Hi all,

Just joined PH and introduced myself in the Yank Cars section. I'm James, I'm 23 and from Sussex. Here's some pics of my 1987 Camaro IROC-Z with the 5.0 TPI V8. I'm chuffed to bits with her and took advantage of a nice evening to get some shots!

Forgive my rubbish photography skills, also the first picture had an RV behind the car which I've edited out. Please check out all my pics at http://s276.photobucket.com/albums/kk3/IROC-Z_305/

Cheers smile

Not as bad as you'd think on gas, I got about 25mpg on the run home. Out and about she's doing 20/21.

As far as i can remember it does! Hasnt been on the road since 2006, so im selling it now to get something a bit more useable for our hobbies, see the VW T25 post below.

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&t=505219 

Been into VW's for ages, but decided to get a van as we go camping a lot, the missus does Kayaking and im a mechanic so will be handy for private jobs, i drive a Pug 107 everyday so that will be going soon too, as our circumstances have changed and its a little too small, i really dont want to sell that as its the best car i have ever had, but its the Pug or the van, and i fancy a change!

Mate, it's OK to admit you live on a trailer park - most Camaro owners do tongue out
