Those clean LT1s are very far and few between. I went to Carlisle this week and could probably count the cleanest LT1 cars in the single digits. Nice find Josh. Good decesion too.

Sorry I'm late on responding to this one guys. Just saw the replies. I got it for $8,000 and paid a few extra bucks for LT1 Edit and a laptop from my buddy. Overall not a bad deal considering its KBB value was around there and with the brake upgrade and lighting upgrade I thought it was justified.

The windows got tinted today. 45% on the windshield, 15% sides and rear. It looks awesome. Putting the clear side markers and Hooker catback on tomorrow and possibly doing the hose mod on the rear springs to drop it every so slightly.

Also considering putting my old ROH Snypers on the car. The Z06s are nice but common and they dont have a lip. The Snypers have a small lip and you never see them around. I'm considering it.

The current Z06s...


The ROH Snypers...

And that coming from a Z06 wheel owner. Nice. I do like the Snypers on there quite a bit. I liked the charcoal grey at first but I feel like its dragging the car down a bit now. The car looks alot brighter and cleaner with the Snypers on it IMO. The Z06s do look down to business though. Its a tough call.

I personally like cars modded from their time/era as well.... To me LT1 Z's will always look good with Chrome Monte Carlo OZ's because that's how you saw them back in the day (in RK Sport ads at least ). That's why I had them:



Snypers (an older rim choice) look good on your LT1 Trans-Am and any Third-Gen... Probably not as good on an LS1 Trans-Am.

Newer rims obviously can go on anything, older rims have to match the times the car was around in and these do

That's awesome dude.
I really like the painted interior parts, and honestly think you should paint some more of the door trim.
Also, I'm REALLY digging those OEM Z06 wheels. They really set the white off but not as stark a contrast as black. They really do look good!!!
