Car: 1984 z28 camaro Engine: 305 | Re: my project(frequent updates):) heres the rear plastic panels in my trunk that i got sick of looking at because of all the scratches and stuff, plus they were faded tan and black so they were quite ugly, so i restored them to a nice shiny black
and the new GM shifter knob i just got in

Car: 1992 RS 5spd, Primer Black..... Engine: 5.0 TBI/ swapping in Carb'd 355 Transmission: T5 Axle/Gears: Open rear diff with 3.08's | Re: my project(frequent updates):) It's looking real good man, I'm doing the samething to my 92 RS, and I'm doing my interior first. Eh, and a motor swap, but I'm doing it slow as well. I do a little everynight when I get home, and I'm at the point where the interior doesn't smell like a standing puddle of water, my wife even goes for rides in it now lol. |

Was the door molding for that car taped on or did you paint over the rivet holes? I usually don't like the gray gfx on the early Zs but those look sweet. Hopefully my car will look that good when I get around to restoring it. |
