the IROC is now streetable!
Put it back on insurance the beginning of the week, got the exhaust back on and cleaned it up today. I'm still only going to use it on nice days and use the t-bird as my daily driver. The IROC is kept in a garage thats only 10 minutes from my house. I snapped some pics today and went for a spirited drive. What an awesome feeling! I did noptice that my fans weren't turning on and the temp would climb when the car was sitting, guess I'll pay a visit to the parts store and buy new relays.
Enjoy!
~Ted

Very nice. Any chrome wheels in it's future? So much shine on the car... not so much on the wheels. Some nice chrome 17/18" chrome iroc wheels would be ****.

Nahhh, too much "bling" goin on then. The car looks great the way it is. I'd be driving that every day. Then I'd be cleaning it every Friday and complaining that it was too nice to drive every day!

I take it back. Chrome definatly would be too much bling but polished would complement the car very well. Just my opinion. I figure hey, if you're going to complain about keeping wheels clean then why the black glossy car  . You'll be cleaning that so what's an extra bit of elbow grease to keep the wheels polished?
All in all it's a great looking car!

I worked at a body shop in paterson. It was first done by the painter and since then I've repainted the pass. side door, drivers side fender, front ground effects, rear bumper and the windshield trim. My boss sold the shop this past february and the building is now a mechanics shop.
