@@Deez30224 sorry but I just can not get used to that big bulky body of a current Camaro. I know the platform is Superior but to me they just do not resemble a F body in any way.

Just like the grand national... Just my opinion.
PhillLsx Ga. A black 00-02 WS6 6-speed is in my opinion one of the coolest cars ever made and definitely a car I want to get in the future. The reason for getting rid of my Iroc was because it was a 305 auto and I didn’t have the cash to do what I really wanted to do with it. And when I got in my LS3 6-speed it was a night and day difference lol.

In '86, I came home from school to see a brand-new Dark Red Metallic IROC in the driveway. I asked Mom, "Who's is this?!" "Mine!" she says as Dad rolled his eyes :D Ever since, I've been in love with this body style so to see what you've done with this one; good Lord, it's GORGEOUS and sounds perfect
I had an '87 Camaro RS-Limited that I bought brand new for $20K and had it made over with the hood and decals to look like an IROC-Z. Shortly thereafter I got married and sold it for $6k with maybe 30k miles on it, or not even that. My wife, 33 years later, is still mad about it. When I showed her a few of these videos and she saw that these are selling for $35K now, boy was she miffed.

Holy hell man that thing is damn gorgeous. I really like seeing things I might actually be able to afford one day, rather than just the wild million dollar builds. Just coz it don’t have a thousand horsepower that don’t mean it shouldn’t get a video

That is a awesome result. These are the best builds. No flairs, or some weird body modifications, some nasty metal work that does not do anything. Jus a nice clean totally functional race ready car. Awesome.
That is awesome. I had a 1986 Z-28. I just upgraded the heads, ignition, removed the smog equipment, and put a corvette servo in the 700R4 transs in mine. Just that made a huge power difference.
Best build I've ever seen on a 3rd Gen great job. Thing is with the money you put into converting that one I'm betting your damn close if not above and beyond paying for a 2014-2015.
This was one of thee cars to have in the 90's. Especially in high school. I was in high school in the early to mid 90's. When the new F-Body Camaros & Firebirds came out. So having the IROC style and the new F-Body Camaro/Firebird/Trans Am were thee cars to have. I had the pleasure of riding in a red 1992 Camaro RS and in a red F-Body Firebird. The Firebird was quick as heck. Both were V6
This is beautiful! The LS7 by itself is 505 hp, so a heads and cam upgrade bringing this engine to 650 hp is wow!, so excellent! This is why I prefer a big inch LS engine or a big block. I love a small block Chevy, but a big block Chevy or a big inch LS engine is changing my mind.👌👍
one of the finest IROC-Zs I've seen to date ! I like how the original formula of the 3rd gen 80s car was freshened up with modern components of the zeta generation Z/28, especially the mighty 427 in it !
Its always nice to see old school meets new school technology with minimal upgrades goes to show they had the ride idea but technology in the car world was lagging behind back then, took 20 yrs for everything to come together.
@MrChad97Z you are totally right! I totally agree! What a disaster!! I can't stand them! All to be cheap. GM took the cheapest way out by using a existing Holden platform that looked like crap and through suspension tried to make it handle. What a joke!! I didn't fall for it! I have one of the last TRUE F bodies and I enjoy it!! And BTW, the IROC Z is definitely my favorite body style Camaro by far! They looks so tough!!
Looks great! In my 20s, I had an 84 Z28 with a Herb Adams upgraded front and rear suspensions, mainly beefy sway bars, and it could out-corner any car. It was a stripped down 305 HO (no smog pump), 5 spd w/short shift Hurst,TB work, 3 inch no cat Banks exhaust, and 4:10 rear. I could take on and off ramps at fantastic speeds. I can only imagine what the Detroit Speed set-up is like. When I'm done paying off my daily driver next year, I hope to find a clean 80's F-Body to work with for my 50th birthday treat. HP is great but you have to be able to plant it! Love this car!
what an incredible car. exquisite craftsmanship guys, im blown away! i hope to be doing an lsx swap next year on my 88 formula im currently in the process of restoring. ill be going through you guys as much as i can.
This is one of the sickest builds I've seen in some time. That 3rd gen looks right at home amongst todays popular hot rods especially with all the trick stuff done to it. Congrats on a super nice ride!!
phaze 1 hah I just ask the same question! It’s weird to me that to this day nobody is making after market parts for the 3rd gen, I mean we can’t even buy clear tail lights for it.
@@J2A61 yeah your right! I also have been reaching out to klearz, they are suppose to have the clear, red, and smoked tail lights for the camaro's. My car is all custom and i have to get people to make custom pieces for me.

