Here are also a couple pictures of the IROC interior that I forgot to post before. That sits in storage for the winter. So I will be getting back to it in the spring. Hoping to get alot of progress done on this now that I got the body almost done.

Grill looks good, shifter idea is pretty cool, not sure how well it will work, I have never tried to mod anything like that, let us know how it goes!

Looking forward to seeing pics of your IROC project once you get into it.

Thanks. I'm hoping to get a lot more done with the IROC this year.

Been really busy working on the 2nd gen this last winter. Added dash courtesy lights and changed all the interior lights including gauge lights to LED. Upgraded the stereo system with bluetooth and Polk audio speakers, added a radio power off delay and interior light delay fader timer, installed Lokar pedals, Halo headlights with LED headlight bulbs, got the grille powder coated flat black along with the door sills and new Lokar throttle cable. Not sure if I forgot about anything else. I'll be getting back to the IROC in a week or so. Here'* a bunch of pictures of my winter progreses.

Ya that is really coming along nicely! Interior looks great, paint is done, lighting nice too.
Good work!
How'* the sound from the kick panels, any vibrations?

Thanks! I have not heard any vibration from the kick panel speakers as of yet. I did put baffles in behind the 6.5" speakers. So that might be helping with the vibrations. I will also be putting in Dynamat or something similar this next winter to seal the interior up. I've heard that stuff makes a big difference.

Well I'm going to be selling my 18" Milanni wheels that I used for summer weather on the Riv for 2 seasons. The wheels are in great condition. 3 tires are still decent shape with about half tread life left. One tire went bad and I never replaced it so one wheel has no tire. I haven't used these in 2 seasons now and they are taking up space. I will include the chrome lug nuts I was using on them. I'm asking $550 OBO. This is pick up only. I will not ship.

Wheel specs are Millani Kool Whip 18" 5x115 bolt pattern and the 3 tires are Faklen FK 452 245/45R18.

Here is the place you want to post about for sale items, you need to post some pics with the post though, you'll more than likely have them seen more in the GM'* Sale section..

GM'* For Sale - GM Forum - Buick, Cadillac, Chev, Olds, GMC & Pontiac chat

Thank you for the link, but my first sentence says "going to be". They are not officially for sale yet. That is why they have not been posted in that section yet. As for the pictures. There are plenty of them with them on the car in this thread. I was going to be posting more picture when I put them up for actual sale.
