Default Aww DANG, it's an IROC

**This is not my car, it is my close friend's**

he still rocks a 56k so he has me whore out his car on various sites haha

i'll take it from the top.

This is my friends 1985 IROC Camaro that he's been building for the last few years or so, it isn't done yet, but it's getting close.

Started life as an automatic...



after much dis-assembly and fitting...












Custom Wilwood brakes, he had to fabricate the mounting of these because wilwood doesn't offer a kit for his car, and he wanted Wilwoods




Here are a couple shots when he had it in paint.





Back from paint





Motor is a 388







In car, he put in a 6 speed manual now, much better.





Here are some interior and misc. shots.







And here's pretty much what it's gunna look like once it hits the road.
















Now between then and now a lot had happened, that 388 stripped a distributor gear, metal shaving everywhere, and for caution he ordered a new shortblock (to save time) and started over using AFR heads, and some other odds and ends.

Also, his hood was trashed after a forgotten hood pin incident caused the $1200 hood to turn into a piece of worthless fiberglass. A new hood is in the shop and should be done by the weekend. The hood is the same style and the color scheme will remain the same, but the color will be matched to the wheels.

In order to run a bigger dish the rear axle was swapped out to go back to the third gen which was then built up by a shop. My friend fabbed up a custom caliper mount for the wilwoods in the rear.

The wheels are made by a friend of mine and are a one off set as far as measurements, however the wheel style itself is available in many different platforms. these are 2 piece forged wheels.



Here are some of the exhaust before it was coated.


The exhaust is completely hand made and there is over a month of work into it. the solid pipe side has mufflers within the piping and the gap is for a cut out.











coated, but since it's mounted it was hard to get pictures.







Rear wheels



Custom rear wilwood brake setup







front dish





Rear Dish





excuse the dirty-ness of the engine bay, also gotta clean up some of the wiring.






Rollin'

again this is NOT my car, i just helped.

All good work exept for the exhaust, those welds look like a 5 yr old did them. Good looking 3rd gen, I like the 2nd set of rims better.
