  • HI! from flint. just crashed my iroc :(

    hey guys! im a college student going to Kettering university. I have a 1989 camaro iroc which i bought for 1500$ with half the interior missing. i bought it a couple months ago from a guy who was planning to restore it. he had a problem getting the car to start. but me and a couple of my friends fixed it up and got it running. i finally got insurance and plates on my car this tuesday and wrecked it a couple hours later.
    i was on a turn. and the car got stuck on full throttle. car started to drift the corner, hit a curb and then into a wall.
    i was very bummed up i mean i finally got the car legal and everything and all fixed up and just got a little too excited.

            well i was just turning and i was going to hit the breaks on the turn . and while i was switching my foot to press the brakes my friend kinda punched me really hard and said "WATCH OUT" as a joke and i guess my foot was still on throttle when i thought it was on the brakes

            sadly i dont have a indoor garage to fix up my car in. so i got to fix it up as soon as possible before it gets too cold outside

                    yeah i am. going to the junkyard tmr to see what i can find. i have an extra hood but the paint is faded away and its not the iroc hood. i have a front bumper but in bad condition. my friend has an extra fender that i am going to buy off him. rims are my biggest concern. i really like the stock rims but wouldnt mind looking into some new rims. any suggestions for rims that would look good on an iroc?

                          I've seen BBS cross-lace wheels look great on an IROC.

                          Welcome to the site, and personally I would probably stab that friend in the eye with an icepick.

                              i know im really mad at him but oh well shit happens you know.
                              i just hope the frame or anything is not bent
                              that would really suck.
                              im going to be working on the car tmr so i will see how that goes
