My new project.... (warning... 80's hot rod inside!!)
I have a special place in my heart for these.
This is my 6th F body, I have owned (in order)
an 84 berlinetta 2.8
an 87 formula 4 bbl
an 86 IROC-Z 5.0 TPI
a 97 Z28
a 92 5.0 RS
it's an 85 IROC-Z, 305 TPI auto. runs great, 92K origional miles on it. it needs some tlc, i'm going to fix a few things and do the interior before i have it painted. but first this weekend its getting a bath! the wheels and trim are/were gold so i'm going to keep that gold and paint the car black. hopefully next spring it'll look like an IROC again.

not likely i'll change it. maybe if i do an LSX swap and get a killer deal on one with a 6 speed.
yep. i have paint plans already.
only an idiot would do that. hell chevy wasn't even dumb enough to produce the 350 with the borg warner T-5.
the only picture in existence i know of was taken in january of 92, and i haven't seen it since the summer of that year.
