Wow...that IROC car looks awesome! I thought IROC was run with Camaros (IROC-Z). With a few changes and decals my car could look pretty close to that one no doubt. Whats wrong with my whale tail...is that the wrong one?

The car is not rusty...the paint job is very nice and theres only a few rust bubbles...he even gave me some leftover paint to touch it up. The floors and underneath are solid. And the body kit is not ricer...look at that sweet IROC car with the same kit! I don't think I coulda bought any other car for 5G that looks as nice as mine.

C'mon guys....

"Don't hate the playa,
hate the game"...:D

OK I'll give you the non-ricer part. You're right. All I saw was the wheels.

A few rust bubbles are what we call 'famous last words'. Give me a magnet, an icepick, and five minutes with your car, and a case of beer says I could break your heart with what I would find.

And again, if it has a 4 cyl beetle motor in it (912E), you got fscked. Even if the rust bubbles are ALL there is and there's nothing else rotten below the surface. He just lied, pure & simple, and laughed all the way to the bank. He pulled a classic d-bag sales move.

You guys are killing me! :D

think the front pan might look like this?

for 5K i know it have more than bubbles...front and rear windscreen cowl must need changing, right now youre seeing bubbles, but believe me there is more going on, put the car on a lift and go through it, check your floor pans, suspension pan, pedal area, rockers and everything you could see under there....

or like this

DTW is right about the rust, a little bit showing can turn into a real mess in a hurry. I have personally made that voyage, it sucks.

Here is a picture of a 912 motor, is this what you saw?

now Rich, that's just cruel!!! He could have gone to sleep one more night thinking he's got a 911 if you hadn't posted that pic. :D

Yeah...does the motor look like the pic on the prior page, or does it look like this:

What are the odds the previous owner had the body kit installed and entire car painted to hide the rust?

Rich...that's one heck of a "rats nest" you have there! ;)

i think you guys scared him away

Playa, the 912E generates about 80HP considerably less than the 76S, If your engine looks like the pic below then you have a flat four VW 2.0 with FI

If you want heart stopping perforrmance (it sounds like you do) then put the 3.0sc engine in it with the sc transmission & s brakes, you wil need to upgrade the electrical system
Alternately if you keep the type 4 Jake Raby at aircooledtechnology.com is doing some amazing things with the type 4. http://aircooledtechnology.com/type4/912E/index.html

Just my 2/c but I think the car would look much better with some readily available and within your price range 16" Fuchs or Cookie cutter wheels
Good Luck !

Whatever for?

My guess is this is the cratch-slapper.

But you'd have to hang out on PPOT to know who I mean.

Lubey?

I never knew people on this forum were talking about the same IROC either.
