Why did I hear "White Snake" when I saw that pic?

It's actually an 82-84 Z28. You can tell the year by the front nose. It's a lil more squared off than the later ones. They revised them in 85. The turn signals and the lil vent under the license plate are the easiest way to tell.

I had an 84 Z28 back in the day... 350 swap..built up pretty quick..

But this is a different story... an "abomination" would be my description of this POS...lol
