I'm anxious to see the pics. Sounds cool! Nothing rare about a yellow 86 with black interior......they came with either black or tan.

Sounds like a nice car, I'm a big fan of yellow third gens. Here's another yellow on black IROC https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/thir...r-my-87-a.html . Looking forward to seeing some pics of yours

plenty of yellow with black interiors out there .. now if it was a 1985 with a black lear siegler interior that would be a little rare but the 86 interiors were basically all the same ..

Looks great! The interior is still black. Sometimes the black interiors fade to a dark blue.

Thanks so much I credit the condition to the previous owners the guy I bought it from had twelve third gens at once they were all stored in a big ware house that’s where I got mine the other owners kept very good care of it I believe it’s been garage kept it’s whole life I was so stoked to find it being yellow since they are uncommon and it was one of my favorite colors

Re: My New Yellow 86 Iroc Z
Nice car! Usually any yellow irocs i see are faded or painted a different yellow and most have gray accents not gold. Close to mine. 87 hardtop LB9/700R4. My interior is black with gray piping on the seats and gray armrests. 120k kms(Cdn) so 75k miles. Ill have to get the rpo codes once I get the car from storage. Since 1992 and never looked any rpos up except for the options I lnow of lol. Where is your yellow Iroc from?

Notice how the colour of the nose is a little bit different shade? Thats how they are with orig paint. At a car show or cruise night theres always one guy that tells you the car or the nose has been painted lol. If I remember correctly GM said it was the yellow paint that reacted with material used for the nose or maybe it was only noticeable on the yellow? It was almost 30 years ago but it was like that from the factory.

In 92, the noses were painted in Mexico and the cars in Van Nuys. Not sure when the Mexico noses started. I don’t think any colors were a perfect match because of this.
