Over 1.4 billion people worldwide watched this global jukebox on TV. The mission of Live Aid was to get the world to come together and make people aware of world hunger. General Motors partnered with MTV and Radio City Music Hall to plan there own special idea. There idea was to bring two of America's newest flagship sports cars, the 1985 Camaro IROC Z, to the concert which was held at JFK stadium and these vehicles would then be signed by all the entertainers who performed there. Some examples of the 100+ signatures are Chevy Chase, Don Johnston, Bette Midler, Jeff Bridges, Eric Clapton, Ozzy Osbourne, Bo Diddley, Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, The Four Tops, Tom Petty, Mick Jagger, Run DMC, Neil Young, REO Speedwagon and Carlos Santana.

Twenty-five years later, the car it's 100% original and only has 746 original miles. Documentation is included. This is a true piece of automotive and music history.
