88 IROC...yay or nay?
I have a chance to pick up an 88 Iroc 350TPI with 110k for 1k...should I?
There are a few panels in need of replacing and the kid said he'd replace them before anything is signed... I've driven it and it's quick..it has lots of mid range but low end is down. I think it needs a rebuild.
I only want it for a track car... I'm taking it to Bandimere in a little while to see what it'll do I'll post times when I get back...whadda ya think?

If the price is right go for it. I bought a 88 Iroc convertible for my daughter in 1994. I think I had more fun driving it than she did even though if I recall correctly the convertible had a lower hp rating than a coupe. There nice cars.

If I had room, I would consider a 80s type Camaro myself :p:
My husband doesn't know yet but his jeep will now sleep outside :D I'll save that one for last...

Its :cool: , get it, I always wanted an Iroc when I had my Z28, but ended up with a Vette instead, oh well :D . For 1k its worth it, it'll make a good strip car.

He's asking 4 k for it...I was offering him 1k off the price of the red vette for it. If you're still interested email me at tigger4655@aol.com I'll put you in touch with him but to be honest...it's not worth near 4k.
