Yes there's here a lot of car shows, in the Hague we have montly the biggest meeting from europe, there always between 500 and 700 US cars.

There are a lot US car enthousiasts, only problem is that the parts are expensive here.

The mirrors are designed to fold back.If anyone wants mine for any reason,they can have them,they are ugly compared to the standard ones.I've also changed my lights for standard ones.The speedo was changed to a 140mph one by the previous owner.I suspect there may have been some differences to the engine,but I'm not sure,but that is long gone anyway!If Tom can give us anymore info on the differences,that would be great.

Hi guys,

I'm glad that you know the differences about a Z28 and a Z28e, because i see no differences between them, mines have normal taillights, speedometer is also the same as the US version, the only thing what is different that i have turnsignals in the frontbumper and no foglights.

But on the licensepapers stand Z28e so i wrote it down

Look on http://www.prostreetcar.com/nascar.html for some pics of my car mayby one of you see any differences.

greets,
Tom Brochard
