Default So today at the junkyard..

This weekend was half off at the junkyard I decided to stop by for the helluva it with a friend. I probably passed by this white z28 3 times before I realized it was a 98 Z28 with extensive front end damage. Motor trans gone BUT for the hell of it I decided to see what shocks it had. Took a look and there yellow..they were Koni SA's, then I noticed the subframe connectors, weld in though. Car also had a Global West Adj. Rod Ended PHB, Global West Tubular front control arms, & a Global West Chassis Mounted Adj. TQ ARM. Got it all for under 200 bucks. Happy Birthday to me!
