What to call new IROC-Z? Submit ideas:
James:
"I have been painstakingly thinking since Sunday on what to call your third gen.If the 01 is Black Sunshine ( Actually Blacksunshine II) Then are you going to call the Third Gen "Black Mullet"????It's the best I could come up with. "
It is black, 88 IROC-Z. Not rusty, but not pretty. Could have potential, after a few years of driving as a beater.
The original owner does sport a mullet, funny you suggested that James. Didn't find any Ratt, Cinderella, or Poison tapes in the car, but did find Pantera, and it worked just fine. Also found a nice lock blade knife, (no blood on it
, dont laugh, the guy lives in Flint.
So, we have BlackSunshine4, & Black Mullet. If you like those, let me know, or post some ideas..

I would have to go with Black Mullet. I do remember seeing a few guys running around with Mullets back then.
I got pulled over by the Roseville cops when my IROC was new and he said he though I stole the car because I had long hair. I had just put the first coats of wax on her and he said I didn't look clean enough to drive that nice a car. Just another example of Roseville finest.
Almost 16 years later I wish I had some hair.
I have a lot of stock parts for a 87 to 89 IROC with TPI. Cams,injectors,gears,converters,polished wheels,tires, exhaust manifold and on and on if you need something to get The Black Mullet running. Just post what you need and I will see if I have it.
------------------
87 IROC L98 700R4 A few mods. Best et 12.96 at 110 mph
All motor No NOS or Supercharger.
96 WS6 FORMULA Best et 13.5 at 105 mph

He said "TurdGen"....LOL
You werent $hit back in 88 if you didn't have a mullet when driving a IROC.
I had a mullet & didn't even know it was a mullet, how sad is that? At my age now, I'm just happy to have hair
Who wants to see the pic of my mullet? NOT.
Looke like a good one James, Black Mullet is winning out. We'll have to let this one float for awhile, to get the majority vote.

Harold there was a guy that I got my 4th gen seats from that had a new tank for sale. He was parting out a 86 IROC. His # was 586 731/3300. He was in Shelby TWP. His board name was Valu8or1.
Chris I know a couple of Berger SS Camaros with 380 H.P. stickers on the hood that didn't like my turd gen killing them.

When I hear "Mullet" the first thought that comes to mind is Joe Dirt (Deartay). What a way to grow up! LOL!!!!! How about "Black Deartay"? Just an idea.

As I am rolling home in the Mustang from work today I past a beautiful 3rd gen.It was a 91-92 Z28 Convertible.Red with red leather.It was absolutely gorgeous.It was'nt as nice as mine but it made me homesick.I like the way the Fox body Mustangs look,But set a 3rd gen and a Fox side by side and the 3rd gen just blows them away.God I miss my Camaro.
BTW I am still voting for Black Mullet
