How much do you think I paid for this car?
What did you pay 👀 about 10 thousand?
Worth 18k to 25k but I bet you paid 10k
$15K
12500
16.5
Nice example💯, but like all 1980s, early 90s GM cars quality control at the factory was horrible. 3rd & 4th generation Camaros were known for "Door sag" over time because of the weight of those long heavy doors / unibody construction chassis flex. I would invest in a set of subframe connectors and have them "welded" not bolted to the chassis especially if you plan on adding some Horsepower upgrades....Safe driving with your new toy 😊👍
I did that with my 98 Trans Am a few years ago. Weld in subframe connectors, koni sport shocks, adjustable panhard bar, front strut tower brace. I plan on upgrading front and rear sway bars, and a rear lca relocation.
@@FWDSUXARSE another great mod is BMR tubular K member with polyurethane motor mounts, with tubular upper and lower control arms it will reduce weight out of the car 🏎🏎🏎🏎 🏁
@@imbatman3620 I was considering that too. If I'm replacing the K member, and the motor is out, I'm doing H/C/I as well and all supporting upgrades so that may be further down the line.
I LOVE the Blink182 reference for the license plate!
Thanks to the advancement in car technology, you can make it run as hard as you can imagine. A modern LT1 would be great in this beauty. Just like a coyote engine inside of a 88 fox body. The possibilities are endless 😊
Even an LS engine would be a great choice. Modern LT1 is expensive comparatively. And LS motors are everywhere for a pretty low price with large aftermarket support.
Congratulations! This brings back my high school days. I wanted a Z28 sooooo bad!
Wow, just beautiful!!!
I have the exact car except with red interior vinyl
Yup couldn't get the 350 with tops in 90-92 models. I had an 86 IROC with t-tops 305. Also had a 91 Arctic White Z28, grey leather, and t-tops. That 305 was a dog tho. SLOOOOWWW but beautiful. Should have never got rid of it in 1999. If i would have known then what i know now. Would have loved to do an LS swap and revamp the suspension. im gonna guess you paid 25k.
My guess 26,900 is how much you paid.
Beautiful car! I’d guess you paid about 25k for it.
Black over red…what a great color combo. Interior looks fantastic! I remember when these were new. Loved them and the Pontiac Trans Am GTA. Nice purchase!
Very nice car. Great color combination, too.
When I worked at a dealership back in the 80's I got to drive a 5.0L TPI with 5-spd, what a blast! That, to me, is a wonderful combination. Lugging in second gear and rolling into the throttle you could break into serious wheelspin without warning. From a rolling stop I spun tires through the first three gears, chirped into fourth, and had well buried the speedo by fifth. Again, what a blast!
The red interior is sick as hell. And the license plates “rocshow” is cool too. Very nice buy. Congratulations. And for the black paint. Everyone knows black is the hardest paint to clean and keep clean. Black paint looks great at night. But during the day you can notice the swirls.
Gorgeous car. Really makes me miss my 1987 IROC-Z. My favourite of all the cars I've owned, and one I never should have sold. The red interior of yours is in incredible condition. Hopefully you can minimize its time in direct sunlight, as that interior is known to fade really badly (most of the original red interiors, now days all these decades later, are more pink than red). That car must have been garaged most of its entire life. Be nice if you could source some repro VR50 Gatorbacks for it.
Sweet ride! Sold my 89 six years ago. Had that same red interior, personally it was the only thing i did not like about it. The gray or black interior blended much better ....mine was the tpi 350 as well w/ t-tops..
Wauu.... one of the most beautiful iroc z 🎉i had ever seen in this 2023 , take a good care the baby iroc ,its a icon
For the loose vents - go to the auto parts store and get a pack of generic o-rings. Put an o-ring around the male side of the vent that snaps into the hole in the dash. Voila. This will make your vents stay in place like a new car
That’s some genius sh*t right there. Love that. Well done.
I've done this on MINI Coopers which the vents love to flop on those as well.
Doing that on mine too. Thanks for the tip! 😁
The best looking Camaro ever made. I didn't know a 1990 could have 3.23 gears with the 5.7. I was 19 when this car was made. I was a Mustang GT fan back then.
The 1990 Camaro and Mustang GT definitely a hard choice to pick!!!
You are correct about the T-Tops. In either 89 or 90 (I am pretty sure it was 90) they stopped offering T-Tops because the torque from the 350 engine was causing the T-Tops to crack in previous years of the car. You could get them with the 305 however and of course the V6. 😁
These cars really benefit from subframe connectors.
I didn't race it or anything, but I put a 350 my '82 Trans Am and it stayed straight for years.
Yes it is correct also because back in 1994 I bought an 1989 Trans Am GTA with t-tops and the 350. The previous owner told me it was the last year to get that package for the GTA and IROC. Great cars but yes the torque was insane and the t-tops leaked cause the bar cracked, it was noticed when car was being repainted.
