Sport suspension became standard and the F41 option was
discontinued. The IROC Sport Equipment package was available only
on the Z28, and 49,585 buyers spent $659 to get it."

For consignment, a 1986 Chevrolet Camaro IROC Z28 coupe with an
astounding title verified 9,333 actual miles. This garage kept
example is all original with our consignor noting only the muffler
has been replaced during their stewardship.
Exterior
In pure 80's style, this Z is designed with two stage White paint
with accents that include black and gold rocker stripes, the
coveted IROC decals, and gold embellished 16-inch five spoke
wheels. Chevrolet's tuned port injection is also advertised
modestly under the rocker's Z28 badge and if you could read it, the
car gained some additional red light street cred back in the day.
Distinct hood vents also let challengers know this is no ordinary
Camaro and black trimmed tail lights and headlight bezels are also
characteristic. Twin chrome tips, angle cut, emerge out back and
this one is a solid roof car, thus avoiding the T-top era 80's
jokes. Overall, the body and paint are in great shape with
imperfections noted as a scratch on the nose along with some
discoloration, a ding in the cladding on the door, some edge wear,
build up around the white side molding, chipped stripe decal, and
some chin scuffs.
Interior
Handsome and clean is what we are greeted with when opening the
doors, here in Saddle brown panels with diagonal design over
carpeted lowers, topped by black switchgear and door handles in
pristine condition. Diagonal accenting continues on the cloth
bucket seats, tan piping that blends in and smooth inserts. All
four seats present nicely and sidewall plastic in back still
shines. The three spoke steering wheel fronts a black plastic
instrument cluster housing the standard package, spotless, and
partnered with a center console that holds the A/C panel and Delco
AM/FM/Cassette radio, and all still could be photographed for the
1986 sales brochure and the center console and shifter do not veer
from this condition. Nor do the tan carpet and GM branded mats, the
smooth headliner, or the rear cargo area that probably has seen
more light during our photo session than at any other time. It's
that clean.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is a clean bay housing a 305ci HO V8 with 190
horsepower and fuel injection. It's mated to the era-ubiquitous
700R4 4-speed automatic transmission that routes power to the
equally common 10 bolt GM rear and 3.23 gears.
Undercarriage
Underneath, we find generally very clean conditions with typical
age induced surface rust and coloration, along with some residual
oil on the flywheel cover. The single exhaust enters a FlowMaster
muffler and exits as two pipes and long, chrome tips. Coil springs
are found front and rear with a torque arm in back and the brakes
are configured as power disc and power drum, front and rear
respectively.
Drive-Ability
We step back in time once again as this '86 presents as a full on
time capsule; it not only looks the part, but the engine fires up
and delivers a spirited ride and handling these cars were known
for. A comfortable and clean interior provides good visibility and
a relaxed posture that's mixed with a race-inspired cockpit. The
icing on this white cake includes all functions working as they
should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions
were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee
these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
In the 80's we drove F-bodies left over from the 1970's. If you
went to high school in the 90's, you might have been lucky enough
to drive a Z28 like this, and you were a really big man on campus
if it happened to be an IROC. This may be one of the lowest mileage
examples in the country, a well preserved relic of a special time.
Collectors and museums take note; not many like this around!
