1986 Iroc Resurection

Hello from Oregon.
Ive been building my basket case for a year now, winter came and shut me down for a few months Lol. She was a rolling tin can but having one in high school I had to save her. This one is white which i didn't care for as much at the time but after working on her Ive learned to to love the color. Originally white with gray trim. Ive changed to the gold trim with gold wheels ( took me a while to find OEM in gold in good condition) I tooled up to do auto body and painting (definitely different disciplines Lol) I practiced on my other car before shooting the Roc. Ive installed a new interior top to bottom except seats which I'm undecided on color. Keeping the original 305 TPI , yes in always up for a good challenge Lol. In older cars like these I believe stock is cool. There fast enough just still driving around!
This is my first post because I coudnt find the right page to do it. I'm posting a few pics to show my progress.
I really enjoy seeing the others pics and info on everyones third gens! this is a great site.

Re: 1986 Iroc Resurection

That looks great, keeping it stock (at least for now) is a good idea until you get some significant road time to work out the details.
