We're starting see a few of our favorite time capsules escape from their garages, and this 1987 Chevrolet Camaro IROC Z/28 is a prime example. With amazing metallic red paint, T-tops, a loaded A/C interior, and the ultra-desirable fuel-injected V8 shared with the Corvette, this is a mean machine that at 39,235 miles, it has barely averaged 1,300 miles a year. So you know slipping behind the wheel feels like 1987 all over again.The IROC-Zs are truly stunning machines, and this one is at the top of that class. The factory-correct Dark Red Metallic paint is mostly original, with just a little help making sure the front bumper makes its best first impression. Keep that in mind as you look at how the light evenly radiates off the red that's the level of care that has been put into this car for three decades. But desirability goes far beyond preservation. Chevy knew how to dress its most aggressive Camaro correctly. The full body kit, hood louvers, rear spoiler, and 16-inch IROC-Z alloys are all part of a planned attack as the top V8 Camaro was out to re-take the streets back from the 5.0 Mustangs. Inside is a black interior with gray accents that is exceptionally preserved as well, and the conservative colors still have modern appeal. You'll love the factory pattern on the high-back bucket seats, and they have been so well preserved there isn't even a letter out of place on the "Camaro" stitched into the stylized pattern. The factory three-spoke wheel has been specifically developed for comfortable hand positioning while still getting a clear view at the full gauge package. Like any good IROC-Z, this one came loaded with a power driver's seat, power windows, power locks, tilt steering, electric rear window defogger, cruise control, and power steering. The AM/FM/cassette radio is the one straight from the Norwood, Ohio factory in 1987 (of course, there are plenty of ways to adapt this for modern music without ruining the unit.) Starting to get the picture? This interior is original and honest right down to the included storage bags for the T-top glass. The only part that's not from the factory...the upgrade on the air conditioning to modern R134a. This is to ensure you can continue to feel cool while you look cool with the T-tops off.While the interior and exterior have felt like time capsules, they have nothing on the engine bay. The pristine level of preservation under the hood is another sign of the kind of care you want in a classic that you will cherish. It will fill you with pride as you open the hood at events, and this is the exact kind of motor you're going to be showing off. This is the optional 350 cubic-inch L98 fuel-injected V8 at was shared with the Corvette program. 1987 is a pivotal year because it's the first time the motor became available, and not every IROC-Z got this upgrade. So to have the numbers-matching V8 still under the hood, and with such low mileage, means you're looking at a true Camaro of distinction. But as much as you might want to store this coupe away like precious metal, we don't want you to miss out on all the fun. This car has all the right upgrades like a factory sport-tuned suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and the grip of modern BF Goodrich gForce Super Sport tires. You even have the 700R4 four-speed automatic transmission, which was the only gearbox stout enough to take on the L98, and it also offers overdrive comfort.This amazing IROC comes with the owner's manual and a copy of the window sticker so you can go over all the features of this exceptionally preserved classic. The Camaro you always wanted is available right now, but since the price is so reasonable, you should probably hurry before someone else with the same dream grabs your Z. Call now!!
