Hey so my neighbor used to own a 3rd gen Camaro years ago. His daily is an F150 and he wants a smaller car to run around in and thinks it'd be cool to get another 3rd gen.
So, that being said, an recommendations on what he should look for? Thanks guys. |

Look for G92 on the option sticker (usually in the console storage) to get the good suspension bits and posi. If it's an '87 350 IROC G92 is automatic so it wont be on there, but other than that you can wind up with peg leg and soft springs even on a mean-looking 350 IROC or '91-'92 Z28. Of course he might not mind that. Then there's the Sawzall fuel pump trap door. Some people don't mind this... others hate it. Regardless, it's ammo to lower the price. Also, 3rd gens are some of the least-garaged enthusiast cars in America and have wound up on an unbelievable amount of gravel and mud for how unsuited they are to it. There is lots of water-related damage to many T-top cars.
