Gateway Classic Cars of Dallas is excited to offer This 1990 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 IROC-Z Convertible, a professionally built modern muscle machine that perfectly blends classic third-generation F-body styling with serious LS-powered performance. Finished in eye-catching Red with iconic IROC-Z graphics and sitting aggressively on Foose wheels, this drop-top Camaro delivers the look, the sound, and the performance to back it up.
Under the hood lies the heart of this build: a GM Performance LS3 Long Block featuring a Stage 1 camshaft (GM Spec #19432422) with approximately 10,000 miles since installation. The engine bay presents clean and purposeful, showcasing the modern LS intake manifold, updated accessory drive, aluminum radiator support, and a well-executed swap that maintains a tidy, show-worthy appearance. Power is backed by a 4L70E automatic transmission and routed to a stout Currie 9-inch rear end, giving this Camaro the strength to handle the LS3's output with confidence.
The performance upgrades on this build are extensive, with over $60,000 invested into its transformation. Supporting modifications include a header package, BMR fully adjustable race torque arm, tubular panhard bar, upgraded lower control arms, sway bar, subframe connectors, new coil springs, and rear shocks. The underside photos reveal powder-coated suspension components and rear disc brakes, emphasizing that this build was done with both performance and durability in mind. A roll bar and kill switch further reinforce its performance-oriented nature, making it equally at home on the street or at a weekend track event.
Inside, the gray cloth bucket seat interior remains clean and driver-focused. A Dakota Digital dash replaces the factory cluster, providing modern instrumentation and a clear, updated readout while maintaining a cohesive look with the original cockpit layout. The center console flows into the automatic shifter, and the car retains a factory-style feel enhanced by the added performance touches. The convertible top has been replaced, allowing you to enjoy open-air cruising with confidence.
The exterior is classic IROC-Z, finished in Red with bold side graphics and a low, aggressive stance. Foose wheels wrapped in Firehawk Indy 500 tires (245/40R18 front and 275/35R18 rear) give the car a muscular footprint while improving grip and road manners. The paint presents well and complements the car's iconic late-80s/early-90s styling, ensuring this Camaro turns heads whether parked at a show or rolling down the highway.
This 1990 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 IROC-Z Convertible represents a rare opportunity to own a professionally built LS3-swapped drop-top with substantial investment already completed. With modern horsepower, upgraded suspension, reinforced drivetrain components, and timeless IROC styling, this Camaro delivers serious performance at a fraction of the build cost.
