LOL but that car was state of the art when me and my friends were in high school. We all had those and 5.0 GT's. I'd love to have one even if they are slow by todays standards.

I was in high school when these things came out,my dream car back then was an '87-'89 Bright Blue IROC with the Gray cloth interior,TPI 350,and no T-tops

I'd love to find an all original one today,even though they are slow by todays standards,like you said...back then they were "state of the art" and the car to have.

A V6 WIN!!!!!

When ever your V6 is ready just let us know..I'm sure there is a 502 from that generation that would be more than happy to race your V6 car for pink slips

But as long as its your dream ...it will always be your dream :p

was a cool video ...but all i could think of is where the hell was the wheels that came on it...even in 85 they didn't come with mud tires on them

I never tire of watching that video. We were helping the owner's employee freshen this car up in a thread on TGO. At the same time, I was looking for a new hood insulation pad for my '83 Crossfire. I had searched for months for a new original part. Nothing anywhere. I bought a couple of crappy repro's off of ebay, but I wasn't happy with them.

One day, I opened the "4 mile IROC" thread on TGO and the guy restoring it had ordered a hood insulation pad for this IROC. He posts a picture and says, why does this one have a big hole in the middle with an aluminum heat shield on one side and what do I do with this thing now? Apparently, he had accidentally gotten the VERY LAST new in the box from GM Crossfire hood insulation. I immediately PM'd him and bought it!
