Theres something irresistible about a T-Top IROC Z/28. Thats because when you have a 50and#44;000 mile 1987 Chevrolet Camaro like this oneand#44; youre driving a top-of-the-line Chevy sportscar that only gets better with the top-of-the-line motor and great survivor attitude. Its not hard to love an IROC-Z. Either you had oneand#44; or envied one at some time in your lifeand#44; and just like Ray-Ban Aviatorsand#44; these never went out of style. There was just something about the sharp-edge styling and ground effects that made these the kings of the boulevards in the 1980s and 90s. It only got better with T-Tops that let sun in to show everyone the huge grin on your face. Of courseand#44; the one option you absolutely had to have with these cars was the distinctive 16-inch wheels. The champaign hue within the spokes seems to perfectly match the IROC-Z lettering on the doors. Plusand#44; the gold undertones in the Crystal Red Metallic paint really brings the whole package together. You can see all of this particularly well because youre looking at original factory-applied paint that has been babied for the last three decades. Another area that tells you this coupe had the prime space in the garage is the condition of the black hood vents. This combined with the tinted roof glass and black rear panel add to this Zs aggressive appearance. Inside the red gets even bolder with the exceptionally preserved cloth interior. The high-backed bucket seats give modern supportand#44; and their original condition is highlighted by the Camaro stitched into the stylized pattern. Like any good IROC-Zand#44; this one came loaded. It has power seatsand#44; power windowsand#44; power locksand#44; tilt steeringand#44; cruise controland#44; and power steering. The AM/FM/cassette stereo is the one straight from the Norwoodand#44; Ohio factory in 1987 (of courseand#44; there are plenty of ways to adapt this for modern music without ruining the cool originality of the unit.) Starting to get the picture? This interior is original and honest right down to the included storage bags for the T-top glass. The only piece thats not from the factory is the upgrade on the air conditioning to modern R134a. This is to ensure you can continue to feel cool while you look cool with the T-tops off. Under the hood is where this Camaro becomes even more desirable. It was optioned with the top of the line L98 350 cubic-inch fuel-injected V8 that was shared with the Corvette. Thats the same matching numbers motor thats under the hood todayand#44; and it has averaged less than 1and#44;800 miles annually since new. This could only be mated to the stout 700R4 four-speed automatic overdrive transmission because the motor made too much power for the five-speed manual of the day. Having a modern classic like this also means plenty of worthwhile drive upgrades. For exampleand#44; this IROC has four-wheel disc brakesand#44; and the wheels fit modern rubber like the BF Goodrich G-Force Comp-2 tires seen here. This exceptionally well-preserved IROC-Z even comes with the original window sticker and owners manualand#44; so you can pour over all the details whenever you desire. Youre looking at a time machine of the ultimate Camaroand#44; but youre not the only one looking to fulfill the promise you made yourself thirty years agoand#44; so call now! |
