Got inspired by all the new pics that you all have been posting - so I went for a drive today to take some pics on this beautiful (but cold!) fall day.

Perfect as usual, Ken. Those wheels look great on your car. I loved the TT2s, but these are even better. All these fresh pics really makes me wish I could take some

Just stunning - that paint looks dripping wet, absolutely beautiful. That car would turn heads anywhere but it Norway it must draw crowds!

Wow looks great. Now like Mike-in-orange said it must draw crowds out there in europe, but do people over there even know what it is?? I can imagine there are practically no f-bodies in europe so what is the reaction you usually get from people about it.. im curious!

Thanks guys!

Yeah, it does tend to turn heads. I occationally have seen people walking around it to try figure out what it is, walking away in the end just as clueless after finding "Z28" on the rear bumper

There are actually quite a few f-bodies in Norway - but they are 99.9% strictly summer/weekend cars, so you'll hardly find any daily drivers. Now that doesn't mean that they are all show worthy

Here in my town there are probably 5 or so thirdgens, but mine is the only ragtop.
I'd say there are probably about 20+ ragtops in the entire country.

As for my car - Im pretty confident I have the only SS hood in the country, and definitely the only set of Boze's on a thirdgen over here

BTW, I always save pics of Norwegian thirdgens when I see them - so one day I'll put up a little gallery over them!

they are 2lbs heavier and it's noticeable. they ride is actually no different at all but you can notice it in the weight area. great for cruising but the car has alot of power and i throw the 16's on when i want to play... just means i need more power.
