Re: IROC Lovers?
I saw this on CL. It wont pass smog and the guy says it needs everything. 140,000 miles on a broken odometer. He's asking $13,000 for it.

Did I mention that the air pump, and air tubes as well as all the other emissions stuff is still on this car? I know you Cali guys probably hate me huh? I’m just gonna yank the whole motor and transmission complete and store them in the shop when I do the engine swap. That way I’ve got all the original stuff if I ever sell it. I think my son is going to get this car as his DD when he is old enough to drive. (He’s almost 6 so we’ve got time)

Re: IROC Lovers?
It’s home!!! It was a bit of a pain in the ass getting it on the trailer because of how low the factory ground effects are but we got on without tearing anything up. I bought this car as a long term project for me and my only son Cole. Today was the first time he saw the car up close. I think he approves! I can’t get over how clean this car is having sat so long. There’s no rust anywhere other than the surface rust from the blistered paint.

Re: IROC Lovers?
Power washing anyone? This car is 100% original as best I can tell. Crazy to see all the original hoses and such. And how clean it really is. I hope to pull the plugs and start lubing the cylinders and such soon. Gonna pull the tank and clean it as well as replace the pump/sending unit and filter before attempting to start it.

Re: IROC Lovers?
Aw man, you washed away all the "barn find" dust that would've brought you thousands more at auction
Under the hood cleaned up really nice. That's a great one to document originality from. I wonder if the fuzzy seat covers ended up protecting the seats from heavy sun damage?

Re: IROC Lovers?
That motor cleaned up real nice. The seats too. This car just keeps getting better and better.
As clean as it is I would be really tempted to just repaint it and keep it stock. Especially if you plan on tossing the keys to a 16 year old. Remember back when you were 16. I was a terror and so were my kids at that age. My youngest is 30 now and my oldest is 40. They have calmed down substantially. The jury is still out on me. Now they tell me to grow up.

Re: IROC Lovers?
That's the problem with a really nice original car. You don't really want to mess with it. The paint is a given. You have to do that and the broken wheel but everything else looks good.
Here's your justification for another car. Tell your wife that you have to have another one that isn't so nice to hot rod. It'll work. Trust me. I'm good at making excuses. I've only had 15 women leave me.

Re: IROC Lovers?
Amazing before and after engine pics. Even the hoses look good but I don't know if I would trust them.
If you keep the current engine I would pull the injectors and have them cleaned and flowed. Have you tried turning it over with the crank pulley bolt? Just FYI there is a company in the MPLS area called TPIS. Tuned port engines were their thing back in the day. |

Re: IROC Lovers?
Maybe some real high pressure air thru the fuel lines disconnected at the engine side?
What does the trans fluid look like? |
