Default Detailed the '68 and also some pics of the '95

I completely detailed the '68 today. The pics speak for themselves. There are also a couple of the '95(check out the new Z badges).








Yes, I climbed on the bridge for this picture.








Thanks in advance if their are any compliments.

Thanks! The paint is actually Intense Blue(Dodge Color) and the stripes have a blue pearl to them that is apparent only in direct sunlight. Heres a pic that shows it a little bit. The tires are actually only 255/45/17. They have the stock wheel wells(no minitubs). I would like the car to be dropped a little bit, but the longtube headers would have to go. They are just now not knicking everywhere.

Nice Camaros. Why did you paint the surrounding grille on the '68 black?

To be honest, we bought the car like that. My father and I were shopping for a car that had the body work done, but needed the motor, drivetrain, suspension, and such(usually a rare find). Then he stumbled upon this one that was finished for the right price. We swapped out the old 15" centerline wheels for the 17" Cragar's, and some other little things. Like I mentioned, we have C5 brakes ready to go on all four corners(except I forget I need two left-handed calipers for the back), power steering, and some other pro-touring stuff. But, the grille was painted like that when we got it, and I really like the gray grille with the black headlight bezels. I'm not sure how if I would like the all black grille or not?
In reality, the '68 is my dad's car and the '95 is mine. I'm a 20yr old student at Ohio State so the '68 is outta my budget. The '68 is a bit of a shared project, dad owns it and I draw the detailing duties. I would love to lie and claim it on the board though.
Thanks for all the comments on the CME. I was one of the lucky few that just happened to check on SLP's website when they were on clearance(CME's on clearance, imagine that). I bought both the valence and tips for 30% off. When I called the order in, the salesman told me they had about 10 valences left and 3 sets of tips. I'm not sure if that was a sales pitch or an accurate assessment, but I gave him the payment then. I have only seen ONE other LT1 with the CME, so I feel rather privileged. Haha and I just answered NineBall's short question with a huge answer.