Gorgeous. Had an big IROC poster in my college dorm room to remind me if I studied hard, I could eventually buy ones. I actually ended up buying a new Trans Am in 92 when I graduated and still have. Love 3rd gens!
@@papamario8Same with the hard tops with engine mods.
Dude hell yes!!!!!!!!!!! You need to make a ton of videos on this!
What would you like to see?
EVERYTHING!!!! Please go nuts with videos on thus IROC!!
Guessing...$36k...love it.
Im with @phillymikea cover everything!!!
Wow, congratulations very nice. 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Play some 80s hairband music with that car . 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
I love the IROC Camaros and for a car that's over 30 years old, I think you have bought a jewel!
Beautiful IROC-Z,, I own a 1988 Pontiac Trans Am GTA WS6 with C&C T-tops (Cars & Concepts) black exterior and Beachwood or tan interior cloth not leather and it has the L98 TPI 350, C&C actually reenforced the T-style roof with internal and external bracing due to the torque of the 350 where Fisher style did not thus why all the creeks and twisting that came from little enforcement
By 1988 most of the higher level cars (IROC-Z \GTA) came in monotone paint schemes which look pretty good, GM actually lost the contract and or rights to International Race Of Champions in early 1990 thus why very few were wearing the IROC-Z badges and GM went back to just Z-28 again all the way until the early 2000's where Camaro had the SS logo back until its bitter end in 2002 so owning these cars is like owning a cool piece of GM history that will not be produced ever again
The L98 was the precursor to the LT1 and that held on until the LS1 the rest is history
I sold my 91 Z28 and my 1989 Firebird Formula. Now I sit in regret.😂
Congratulations. 340 ft.-lbs. from the factory in 1990! Dual cats, discs all around, oil cooler, etc.. I bought my black on black L98 hardtop TA new from Bountiful Brothers Pontiac 33 years ago and still have it. Paint correction a few years ago got rid of the swirls and a few minor scratches. It will be around after i'm gone!
Was Bountiful Brothers Pontiac located in Bountiful, UT by chance?
@@ReynoldsRides Yes it was. I'm between the Oquirrh and the Stansbury mountain ranges.
Where did you have your paint correction done? Did they do a good job?
@@ReynoldsRides JNG in Salt Lake next to I-15. They work on a lot of high end vehicles. It wasn't cheap but they made the ~30 year old paint look almost brand new so it was worth it to me
What an awesome car! Great color combo. I was 19 in 1990 & a Pontiac guy so I lusted after the Formula 350.
Same age and same here. Something about that formula name on the side and it looked sleeker to me than the Iroc but this one is still a beautiful ride none the less.
I had an 89 Trans am GTA with the 5.7 and t-tops and got rid of it 10 years ago. I still miss it and kick myself!
The original tires look like the famous "Gator Backs". I loved those tires back in the day.
Paid 20 k ish
My guess 1 owner these cars are becoming very hard to find nice straight ones like this and for the people saying 8 or 10 or 12 are living under a rock for a car this nice
Beautiful ride. Now I'm thinking about my 82 Z28 and 85 tpi trans am I once owned.
From 1990 on you could not get the 350 with TTops like you could from 87 to 89.
I think its worth $19K, but if you found it in Hemmings then add $5,000.
N10 is a good RPO. So is G80 and G92. This one has everything!
CLEAN! Congrats.
My dream is a GTA. I drove Trans Am's growing up.
But I always liked those IROC's. That's a beaut.
Beautiful color combination, I prefer the hardtop. Mine is an '88 IROC 305auto metallic gray with DX3 sticker delete and rear defogger delete. Only 1900 miles, still smells new.
nice...put some miles on that machine!
@@gordocarbo You're right! ...lol
One of GM's most beautiful bodystyles
That generation of F-body was the most beautiful in the history of the vehicles. I know the interior is a sad thing and the trunk area (hatch) was mind-numbingly stupid in its efficiency, but that car is a stunner. Plus it is in black with a red interior! OMG! I generally loathe anything GM has made (and everything since Heir Yutz joined the company to ruin it along with the Witch Barra).
Nah, it’s beautiful but best ever? Nope . The 67-69s were the most beautiful by far
@@leehouston5436Nah.
All in the beholder. The split front bumper 70 1/2 silver w black ss stripes was pretty sexy
I haven't had a Marlboro and years. But I'll never quit loving the F body.
I love that car, the design is timeless. In the rare occasion whenever you see one of these cars on the road you have to look and just admire it!
80's camaro's were dogs, cool people had 1967-1972 Camaro's, nerds an preppies drove Irocs
@@bobsilver3983hahahaha. We didn't call them turd gens for no good reason.
