Hey guys, I'm a subscriber to GM High Tech and just got my new issue yesterday. The cover car is a 1992 Z/28 and it's a beautiful car! It actually looks like a near clone to mine because it has Ronal Firehawks as well as Red Stripes on Arctic White Paint (Herritage). It was actually pretty funny because at 1st glance I thought it was my car on the cover lol. Does anyone know if the owner is on 3rd Gen Forums (Danny Judski)? Thanks.

 

Yep Im a member Thats my car

 

A likely story..

 

^

 

NO BULLSH$T THATS MY CAR

 

The month after I let my subscription expire due to lack of 3rd gen stuff, they put one on the cover. Go figure.

 

pictures or you're lying!

 

It's about time GMHTP put a 3rd gen story in there. I stopped reading a few years ago because they did nothing but 4th gen, Corvette, and GTO stories. Maybe I'll go buy this issue.

 

this is the first issue i received and i was really surprised by that beautiful heritage Z28 on the cover seems i picked a good start with it.
nice car to whoever owns it! but before claiming that we wanna see the pics

 

i need to get this issue if it has a third gen in it.

hey blown92 do you have any pics of your car.

 

guess no pics

 

was the featured car form ORLANDO?

 

Yes Orlando (Casselberry)

 

oh i see you are going to want me to go buy the issue.

 

going to get it tomorrow. If the car is in orlando Im only a short trip away to check it out.

 

tpi383 where are you located?

 

its a feature car right? if it is yours then the best to you for getting it in there. i wanna see it.

 

sarasota area. about 2hrs from Orlando

 

92....if that's your car I wish you'd post some more pics. Im the TC and have a car that is a near clone to the cover car (91 RS, Firehawks, Red Stripes on Arctic White paint). I would not hesitate to post pics of that beauty if it were mine!!

 

This month, meaning Nov, Dec or.

 

It's actually the February '10 Issue. Here's the spread for all you guys who haven't seen it yet:

 

Is that what stock white looks like all cleaned up? Nice.


Red leather ftw!

Oh damn, power and everything!

 

Yeah man, a good wash and good coat of wax can make the arctic white look like glass!! It's a very nice color!!

 

I saw this car at Mike Norris' shop in the Orlando area earlier this year. Definitely one of the nicer 3rd gen's out there. Congrats on the cover.

 

That's awesome! A good sign that the GMHTP folks are open to our cars. I am definitely going to try and get in that mag once my car is done!

 

Finally got a copy of it(takes a little longer to get things in Afghanistan). That is an incredibly nice car for having factory interior and paint. I actually like the addition of the Firehawk wheels too. Congrats on gettin the cover 92blownz, hope to see ya around the boards more often. I know it says you don't race the car in the article, have you ever considered takin it to the track just to see what it runs?

 

I didn't build the car for a drag car, I would hate for "stuff" to happen a car is only original paint 1 time

 

do you not have anymore pics of it from your own camera.

 

Due to the similarites between my car and this feature I felt compelled to give my '91 a little more character. I went to Summit Racing and bought a Harwood 3" Cowl Induction Hood today!

Let all you readers be informed that I stake claim to the Cowl Hood on the white & red striped third gen bearing Firehawks!!! Lol. Just kidding, I would say having a car that looked so close to a beauty such as 92's is pretty good problem to have : )

I'll post pics of the new hood as soon as I get it painted (unfortunately it probably wont be til sometime in early spring, blah.)

lol dude if u ownd the damn think u wouldnt be so hesitent to provide sufficient proof.

 

I picked this up last weekend. Ive been reading GMHT for over 10yr's now. I remeber back when it was 80% Thirdgens 10%Gn's and 10%Lt1's. Now LSX cars have taken over hot rodding IMO. But anway, I really did enjoy youre article. Car is a beauty. And im also in the process of building a blown and stroked motor for my car. I also luv the clean stock look of this cover car. You really cant beat it. Similar to my Trans Am, stock appearing, and packing some heat at the same time. WELL DONE...


BTW, You must have a dyno run or something to give us?

 

if it belonged to blownz he would had been the one who started this thread
sufficient proof has not been provided so big donkey ****

 

What sucks is that the badging is wrong and the heritage badge is in the wrong location, other than that, it's a beautiful car. That gap on the passenger hood blister would drive me nuts, lol.

Also hate how the mag rags on the fact that it's a 3rd gen, like they are beneath fourth gens and vettes. "Different strokes," "At first, one may wonder why not a Corvette..." Don't like that, but obviously they still make sales on the mag.

 

Here are some pics of the car.

 

2 more.

 

ok... im a believer
dude

 

Holy cow, beautiful pics man!!! Your delay made us all skeptical, but better late than never.

I really wish I would've went with the white accented Firehawks after seeing them on yours. I think at the time I bought mine it was a $400.00 option over the satin finish and I didn't think it would be worth it. Boy was I wrong!

 

92BlownZ, Is the Procharger intake pipeing powdercaoted or painted ?

 

That car looks eerily familiar, but a TAD different now(no stripes, piping is silver and interior isn't red):





I think the guy that owns or owned that one was named Danny too. I pretty sure his interior back then was not red but may be mistaken (has been awhile, this was in 03'). He also lived in Florida (where these pics were taken) and hung out at Corvette Masters. He ran around with Mike (think that was his name, has been forever) with the vortech supercharged 383 carb'd Iroc.

 

SAW THAT ALSO..
thats alot of work put into a car. to place the Badg on the wrong side..
what Gives with that?

 

Great looking car. Period!!


Mark.

 

Are those stock translucent turn signals or are they after market with clear lenses. I'm looking to get a set just like them.

 

For the people that have asked the car could be for sale, It would be priced in the mid 20's including original block Thanks Danny

 

That is one clean Maro.I just wanted to know what stb is that? I have a bmr brace but I will be converting to and hsr and wonder if this will clear it.Thanks

 

The headlight buckets should not be black on a heritage. I like them black though. Same with the grill.

just looked at the sales brochure from when i bought my 92, and the heritage car shown has black light buckets.

 

I agree. With all the work I would make sure the badges were right. Can easily just take picture of RPO with vin and problem would be solved.

 

it's not factry any more..anyway..

just another moded Camaro..Looks good.. I will say thay..

But would look better with every thing in the right place..

 

how long did it take in between doing the photo shoot and getting the car in the magazine? Justin shot my car back in early nov. he told me anywhere from 3 to 9 months., I am hoping its going to get in and be a feature...but who knows. good to see a third gen in that mag. nice job.
