IROC Z L98 from Russia
Hello everybody
I want to tell you little strory about my lovely Camaro IROC.
At first i had 2 cars 1982 Z28 Euro version "for parts" and 1986 Iroc Z T-top 5.0 TBI.
As result i want to have 85-90 Iroc Z look with L98.
It started in 2015. Me and my friend start to disassemble 1982 for building 1986. We want to stay with 5.0 carb and THM200C
During our work, Body of Iroc goes to paint.
In 2 weeks we take it back
Paint was not good. I was vey disapoint.
We had some troubles so Iroc went to sleep for 1.5 years. During this time i meet restorer, who took my car for building. So Camaro goes to his workshop. And he start to build my Dream!

Re: IROC Z L98 from Russia
Tax pay wil be too high, if i will buy outside of Russia and ship it to Moscow.
Anyway i want realy new build car. Third Gen Camaro is my all life dream!
In USA it is not rare car like Camaro 1gen, but in Russia it is very interesting car. We have many diffrent US cars. Vetts C1, C2 and high, Chargers, Mustangs and many other. Many LS projects.

Re: IROC Z L98 from Russia
Great job. Is it difficult to get parts and services in Russia?

Re: IROC Z L98 from Russia
Thank you!
Unfortunatly, it is VERY old photo and this intake runners go away long time ago.
Do you think i should try to find it for my 5.7? Will i need new ECM or can use stock after instal new runners?
Tnanx!

Amazing build my friend. Definitely keep us all updated, keep posting up pics. Really cool to know a thirdgen is rolling on the streets over there, definitely a headturner for you.
