Boys and their toys

We just traded a 1987 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z28, for a obscene amount of money, even if it is a rare imported US car.

It was going to go to Shannon's auctions, but now, its going in my boss' shed for *keeps*.

Right hand drive?

Its been converted Bruce to be *right*.

The late '80s IROCs were nice...and they actually had some kick to them. That's like a white trash dream car these days.

And it's either an IROC-Z or a Z28...they were two different Camaro styles. Silly women.

Before I get chastised, let me chastise myself: There was indeed an IROC-Z28 style for 1987. Mea culpa...my apologies...I was wrong.

That's so weird to me, the people that drive 3rd gen Camaros in the states usually still wear acid wash jeans and mullets. I guess it's how driving a BMW carries some prestige in the states.

Winger, anyone? Pantera?

elSicomoro · 08-28-2007, 04:05 PM

Hey, you shut the fuck up about Pantera...they still rule, even with a dead guitarist!

Griff · 08-28-2007, 04:06 PM

In fact, they're better with a dead guitarist.

elSicomoro · 08-28-2007, 04:07 PM

Yeah! Hey, wait a minute...

Oooh loved Winger - Kip has the nicest set of - teeth.

Never did care about those few years of Camaros (that body style), the doors were way to heavy and the hinges wore out quickly.

But the $5 replacement bronze bushings, unlike the plastic factory originals, last forever. Just a royal pain in the ass to replace.

I own Winger's first CD...I'm not ashamed.

My first car was a '76 Camaro, but when April and I strike it rich, I'd like to buy/restore an older one--like a '69 or '70.
