Thanks for the input.......I'm glad you guys like the ZL4 concept. My local guys didn't seem to like the idea. I thought it was pretty cool........so...you know who's vote counts..lol

It's going in a 94 Z28 convertible.......with a few body mods!!!!!!!
just a few

After you figure out the acronym to use, you can finally get to figuring out what the code word to get into your treehouse will be

It's going to be a street car.....leaning toward lexan. We don't have state inspections so I don't anticipate any issues. If I do....they'll have to catch me..

Well....I'm not sure if Patroit Red has enough pop for this project....but I like the shade. I have a spray out of Venon Red Metallic that looks pretty sweet.
