Whew, "New" IROC
I sold my last IROC in July last year, just wasn't the right one. Been looking ever since and bought this one about 50 miles from here this morning, I would call it good driver condition, mostly original paint and nice inside.It's a 305 TPI, automatic, 107K and is pretty much the car I was looking for.

Re: Whew, "New" IROC
I've always liked white 3rrd gens, and that yellow stripe does something for it.
Looks like it was really well taken care of. Interior doesn't look worn.

Re: Whew, "New" IROC
Wow. VERY CLEAN. I'm looking at the parts that usually get the most wear like the side of the driver's seat plastic covers. They look perfect.

Re: Whew, "New" IROC
Thanks, I had forgotten about the floor. we bought this house about 25 years ago and I was going to get the floor fixed but then filled up the garage with old cars and motorcycles and just never had it empty enough to deal with. I quit noticing it 10 or 15 years ago.

Ahh, vintage, both car and man!
Congrats. The car is very nice—some of the options are pretty cool too.

Re: Whew, "New" IROC
Yep, it's very nice, very nice x 2. Irvan had been looking for a while so I'm happy that he finally found one that he likes. Yeah, I parked in the street (I hadn't driven the thing for at least a month, maybe 6 weeks, so getting it on the road was good).

Re: Whew, "New" IROC
Thanks, Pictures are better than real life with car, got some little dinks from kids playing around it in the basement it was in but car is ok. I like the look of the tires but have a date code from 2000, they will have to be replaced. Is nice to have James C stop by and share his wisdom.
