I am talking cars like the burnt orange IROC, the yellow IROCs, gunmetal grey, polo green, purple haze, the 85 sliver IROCS, the teal 92 Z28, etc. you get the idea.

 

you mean like this?






I don't think gunmetal gray is such a rare color... is it? It's not original on mine, although one of the donor cars was a factory original gunmetal gray 1983 Z28. I liked the color so I ended up painting the whole car like that.

That donor Z28 would have looked exactly like this, minus the third brake light and possibly with a different interior.

 

Do you mean medium grey metallic? They aren't that rare when looking at production numbers but you hardly ever see one.

 

correct

 

Dark Claret Metallic 1982 Z28, this I think is the third rarest color in 1982, I own the only two I have ever seen! This is my nice one, original paint.

 

Man i love that Metallic grey color! Wanna trade? LOL

 

Gorgeous and certainly unique!

 

I think I just drooled on my desk. nice lookin car

 

beautiful cars

 

I own an 88 Burnt Orange Iroc 5.7. Love the color (was even better in person) I am thinking of selling soon.

 

I'm not exactly sure of the name of the color but its whatever stock brown was in 1984. I think this is a pretty rare color, ive seen one in person once and a few online and that was it. i'm pretty sure production numbers were really low, less than 1% i think. some people dont like it but I do, it almost looks orange when in the sun.

this is an old pic of my 1986 z28...dark blue w/gold trim and wheels. Beige interior...really a rare color combo. Still have the original window sticker and paperwork.

 

Pic or it didn't happen

 

wow that silver IROC is beautiful. anyhow i like the med. blue like mine , silver, med. grey, purple haze and black mostly on the 91/92 z's

 

Wow! Iv been looking for a color for months now to paint my 91 RS, and i think i just found it. Gunmetal gray looks amazing; I am punching my self for not thinking of it to begin with.

 

My 88 gun metal gray metallic.. back when it looked a lot nicer The paint is shot now.

 

looks cool

 

does this qualify?

 

^I see that color everywhere actually im looking to buy an iroc the same color. i like the color. but it isn't rare.

 

Here's my GMG/DGM with Silver gfx




And heres the very first picture i took of my car

 

my understanding is that the burnt orange of 88 is pretty rare (something like 3-4k painted this color, please correct me if I am wrong) and the only year they painted third gens that color.

My 88 Iroc 5.7

 

Correct, very rare color, I have never seen one in person.

 

really? iv only seen 1 in person and only a few online. i know there is a somewhat similar blue but not exactly. sorry.

 

There's a burnt orange iroc in my town that someone painted black racing stripes on!!

 

Theres a gold 82 Z/28 here in Yreka thats for sale for I think $1000 or BO. I drive by it every day but havent stopped to look at it. It does have the tan interior and I cant tell if its a 4 speed or auto. The back bumper cover is missing as it was hit in the rear but doesnt look like too much damage otherwise. The paint is in really good condition if its the original paint. If anyone wants me to go take a few pics I will do that if someone is really interested and will get the phone #.
Update...car is gone

 

think this is a pretty rare color on a bird

 

nice looking cars in here but isn't Heritage cars 92 model only ? and I dont know thats why am asking.

 

heres mine dark green grey first year for that color, not alot around not sure about production numbers either though. yes oscar the heritage was a 92 option, all 92 camaros were 25th's but the heritage package was the striping option on the red black and white cars with color matched grilles. dont think think that any other colors had stripes, but could be wrong.

 

Guess mine doesn't qualify here.

I love that gray Iroc!! Nice car!!!!

 

The White Book says...









...2,659

But there is also a Dark Teal (14,779) and a Polo green II (5,365) for that year as well.

 

Thanks scorpner so it was somewhat of a low number then?

 

did you swap in a 5.7? T-top cars never came with them, 5.0l is the largest v8 they got.

 

Yes it is a VERY low number since the only made 69823 camaros that year and only 2659 were your color so thats 3.8%. thats pretty low

My dark metallic grey only made 8628 out of 96275, and that 8.9 percent which is kinda low looking at production #s but I have the only one in iowa that ive seen in the last two years ive had it, everyone has black, red, or the blue i saw like 2 or 3 of each TODAY, i have never seen the yellow, orange, silver, or EVEN a white one and there was just over 15k in whitein 88 alone, doubt ill even see the 1.5k Silver of 88s

 

For the record in 92 white, red, black, and green(gold stripes) had stripe options. I think there might have been a purple with black stripes or black with purple stripes too, but Im not sure.

 

Yes as mentioned, it is a very low number.

 

The White book says 3010 Medium Orange. I know that Copper was produced only one year in 1985 (11,406) and that is as close to burnt orange as you might see. What color is your interior BTW?

 

here is my 88 iroc, med orange met. factory ttops with the factory 5.7, i have L98, 63U, and CC1 rpo codes, except someone swapped on a qjet carb on it, so no tpi, sucks, wish the PO wouldve left the tpi

not the prettiest, but i am proud that i have a rare-ish camaro, lol


picture looks like crap, taken with my phone, made the paint look a lot darker than it is for some reason

 

found this, am sure you all have seen before but here it is anyway

Haven't seen it before and it was interesting.

 

it was wasn't it...270hp not bad for its time....

 

My brand new (at the time) 1992 Camaro RS in Polo Green

 

Incorrect... That fact was only valid for 91-92 Z's. They couldn't have 350's and T-tops. Once the 350 came out in 87 they were OK in t-top cars...


I have two yellow Iroc's right now.

One 85 with black interior and one 86 with tan...

 

Here is a pic of my 92 RS, Polo Green with Heritage package. Just bought it in April. All original except for hood. Polo green Z03 came with gold stripes, black grill and headlamp pockets, beige was only conv. top and interior color. It also got gold Rs badging on exterior and gold accents on wheels. For some reason it was only offered on RS.

 

I love your Camaro Duane. Nice car.

 

Dark Green Gray Metallic is AWESOME

 

Hey would made the front stripes? I have a heritage car with a cowl but can't find someone to make the stripes

 

Is it really a rare color? Your RS is what mine is/was! Same thing from the paint to wheels, well besides it being a t-top version. Too bad paint was shot.

 

Very rare, you never see them anymore and low numbers

 

Sorry david, can't say who made the stripes, hood was on it when I bought it. I can tell you that they were painted on (very good job, done about 8 or 9 years ago, to bad there is a small rock chip in one). The back ones are still the original vinyl and they have been clear coated. Noone notices the difference until I tell them to rub their fingers over them.
Carlos773 do you still have the original gold wheels, I could always use a spare set

 

Sorry to hijack your thread

I had mine painted on and cleared.
