Go with a color that shows the lines off real well. And of course 2 inch cowl, and some nice off set wheels. Thats how I would fix that thing up anyway.

This is the color I would pick if I had to do it all over again


This color would show off the lines really nice just my 2 cents

Yea man you have the right idea with the 20" irocs. There's an iroc in my neighborhood that drives arounds and is super clean. The guy painted it like a dark charcoal grey with20" chrome irocs and blacked out tail lights. Wish I had a picture but hope it gives you an idea.

This is a sound clip of my old 84 z28 I had several years ago. It was a piece of ****, but it sounded tough. Plus you cant beat ghetto rigging a 5" tach under the dash.