Amazing car.
I would not want a t-top car. I drove a 305 t-top car in 1987. Might have bought it but the insurance was way to much.
Chevy never offered the 5 speed transmission with the 350 in the third gens, all the 350 irocs were automatic only. Awesome car!!
Beautiful…makes me really miss my ‘88 IROC.
I will always have a soft spot for the GM F-body/platform. I miss my 89 TA all the time, but then I look at the fuel prices these days and that feeling passes again. Yours is a beautiful car...almost looks like she just rolled off assembly. Enjoy it and drive it whenever you can. Cheers!
If I drive my 88 305 Camaro real easy I can get 24 mpg highway...
Gas prices? You live in California or something? Here in Florida gas is mid 3 dollars.
@@LynxStarAuto Here in Canada It's almost $2/liter or $8/gallon for all you freedom unit folk.
@@Eremon1sad to hear that gas is so expensive over there.
As far as replacing the fuel pump drive the car till it goes out because you will not like all the work it takes to get the fuel tank out LOL LOL LOL. The shop manual says eight and a half hours but if you do it right and be very careful so you do not scratch or damage your car try about 20 hours. And if you're going to replace shocks and all rubber grommets now's the time to do it.
Damn I hope you saved those gator back tires, they are worth money… I’ve heard the same about the 350 and t-tops. I have a 92 1LE. I think it was the G92 option that you couldn’t get with t-tops. I think your leak is coming from the weap hole in the bottom of the water pump. If it is, you should call Edelbrock, get the aluminum reverse flow water pump. Put a 180 thermostat in it and it will never over heat if you keep the lower air deflector in place(the one underneath the car, near the front sway bar). Great job on the car, it is beautiful. 1990 is the best year if you want an IROC. I’m going to guess that you paid 22K, because the market has fallen a bit. Realistically, it should be a 25-30K car I believe, but let me know if I’m wrong.
Yes in 1990 you couldn't get a factory t-top with a 350 because of torque But!! They used to b company call C&C= CAR& CONCEPT they built there own t-top n couple of 1990 iroc-z got send there by dealerships special orders there out there I have one
I bought an '82 Z28 right off the showroom floor for less than $14,000. Silver with Blue interior, T-tops, the works. I loved that car.
Edit: Just found my old pics of this car. It was a charcoal interior, not blue.
And by the way I'm the second owner bought it from my neighbors they're old and retired. Had 48,000 miles and I bought it it's only 58,000 on it now 17 years later
Glad to see a new video from you.
Very sweet ride👍. I had an '89 Iroc-Z and it had the same "mind of it's own" AC vent option. LOL
I've been removing my exhaust systems having them sand blasted, air blow all the sand off and use that vht silver 2000 degre paint, which holds up much better than ceramic coating and can be touched up at any time and does not discolor...
I had a white one 1990 loved that car
Holy shit, that's a beautiful car.
Nice looking car. A little paint correction and a ceramic or graphene coating and you'll be at a 10. I actually like that it didn't have T-tops......
Those will always be the best version of the camaro! What a beautiful part of GM history I had a convertible one I would still have it but we got laid off I needed the money clear title it had 180 thousand miles still sold for 18 grand !
I love this car. As a 12 year old, barely 5 feet, I sneaked out with my brother's IROC with two pillows on the driver's seat. I drove around five blocks and nobody found out. I got away with it. LOL
Beautiful car!! You did everything I would have done. Change oil, WIX filter, air foil, etc. The 1990 Camaro production run ran from August 1989 through Dec 18, 1989 with 34,986 units produced. Total cars with the 350 L98/B2L was 2,415. Yours seems to be fairly late in the production run. The IROC trademark expired on Dec 31 1989 at midnight so that's why the '90 model was such a short run. 1991Camaro production started in February 1990 and ran a long 18 months to August 1991. Congratulations on your purchase!
Great info. Thanks for sharing.
That's a 91/92 instrument panel speedo/ tachometer I'm pretty sure I had a 92 z/28 91 and up no tTop yes on 5.7 trans am was the same
Yes it's true you could not get a factory T-top with a 350 TPI engine because they did not make the body rigid enough for it to handle
Super nice survivor
Do a Ammo NYC detail and have the under carriage dry ice blasted
Enjoy
Got a 88 Iroc-Z 5.7 wit T-Tops. All black with the blue stripe on da bottom. 😤😤😤
I have a 87 love it and it fast!!
I just about gave up on your videos. Welcome back and nice car! I'd say $22,000.
Had a friend who bought one new. He got a Maryland tag, personalized, which read "And roll".
My guess is you paid between 15000 to $25,000 if you paid lower than that you got a really great deal
I designed and built the trim die for that distributor cover, its an aluminum diecast part and was made in butler Indiana.7:30
My Dad has the exact same car, clean one owner all original except his is a manual and convertible.
