

 

Cool pic and CLEAN IROC! The runners in your TPI look aftermarket to me. I have AZ. S&M runners in my IROC to improve air flow and they look really similar.

 

Is there any indicator on them on the outside so I can confirm? I'll check for any stamping and post back. I thought they were stock though...

 

None that I can see. It may just be that I've never seen an engine bay that clean though.

 

OK, I went out to check for any numbers or anything but there's nothing I can see. I took some pics so you can see them better. Let me know if they are the same. If they're aftermarket and provide better flow, then I'm a happy guy. If they suck then I'll take them off.

Let me know your impressions of them on your car. I can say that this car definitely has cajones!!!

 

After looking more closely, they are probably the stockers. Still a very clean car. You are the envy of many TGO members. Score for you. Heres a few pics of my stock and aftermarket runners:

Here's a shot of the plenum before porting to give an idea of how much aluminum was removed for more air flow for the larger TB:

And the ported plenum to help my larger TB:

And the TB's:

After market 58mm

and the factory one.

 

Thanks for the pics. I was told the car had never been altered in any way other than service, and that's one of the reasons I wanted it. I am actually glad that they are stock...

I am looking into suspension upgrades though. I also may do a bolt on catback and intake and just keep the stock parts...

 

That car is awesome. Congrats on the great buy. And welcome to the boards. They are indeed very addicting. Lots of information, and great people on here.

 

If I were you, I'd keep it stock for as long as I could. That includes no upgrades whatsoever. IF you feel the need to modify, why don't you buy a cheaper IROC and make a clone of your garage beauty you got there

 

Very clean, I also bought a completely stock 91 Formula. I planed on keeping it stock, BUT I'm thinking whatever mods I do I'll keep the stock parts and reinstall if I ever plan to sell.

Your son is too cute all deck up JG apparel... looks like you need to keep it for him when he turns 16

 

I'm not altering a thing. I just had it smogged today and it passed with flying colors...

I also found the build sheet under the driver's seat...How cool is that?...


The weather was gorgeous today so I took it for a spin. It's really cool with the t-tops out, almost like a convertible. I took a few more pics so I thought I'd share them...







Supposedly the Rob Zombie movie, "House of 1,000 Corpses" was filmed here, but I don't know for sure. Can someone confirm this?...

 

Again, very clean IROC!

 

Man that is one SWEET ride, but I have always loved the white IROC's lol

 

That is a sweet iroc man congratz!!!!!!

 

Beautiful, I would fix one thing though:

Other than that I LOVE that car

Oh, I forgot, get new coolant and washer fluid bottles.

 

wow that is a very sexy camaro bro, very nice good job haha

welcome to 3rd gen man

 

Super clean. It's got that Cali paint though, so keep it out of the sun! It'll bake the clear right off. That's what happened to mine. :'(

Take a look at Scott Moyer's car for a clean '87 as well. Willie also had an '87 Twin Turbo 305, and he has an '87 Vert. Duck has an '87 with the factory chin spoiler and 91-92 sideskirts and rear bumper cover. Who else have I seen with good '87's.

 

very clean ...and 73 RPO codes makes it highly optioned, nice find!

 

what happened to the side trim?

 

....SEXY!!!! gets a 10 in my book!!!

 

Other than the small dent in my drivers side front fender, about 1-1/2" diameter, my 87 IROC is pretty much spotless.

 

True. Maroon IROC's unite! :P Like, 85-90% of all of the '87 Irocs I've seen are Maroon. I don't understand it. Mine was pretty straight, just had bad paint. Then my friend backed into the hood in the driveway, and then some old people hit me at Circuit City, and then I rearended someone in rush hour traffic (like, 5mph) but I impaled my bumper cover on his tow hitch. :'(

 

very clean car. I didn't see were you posted what you paid.if you don't mind, I am just curious what a car of that status goes for.

 

Beautiful, stinkin beautiful!

 

My understanding is that side trim (molding) was an option. The RPO code for it was not listed on my sheet so I'm pretty sure the car did not come with them...

I don't know what the 73 RPO codes are, but it definitely has some good stuff on it...

 

i hope you have a nice big garage, because you should just pickle that thing. keep those miles way down there. also, look into calssic/collector car insurance. i use haggerty.
----------
wow, i just relized it was a t-5. that cars already worth alot of $$$, thats a very desirable car. barret jakson in 5 years. KEEP IT BONE STOCK!

 

i dont think it was an option. i could be wrong though

 

Well the RPO code B84 says "body side moulding" and my code sheet does not have that number listed...

 

ok i guess you are right. i wasnt sure about that one

 

Very nice! I think you posted this car up on Camarosource.ca for the calender entry right? It looks familiar.

 

Yeah, I feel it's worthy. I doubt it will make it though because since I've been surfing the forums I've seen many other's that blow mine away. You guys sure have some bad *** 3rd gens out there.

 

Not necessarily man. The last time a calender was made yours would have definatly made it in, and knocked one of the other cars out of the running.

By the way, I don't think that link works. At least it wouldn't work on my computer.

 

Man that is the cleanliest IROC ever its like its was just bought of the lot. I thought mine was clean but dam

 

See if this one works...

I am in the process of removing the carpet to get the SFC's welded in and I took the opportunity to take some more pics from some different angles...

 

Great looking car.....love the colour......maybe change yourboard name to 'Mr. Clean'....let me know if you need help with the RPO codes.

 

house of 1000 corpses was filmed in the back parking lot of universal studios Hollywood.

AMAZING CAR BTW

 

Now you need a love song to go with your slide show , love your car by the way.
