I don't understand what you mean. How I understood it, all Camaros are f bodies, what do you mean f body?

So it says IROC and its a 4th gen? They don't exist, either 89 or 90 was the last year for the IROC, not sure which.

The hood looks like a stock one. Maybe dipped down in front of the now functional vents? Idk.

IROCs ended in 90. Started in 85. Someone probably got some 3rd gen decals and stuck on 4th gen. Looks kinda neat though.

Looks like the stock one on mine. Broken hood supports in the front.

1- all Camaros and Firebirds are Fbodies no matter what year or generation they are

2- IROC-Z was only produced '85-'90

3- IROC-Z was NEVER produced with a V6 engine as pictured on that blue 4th gen

4- IROC-Z stickers on a 4th gen is teh gay

SS and IROC-Z are two totally different trims. IROC stands for International Race of Champions and it was a promotional marketing scheme with GM and the race series. SS stands for Super Sport and was thought of and produced solely by GM. Also, I've never heard of an I-ROCK

I've heard that the 5th gens won't be F-Bodies due to the fact they are a complete redisign after the 8 year hiatus

True, but it's not in production yet, so my statement remains true.
