Default My Z-28 in all its glory!

In the past month or so my Z-28 has gotten some much needed love and attention. It started off with a new paint job, then I got her some new tires because the old ones were at the end of their life span. Of course I made a nice smoke show before I gave 'em up. Some broken interior parts like the dash pad, seat belt guide, and mirror trim were replaced, and I've detailed it front to back, inside and out.

Here's the smoke show from this past Wednesday.



I got it washed today and went out for some pictures.



The engine bay after a good cleaning.



Custom upholstery up front. (These are old pics but nothing's changed. Except for cleaning the grunge in the door sills. :p)



More custom upholstery in the back.




It's been just over four years since I brought it home and it's been a mixture of fun and frustration getting it here. It's just about finished save for a couple small things, and I am looking forward to getting it in the big car show here in about three weeks. If you want to see more pics, just check out my Fquick garage either to the left there or down in my sig.

Thanks everyone! Now that this one's finished, I can get started on bringing my other Camaro back to where it should be.

I was definitely fed up with them! But they were also about worn out anyway, so I figured I'd send them off the right way.

Man that's the cleanest LT1 engine bay I have ever seen. If the engine bay and interior of the used 97ss they showed me, right before they showed me my Z and fell in love with in 2000 was like that, I would have bought that car. Awesome Z.

It's good to see that some LT1 owners take care of their cars. Nice!
