You dont see to many 82-84 cars here with the original paint so here is mine. The only thing thats not original on the outside is the hood( its from 90 iroc 350) Last owner did that
whats everybodys opinion?
P.S Its hard to notice but it has pin striping down the side

awesome... i love cars with good original paint. keep it garaged and preserve it! sucks with the hood... you wouldnt happen to know whatever happened to the original one, do ya? well, the hood looks good nonetheless.

i really cant tell you anything about the clearcoat, but since your from ohio, i'm guessing your car was built at the norwood plant.... thus its got better paint than the van nuys cars...

I think it looks great... don't see many nice '82-84 cars around anymore. Look alot like my '83 Z28 HO actually, except my gfx and wheels are a copper color. I even have those black strips on the back of the doors too, lol 
My only suggestion - find a '82-83 Z28 hood... they look better on the early cars, and they are fibreglass. Thats what I have, and I love it.