@@sidefx996 that's a good question I have changed the engine to a 383,custom dana rearend and tubular control arms and other mods but still have all the original stuff mine only has 41,000 on car and 23,500 on original motor but would be nice to build it the way Chevrolet should have.

Brad: YES
Me: Still > 😍🥰😘
This is one of the sickest builds I've seen in some time. That 3rd gen looks right at home amongst todays popular hot rods especially with all the trick stuff done to it. Congrats on a super nice ride!!
My dream to build a T TOP IROC
That is one of if not the nicest camaros i have seen in a long time makes me miss the one my dad have when i was little
What did it cost to build this ?
Awsome build IROC Z28!!
About 55,000
Major Props for knowing where the track was! I couldn't follow the cones to save my life💯🙌🤟
Good job guys!! Do you guys sell the front spitter?
phaze 1 hah I just ask the same question! It’s weird to me that to this day nobody is making after market parts for the 3rd gen, I mean we can’t even buy clear tail lights for it.
@@J2A61 yeah your right! I also have been reaching out to klearz, they are suppose to have the clear, red, and smoked tail lights for the camaro's. My car is all custom and i have to get people to make custom pieces for me.
every single 3rd gen owner wants one of these
By far the best rebuild I've seen. Sick!
It's such a good looking car. It's really a shame that they were such dogs when they were new.
Love this car,I remember when my cousin ordered his brand new same year car and color,awesome build here!
Perfect guy to explain this car. He just needs a mullet
With the anemic 80s it's nice to see this vehicle gets the power it looks like it has.... Gorgeous
Brad lives in the same town I do. I've seen and heard this car in person. Beautiful and sounds amazing! Best looking 3rd gen I've ever seen.
What a gorgeous car.
Those tail lights need to be tinted ASAP
Hats off to you guys now that is a true Camaro and in my eyes the mona lisa of streetcar racing
Because this car I have those Recaro 5th Gen seats in my car too! The are sooooo comfy! Also thank you Hawks for all the parts for 3rd Gens Nightmare ZL1 would not have been possible without y'all, keep doing great things!
Lol, I used to love beating irocs with my 1986 mustang LX 5.0
WCTA Chicago underground sound yeah I got beat by a few 😭 back in the day I even had the 5.7
Odd, since 86 stang actually dropped hp from 85 down to about 200 in 86. 1/4 mile times are almost a full second faster for the camaro. 🤔
I have a 89 IROC 1LE same color this has been my vision to do the same build awesome car guys.
lilroc89 awesome car. Are we at a point where we want to start keeping cars like yours original and build off something else? Damn I don't think it gets much better than this car in the video lol
@@sidefx996 that's a good question I have changed the engine to a 383,custom dana rearend and tubular control arms and other mods but still have all the original stuff mine only has 41,000 on car and 23,500 on original motor but would be nice to build it the way Chevrolet should have.
This thing is NASTY
This is a dream car for so many people and you guys did it right!
Thumbs down people can't afford to do this to there Iroc
Jovaan Mills i have a clean 90, I would never do this puke to it, fucked up a nice ride.
Reminds me of my dad's 84 z28...such a fun car to drive.
This restoration actually looks nice !!! 👍🏾
3rd gens take the bag when it comes to maros, hands down my favorite all time car
