Looks terrific! Identical to mine except for the interior - mine has the midnight green deluxe interior, but I don't have the deluxe seat belts.

John, thats awesome,
does you have the endura bumper? both of my previous Zs had chrome and i really like the endura.

mine has a gardner chambered exhaust which is louder than hell, but i love the crackle.

thanks
Aaron

Nope - regular chrome. Will be at the Rochester Heritage Car Show in the Rochester City Park all day Sunday (grass and trees along the river - not a hot asphalt parking lot)

cool,

I wish I was free... and had and extra 100 bucks worth of turbo blue that I'd use up getting out to Rochestar. LOL

i had the car out all day today as it was beautiful, but these ORIGINAL NOS AC R43s are fouling out on me. LOL I bought some R45s and a new rotor for the motor, I think i saw a crack in it when I was detailing the motor this week...

should clear up any misfire and I'll be back on the road tomorrow if it is nice out.

thanks

43's and 44's will both foul around town in that engine - I run AC R45S plugs in mine, have never had one foul.

Aaron, I have an extra original air cleaner and a G.M. replacement radiator support (NOS). Let me know if you have an interest. I bought them thinking I would build a fuelie and then ended up buying one.
