I will not say it's over priced! ;) But it's more than double what I would pay. Looks like a repaint based on missing door moldings and decal installation. And for the asking price, wheels and lug nuts should be mint.

Re: '85 IROC, LG4, 5 speed, 44K miles.
For the asking price, you'd expect a low mile, super duper mint example. This seems like a nice car, but why the repaint with 44K miles? Wheels needs refinishing, leather shifter ball is gone, why? From wear? Door moldings were probably destroyed on removal during repaint and weren't reinstalled or replaced.
This is a nice driver quality IROC-Z, but priced like an investment grade car. If the paint was bad, I just wonder what the undercarriage looks like? The stick and t-tops help this car's value. The LG4 and lack of original paint hurt it. $9-$11K is a fair price.

If That's The Original Paint It's Held Up Very Well,Not A Single Pebble/Stone Chip/Bug Stain On The Front Fascia After 33 Years.

Note how the stripes are too long and go around the wheel lip. The stripes should be trimmed at the edge of the wheel opening for a factory representation.

If this car were close to me id give 8k for it and definitely 7k for your Trans Am Ray Jr. LG4 cars are just too easy to swap a 350 in and hide it well. I like the old Quadrajets on a mild built SBC.
