Car Details:79' camaro road & track day toy. 383 stroker, 5 speed TKO trans, lots of suspension stuff, 13" Vette brakes, 18" wheels.
Location:Luton
I'm no 3rd gen expert but I had a 86 Iroc for years.

Check for rust in usual places, wheel arches, door bottoms etc...rear suspension bushes wear.
Apart frin that same as any 2nd hand car:
Check for oil/water mix in rad, white residue on dipstick, check all lights work on dash and all switches work, auto shifts ok etc.

Good luck !!!!!!

Thanks for info,had a look and car drove ok,but this is the first one i've driven that has a leather int.i couldn't get seat low enough so i could fit in without driving with my head tilted due to lack of headroom.I've driven others with cloth int but i could drive them sitting upright. Is it normal for the leather seat to sit higher, price wise they wanted £2300 is that about right for an 89 5.7 iroc z28 ?.
