Wow, some nice-looking cars here!
I know that this may be a long-shot, but does anyone have a line on the rims used on either of the cars below?? I really like both of 'em...

I liked the GunMetal Grey Z w/ the SS hood. Only downfall is the Ttops. I've grown to loathe Ttop cars. Its either no roof or the whole roof for me.

G-Flo..thanks for the props...your car is awesome too!
Your's is the only other car that I have seen that sits as low as mine on the 18' IROCs...great job!! Car looks bada$$ lowered like that!
You need to get some better pictures of that beast. It's a shame to have such a nice car and not to trully show the beauty of it in pictures!
Awesome engine as well! I just finished my 383 project and after a test drive today, I know I am going to have ALOT OF FUN with it this summer!

I think this summer i am going to pay a pro photographer to take a few pics, i dont know what i do wrong it seems no matter what the pics i take turn out poor.
the current engine has never even been turned over, ive been so bussy, the engine was installed last july! its now a 358 or so .040 over with a 3.5" stroke. it should put down around 500 to the rear wheels. im getting it dyno tuned in about a month.
thanks for the comments!

Thank You!!
the roll cage is a comp. engineering, but i welded some of the bars in locations that allow easier in and out, and i also added a few bars for strength.
ill post a pic of my new ZO6 wheels, maybe some will like them better?

Old post...this one was taken in Europe...you can tell by the license plate. Can't make out the country though...too blurry.
Edit....ahh someone beat me too it. What I get for jumping to the end without reading all the posts!

Love the paint scheme...two tone definitely has it's advantages.

Wow, this is an old thread. I didin't even own my car when this thread was started. I didin't even have my license! Anyway, here is my POS. I had it painted about 2 years ago, i'd say it still looks good for a daily driver.

Hey gflo383 did you ditch the 18" Irocs for z06 wheels? Also what lowering springs are you using? Any rubbing issues?
