Default Yellow "Z06 convertible" pictures - project complete!

No, it's not a Z06 but that was the easiest way to write the subject I took about 600 Meg worth of pictures today and picked out a few to post -





















Look for this car on the Hot Rod Power Tour in a few weeks!

Let's see what's under the hood, or hasn't the modding been done yet?

Another pic from Battleship Cove -



Engine compartment -


And interior -



Actually need two more things to totally finish it (for now). The grey parts on the center console and each side of the cluster will be replaced with silver on Monday. I think that will look a little cleaner/brighter. Also need to locate some smooth painted fuel rail covers that will work with the supercharger.

Tom,

The car came out great! I'm also happy to see that you didn't put Z06 emblems on it. Now get out there and pick on some poor unsuspecting '06 Z's, LOL.

The car looks great, I can't wait to see it on the Power Tour. I love the wheel flares, I wish there was some way to do that for the f-bodies without buying a DH Camaro.

I also love the magnacharger, once again it would be great if we could fit one on the f-bodies. The instant low end torque must be intoxicating.

Take care, and we'll see you in Florida.

You, too, can do the same.. "2MCHPWR Parts".. but you would be tempted to charge "2MCHMONEY" or the parts may take "2MCHTIME" to arrive.
