Revamping a Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z , on the Hot Rod BBQ Podcast! - a podcast by Hemmings

Back in the mid-1980s, classic muscle cars weren’t that cool, there were just old. Cars like Bandit Trans Am’s, Chargers, AMXs… sure, they had a following, but they weren’t sought after like today. Carburetors gave way to fuel-injection, and it seemed like every new car sold had air conditioning and power windows.

And while late 1980s tech was cool 35-years ago, today, it could use an upgrade. That’s why we here at Hemmings have decided to revamp a 1987 Chevrolet Camaro IROC-Z with a new EFI crate engine, a slick new 5-speed transmission, along with a host of other goodies. On this episode of the Hot Rod BBQ Podcast, host Mike Musto and Hemmings Terry McGean tell you why we chose this iconic Camaro and give you a little insight into the 6-part video series that you’ll soon see on the Hemmings YouTube channel.
