Great looking Z! I have sort of a dumb question though. Are the TT2'S in reference to the wheels? Are they made by American? I have a 71 z28 coming out of extended hibernation this spring and would like to replace the current cragar ss's with those wheels. You know you can go on websites and look at different wheels, but seeing them on a car like that, WOW.

Wow! I didn't realize so many people disliked the oval gmmg tips. I thought they looked cool. Heck I even went as far as polishing my whole exhaust. It is extremly dirty because I haven't had the time to put it back up on the lift to clean it up after all the ice and rain we've had.
I think you should tint your windows, if you're into that sort of thing. I know it looked really nice on my car, but I have a hardtop.

Verdad Gallardo I polished that exhaust in May of 2008 and haven't touched it since. I drive my car everyday. I'm sure you can see from the picture that it has been holding up okay. When I first did it I had it off the car and it took me about 5 hours with a pheumatic polisher, and it looked like a mirror. What's really cool is at night my wife said her headlights would reflect off of it when she was driving behind me.
Glad to see you got the brakes on your car! they look great! I'm sure you answered this already as i did not read through the whole thread, but what do you use to polish the exhaust like that? I have used the mothers polish recommended to me by some Harley guys but can never get pipes to stay that clean!
I use an aircraft aluminum, metal polish called "Met-All". It's pretty expensive but well worth the metal, and to be honest, if you don't know anyone in the aircraft industry I don't know that you could get it.

Same can and name brand but mine says "Metal Polish" instead of "Aluminum Polish". Maybe it's just the picture but it looks just like that can with a different label. It's also cheaper at your link than what I pay for it.
