The is her coming off the truck when I first bought it:
About a week later I went back across country for school (after realizing trying to drive it to Florida from California in its questionable mechanical condition wasn't a great idea , so this sat to collect dust, so here it is a few months later the day after I got home for summer, after a wash and wax:

Re: Pics of when you brought it home
I fell in love with a 1986 IROC when I test drove one new.i was 26 and broke as hades,but I thought ...one day. fast forward to 2009 when I found my car in a barn where it had been since 91.a fully loaded 86 IROC TPI and all! I had to move 63 round bales of hay,two tractors and a combine to get her out and on the roll back.

Re: Pics of when you brought it home
Heres some pics of the cars Ive had. First was a 85 I bought in 08 from a lawyer which was the worst mistake ever as the thing looked mint but a complete rust bucket
Next is my 89. Got it as a roller on a dolly car but is solid
Now im moving onto a 86 Z28 as I want a car thats all done by me including the paint as if you havnt noticed all of them have been red and im really not a fan of red
It looks like a basket case but its the most solid 3rdgen Ive ever seen

The night I picked up my '88 Formula 350. Engine, trans, and various parts in the bed of the truck. Not bad for $1500

Her names Monica. She was 2 grand and had 161k miles on her. A year later she still runs great, but is no longer as pretty following an accident.

Day I traded for her. She still looks the same except the interior. Going through and fixing everything to 100% then worrying about cosmetics.
At the point of this picture she didn't run due to fuel pump, had bad valve seals, leaking vss, and a batch of other things.

Here are two photos of my '87 GTA the day I brought it home in March of this year. Also a photo of my former '91 Firebird when I first got it in 2005.

Re: Pics of when you brought it home
Definitely hard to find them like you said. There is a twin to mine local (super small town at that) but he has it all gutted and cages for a track car. Was surprised to see it at a car show last week.
