This 1986 Camaro IROC-Z convertible, with its original factory white paint finish and black custom cloth interior, is so rare that even knowledgeable Camaro fanatics consider it an urban legend. Only 82 IROC-Z convertibles were produced during the ’86 model year, and the whereabouts of most are unknown. This unrestored-original example is the fourth such white IROC-Z Camaro convertible produced in 1986 and resides in the small city of Fenton, Mich., northwest of “The Motor City.”

From its factory grease pencil paint marks to its 245/50VR-16 Goodyear Gatorback tires to each one of its belts and hoses, everything on the featured IROC-Z Camaro is factory-original and in pristine condition. With slightly more than just 3,200 miles on the odometer during the time of the photo-shoot, this IROC-Z has always been trailered to car shows by owner Dan Boratynski. At those shows, more than one judge over the years has asked Boratynski for documentation proving his Camaro IROC-Z was originally a convertible, because some judges don’t realize any such beast was built that way for Chevrolet in 1986.

A well preserved example, but not something I liked in the first place.
220 HP/320 LB-FT torque was about as much power as you could buy in those years.
