@ThePatriotsfan01 The G92s from the ealy 90s had third brakes lights in the hatch too bro. As well as some third gens had them in the spoiler. def dont check wiki for info, they leave out somethings. I hate when guys put different pieces on the third gen..confuses others what year it is. They changes alot of small stuff like they did in the 70s. Not calling you and idiot bro, just hate when you here those guys talk as if they know all about them. But you seem to accualy do your research

@ryanjh2005 Dude I own a 1986 iroc and a 1988 iroc ( I have pics to prove it ) and the 1986 model was the only year that had the third brake light on the outside of the window after which it was mounted inside the spoiler. Don't believe me or think I am an idiot then go on over to here wikipedia Chevrolet Camaro (third_generation) It says it on the 86 year hell call Chevy go to a library I don't care but either that is a hatch from a different year or he does not know what year it is.

@ThePatriotsfan01 The side skirts are not from 196 for sure, but the front bumper is, and the hatch third brake light came on other years as well. I know because I've owned four third gen f-bodies. So leave him to his camaro and stop picking it apart. That TPI sounds tight and looked clean..IMO the yellow motor is UGLY but its his and I respect that. Dont go pointing fingers about this car when you dont know jack about them.

If you don't want it I'll so take it. I'll make you an offer.

@ThePatriotsfan01 a hatch from another year would still fit, the motors do, mine was an 86 with an L98, combo wasnt available, but mine had it, and my vin read as an 86 no 3rd brake doesnt mean its not an 86
-
@GetsumJ yea, i had an 86 that had centerbolts, mine didnt have the original motor either

That's definitely not an 86 hatch it has to be an 85 hatch. I have an 86 Iroc Z with D88 package made the very first month of the 86 model year and it is on the outside of the hatch. It was on the inside in 85 and moved to the outside in 86 then from 87 to 90 it was in the spoiler. Nice car though I love the color, but it is hard to tell if it is realy an Iroc, there are so many fakes out there. Does it have the Orangeish red Z28 Iroc Z bade on the dash or just the regular Z28?

hows the ground clearance on that exhaust? ive been wanting to do that same thing on my 87. do you think it would possible to pull off with long tube headders? thanks
-
Nice ride i love the color. Def a mut many diff parts but i like it a lot.

@Kodiak8788 The light was on the outside in 86 smart guy. So I am not sure HOW MUCH you really know your third gens. It was the only year to have a third brake light on the oustide of the hatch, not inside!
Umm that is not an 86 unless you removed the third brake light off the hatch window which is on the 86 and is the only year to feature that light.

I noticed the motor is a centerbolt 350 which they didn't put in IROCs until 1987. Did you change heads ? Love the color.. been contemplating the same color. I don't know if GM still calls it Atomic Orange though. I think is is now called sunburst on the later Vettes. Nice ROC though. Mines an 85, 7th Camaro I have owned in my life

@GetsumJ Yes Sir you know your Camaros! thats a good eye, The block is from a 94' truck and the top end is from a 89' TPI. The car is a hybrid of a little bit of everything, it was in ROUGH shape when i bought it and i was going to restore it BUT i think i'm just going keep it as my knock around ride b/c i really want another 88' or 89' true 350 TPI 5 Speed....all original and restore it as all original. This one is my 3rd third this body style but all have been automatic...
