In about 1992 I bought a 1988 Iroc-Z 1LE off a friend of mine. Yeah look that up. Super rare and I did not have a clue how rare until long after I sold it. Anyhow, the car was mint but driven super hard it’s entire life until I sold it. The car loved being driven at 240km/h. Loved it. And I’m not talking for a few miles. Think about driving that fast for about 70kms.
I bought the car for 9000. What a steal it was. It still looked brand new when I sold it and it had about 80000kms on it. It ran 14.5 in the quarter at 99mph with consistent terrible 2.2s 2.3 sixty foots.
While I had the Iroc, my cousin had bought a 1980 Z28 off another guy we knew. It was in a field but was in pretty solid shape. It had some head work, cam, intake, headers and exhaust. Friggin car was way faster than the Iroc. Not top speed though. I bought the car off my cousin for $600. Fastest car I ever bought for the price. I never did license it under my name. My brother and I would bolt other plates on and take it street racing. It was fast.
The crap I did growing up makes me shake my head and wonder how we aren’t dead.
Mind you the stuff I still do........ummm
