Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Beautiful car. Love that color. It looks like even low mileage cars stored in climate controlled conditions aren't immune from the dreaded late third gen armrest blowups. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I thought I saw this one for sale on ebay a few months ago?? |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! OK, so lets hear it......what's it going to sell for ??? :burnout: |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Should have taken out the floor mats. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! U wouldn't think a car with that low miles would need the rims redone and new decals.it's a nice car but i don't think it will go for more then the starting bid imo. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Needs some tic mechically. A/c is a big one. Plus the power attenna. It’s a nice car but I think with the car needing some repairs it’s more like a 10k car. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! My estimate for the final selling price is $16,000 - $18,000 but I'd need to see more pics....I think I see some rattle can black on the underside pic.....I hate it when sellers do that !! |

Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Man I like that color scheme! |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! It's got me thinking.....maybe I will turn my 91 RS into an IROC clone......would be easy to do |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I think I caught a glimpse of an alarm system wired in there too. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Hi there, Anyone notice the radio knobs and buttons are incorrect? I have an '88, and all buttons and knobs were black, not silver. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Its up to 16k already guess i was wrong irocs r really starting to come in value. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! The antenna staying up would bother me.. I don’t expect 31 year old cars to have working A/C.. sometimes if you can find R12 it’ll recharge and work unless you want to do the 134A swap but that’s a few bucks.. If I wanted top dollar for my car I’d probably fix those things though.. The Cat leak too.. That’s an easy, fast fix.. In New England you don’t need A/C too often unless you’re out stuck in traffic from 1pm-4pm in July-August.. and it’s only usually one-week Long heat wave/ year.. I like the car a lot, but it’s at $16k without hitting reserve.. I wonder what they are expecting for it? I think $17k is fair but I’d be a buyer at $14k Would need to see the underside and check the history to see if it could be 123k Miles.. With the wheels refinished and the stripe kit I’m assuming it’s maybe repaint too which is not necessarily a bad thing, but all that could hide the true mileage.. The interior shots are a little tough to tell. I really like what I can see though.. great color combo with 5.7L and T-tops! |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Fooled me. I didn't think this was a 16k car. I agree if you ask that kind of $ why in hell cant you atleast fix these little pesky issues. Not a good sign. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I gotta great really inexpensive and performance supporting fix for that AC..... 60# off the nose? It's called an AC delete kit, you can find them all over in wrecking yards, a good heater fan cover.... |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! wow 16k and the reserve not met .. wonder how that could happen .. love ebay |

Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Yeah, I’m anticipating this car to not sell and maybe re-appear with a Buy It Now price of $22,900 or $24,900.. Probably fishing to see what the interest is out there, trying to feel out what the highest possible selling price will be.. with a little help from friends as Ray alluded to.. |

Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I agree, these bids mean nothing until its registered in another persons name. So simple to get shill bidders. Unethical, but happens more than doesn't on auctions like this. Its clean, but lots of things don't add up on this one. Underside of the car is pretty messed up & would rather see grime or rust than spray bombed goo, or what ever is underneath all that krylon ;) Sharp car though! |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I see clay bar residue on it |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! RE: You evidently don't live in the south. I refuse to drive a car without a working a/c in south Ms. Lol Decision .... Decisions..... Life is full of compromise no matter where you live.... |

We're reaching the point where, regardless of preservation technique, sometimes father time wins the battle. This car is over 30 years old and despite low miles, is in an area that seems to get cold weather. Even if it sat in a garage, all of those temperature cycles could have hurt decals, painted plastics, etc. That's true. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! My sway bar brackets were not painted black... The axle & sway bar looks like it has been repainted... The rest of it looks really good tho. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.thi...b09ac681f2.jpg |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! If you want to know the reserve, place a ridiculous bid, say $10,000,000. Observe where your bid "stops", that's the reserve or the previous high bidder's bid. Then quickly cancel your bid claiming it was entered in error. Now honestly I don't condone peeking under the reserve in this fashion. However, everytime I've listed something with a reserve, someone inevitably does it to me, then the follow up by bidding a penny less than the reserve. That's Ebay for you. |

Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Bidding is over $18K now.....someone is insane !! |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! I just looked at my 89... and apparently my sway bar U-joints and brackets are black... hmm.. I do not think I would not have done them in black if they were not black originally... I apparently have... Man my memory is so faulty.. |

Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Rear brackets were black. Front are gray, probably a Zinc Phosphate or other plating. |
Re: Wow! Nice Medium Gray '88 IROC! Why do sellers feel they must spray rattle can black all over the underside of the car ?? |
