Re: 1990 IROC 5.7L red coupe - far west Chicagoland area

Nice car, but I'm a bit partial. A white 90 very similar just sold today on BAT for 36K, almost same rpo set up with 14K miles so you should hold firm on your price on this one. Good luck!

Looks like the rear dics have been upgraded as well considering a JL 102 were not in production yet.
