I'm starting this thread hoping to restore my interest in my car and make me take down my for sale ads and get to work!

It started a long time ago when I was 15 and my cool older cousin was selling his '88 iroc. I bought the car and had it insured in the car port before I even had my license. I learned how to drive, drive stick, and generally how to get in trouble in that car. Regrettably I sold it after high school to follow a girl around in Europe on our backpacking trip.

I started looking for clean Irocs after working in the real world for a few years and found the cars around here were over priced for their shape. I started chasing cars in the states and landed on this car I found in Ohio.

I plan to make this the best pro touring Third Gen there is. Motor and car is there but brakes and suspension have a long way to go before it's what I want it to be. Motor and wiring need a few tweaks and I plan on pulling a few more ponies out of her yet.