As far as I know T tops and convertibles only came with a 305 V8
I saw L98 so, wicked
Oooooooooh. What a great car. Had a 88 Irocz with a Lingenfelter top end 350. Loved that car. Some day I hope to own another.
Better buy one while you can. There going up in value and they're not getting cheaper.
I still have mine. Bought new. Never gonna sell it. First thing i did was chip it and it ran 13.6 with the gatorbacks. Still love it
What year?
@@ReynoldsRides 86 bought in 85
My 305 did a second quicker in the 1/4 took that out and dropped a 6.0 ls in it. Best move ever
@@ChrisGarage ls rocks
Hypertech?
A lot of classics coming out of Missouri these days. This is the 5th video this week Ive seen where a classic was coming out of my home state. What a clean IROC. That red interior looks badass.
I had buddies that had these Irocs in the 80s that they bought new - this car looks cleaner than theirs after all these years - incredible condition!
Good deal nice car. Always liked t/a they had more power and style. 👍
Glad to see you back! I was wondering if you had stopped making content. Beautifull IROC!!
Thanks!
I'm totally jealous!!!! I definitely hope you keep that car!!
why? 80's cars sucked
After 10 months a new video 👍
Sucks you cant get the Goodyear gatorbacks anymore
did this car have a Van Halen cassette and a pack of Pall Malls?
Man you got you a gem ,I hate that I had to get rid of my "1986"
Somewhere around $26k would be my guess.
Beautiful vehicle. Ashame it is just an automatic.
Nice ride,had a 85 tpi 305,did all kinds of motor work and sensor adjustments with factory chip got it down 13.8,ended up with 240k on the car,have fun with it,I have to add that the braks suck on it be safe
believe me, be glad you don't have T-Tops. You will be twisting the chassis all day long. Plus a 350 wasn't offered in any T-Top F-body from the factory (Firebird or Camaro). Just like 5-speed was never offered with a 350. Very nice car though.
You’re right on the 5 speed part but you can get a 350 with t tops. It’s pretty common.
Eh, t-tops are great, but the other disadvantage besides frame rigidity is leaking. Especially at that car's age. Third and 4th gens are notorious for it. Also that dash vent.... I had an '85 Camaro and that very vent did the same thing. Folded piece of paper and it was good to go. My guess is $17K.
👍👊
My friends dad had one. I wanted his Camaro so bad.
superb iroc man...back in the 80s i had an 83 v6 camaro...couldnt afford an iroc...but i almost put on the iroc package ground effects...i was going to call it...the imoc-z
Very very nice ! Congratulations 😮
Congrats. I too would want to tops. But u got a beauty
Beautiful car! $18-22K
Very nice 20000 , a buff and paint will be 10
Unless there's something I dont know about with this car there is no reason to change the fuel pump. You have a fresh filter in there thats all you need to do. Fuel pumps dont need to be changed just to do it.
I like my 87 Grand National
Where's your video? I like '89 Turbo TAs.
30k is my guess on the cost.
You did awesome. Ya .little stuff .not bad .
NEW this '90 with the 5.7 ltr motor stickered at approx. 21K - 33 years later these IROC''s as collectibles are starting to ascend in value. Not pristine this example is still solidly clean so we're guessing you acquired it for $17,500 - We look forward to hearing the actual figure but we believe we're close. Absolutely loved this era of Z28 production run. Many Thanks Yo ! 💯
I liked the earlier Z steering wheels better, than those padded steering wheels that LOOKED like a airbag
I ordered a loaded '87 IROC w/5.7 back in mid-late 1986.
It msrp'd @ $19,993.00
@@danielfair4675 Would not buy anything with a 3rd brake light that ruined the car.1985 was the last good year.
Beautiful camaro Iroc 🚘🔥🔥👍. I had a 87 5.7 Iroc with the T-tops with the performance Axle & rear disk. I believe 89 was the last year on the T-tops for the 350 on the camaro, due to body twist. I know the Trans AM was the first to faze them out with the 5.7 87 to 88. The upside is, you have a better handling ride. The flex was an easy fix with bolt-on's. Nice purchase dude ✨️🚘👍
$15k it’s gorgeous and I’m sure you bought it right!! Disappointed it wasn’t a low mile SN95 😂😂
He lives on my block he drives an iroc 🎉
We had that exact same spec but for 1988. It’s like watching my car on TV. Absolutely loved it. Congratulations!!
$14,000. Paints not perfect, Tires were toast, no T-tops, That's my guess. If you got it for that you did REALLY well as it looks like a very clean well preserved Iroc. Thanks for sharing your amazing Camaro! Looks like a really smart purchase.
