My brothers sweet 94 Z28..You guys must check it out
This car came a long way, my brother bought this car about 4 years ago orginally forest green hardtop with no motor or trans. My Brother bought this car when he got cancer to get his minid off of things. The past year we have been working very hard on it, we built a pretty nice LS1 for it. We had the engine in and everything from a donor car so everything was pretty straight forward but somehow we had some wiring issues and the car wasn't starting. My brother passed away at age 23 this past June and since then ive kept goin on it. Well here it is i wanted to show everyone. Notice under the hood all the wiring, computer fuse box is all under the dash now. so everything looks very clean. The car is about 90% done i still have to do something for the air induction and doing something different with the radiatior. The car is still going to get lowered in the front. Im also going to procharge it and put a 6 speed in it. I would like to get this car into a magzine one day. He also has a trans am (not the one in the pic that is mine) my other brother will be taking care of that car. He loved F bodys very much. I really wish he could have got to drive this car because he put so much work into it but i knwo he will be riding with me. Let me know what you guys think.

Car looks really clean you and your bro did a great job on the install/exterior mods. Glad to hear you are going ahead and finishing it without your bro. I know thats what I would want.

That is a beautiful piece of work. Know he is looking down on you and he is very proud of the work you guys have done and the work you did to finish it in his honor. I am sure that the time you two spent together working on it was infinitely more meaningful to both of you. Cherish that car as long as you possibly can.

The car looks great. Try giving Scott Parker at GM High Tech a holler and see if they are interested in a late model hybrid swap. If not try Chevy High Performance, those guys are truly down to earth. I think that it would make for a great article, not just from the human aspect but also from a technical one as there are a good many late model f-bodies around that folks could pick up on the cheap and put some elbow grease into like you and your brothers have to make a wonderful ride. I am truly sorry to hear of your loss and hope that knowing you are finishing his work helps to ease your pain. I am sure he is smiling with you.

Deeply sorry to hear about your Brother, May He Rest In Peace.
I always wanted to do an LS1 conversion on my 95 LT1. So many people have said it can't be done and it's really expensive and pain in the ***. I gave up and started modding my LT1.
