My Z4C was altered by GMMG. It is now Performance Edition #34 of 50. It has the same driveline as the Dick Harrell 02 Supercars. Maximum Effort C5R by Roberts Racing. 630 hp/600tq 7.0 liter 12 to 1 comp., Strange 12 bolt/4:10, SpecIII clutch, 18" Crager with GY Supercar F1s. If you have heard one of Matt's new DH Camaros roar to life you know what mine feels like.

Mine is a beast, I can't imagine what that Nickey 1000hp ride must be like. It's gotta either break something or just roast the skins off.

Yup.

The Z4C, was the Red 35th Anniversary LE

The Z7D, was for the Silver version used to Pace the 2002 Indy.

Hookerf14..............your car is cool. Love the Cragar SS wheels on it. Matt and I just got those here a little while back. Matt and I went together and ordered them so he would have them for the cars he was modifying and also to supply his dealers with (i.e., Berger, Earnhardt, Tom Henry, etc.) and I would be the source to retail them to individual customers. Anyway, cool car. Enjoy ! ! ! !

Is this Jason??? Jarrett is on the road to Texas, so it can't be him. Were you there when my car was built?? I just got off the phone with Matt, I forgot to ask him about pictures taken during the build out.

ps; Thanks for the compliment! I love this car and always dump loads of accolades on the GMMG brand.

That's cool, ..., I imagine they did it just to be a bit retro, ..., like the mid-late '60s cars with the redlines were back then, ...

I figured that maybe you could be young enough to not know of them!

I think it's a neat idea, but personally would have a hard time usin'em myself too, ...

No...............I'm not Jason or Jarrett and I wasn't there when your car was being modified. I've just know Matt for awhile. Knew him long before I ordered my '02 ZL1. I am in the automotive business also and have used Matt/Mike/Ron to assist me in my business. They are all GREAT guys and I am glad to know them and recieve their assistance when I need it.

How many Nickey Camaros did they make?

I was at the Car Craft show here in the twin cities and seen that red 35th Nickey drive by. The car is gorgeous...I love the redlines!! It was also at a performance shop in my area....for whatever reason.

I found the place that sells those tires....I'm considering a set with some other 17" wheels....

ps..that car actually made 1011 rwhp.

When my 35th LE grows up it wants to be just like that one.
