She's ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!!
LOVE that color.

Mine's red.

Is she a Z51 car?

Did you do a little burnout in the driveway? Looks like it in the picture. She'll burn tires MUCH more than that.

Very nice looking and as you know I appreciate the 84 more than any other C4 because the 84 was the most progressive sports car of it's time. The engine placement, the windshield angle, the aluminum a-arms...the list could go on and on. The 84 started it all

3rd Brake Light

I see you have the 3rd brake light. I thought that didn't start until the 85 model. Or am I just nuts???

I'm pretty sure the third brake light was available in the aftermarket for 1984s and 1985s ...

No, not a Z51. I like when the kids scream, burn rubber! Have to accommodate!

No, not nuts! That's a tounge twister! When I bought the car back in April of 2003 it was already in place. I actually didn't know it belonged on the car until a forum member pointed it out about 2 years ago.
