Gone and Done.

Welp the Iroc officialy left my possesion on Sat. I officially decided that I am done with thirdgens. It is time to move onto something new. I have built one thirdgen from the groundup basically and started to do the same with the iroc. As much as I love these cars its time to try something new. It will be a few months but I am leaning towards an lt1 Z maybe TA.

Go first gen and put an LS1 in it.

A good compromise in my book.

No, lol, not yet (I wish) I'll have one in the next 3-4 months. I'm going a ground-up restoration with ALL GM parts, and I'm mounting a 502 in her...

If I could afford it I would most definately go LS1, I can barely afford insurance on the LT1 lol. Ah well, could be gettin a stang. Who knows someday when I have more money and get settled down and can afford to replace things left and right I will get another 3rd gen project car. But for now, an LT1 gives good performance, decent mpg, good driveability and looks good and is somewhat affordable.
