As I found it under a tree... 92 Z03 Convertible A4 with 94k



Still going through the restoration process, but starting to feel like I'm getting somewhere.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
Its original but it was drove hard and put away wet! We think we know who originally owns the car but not 100% sure (buddies friend's mom may have bought it new and they would always bury the speedo and the speedo needle has been broke twice?
hmmm?) 91k on the odometer
Where we found it

1984 Z-28 H.O. --- 31,000 original miles --- original paint/stripes --- window tint /ac refrigerant updated to r134 / tires / Hurst shifter are the only changes.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
a few more:
I wasn't crazy about the solid white letters (first set of pics) on the Firehawks, so I had the blackwalls put to the outside then outlined them with a white craft paint pen to better resemble how the original Eagle GT's would have looked. Turned out okay.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
^^Looks great! The clock in the console is a classy touch. Is it just me or was that car lowered? Looks like there is less wheel gap and less rake. Either way, sharp looking car.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
drjewalton: Awesome car, but get a proper shifter right away. The smooth black ball is ok, but the stubbyness of it is ludicrous.
Wait a minute! Maybe it just looks like that because of the angle of the camera?

Actually, car is not lowered -- all factory suspension. But I wouldn't be surprised if the shocks/struts/springs are just tired and worn out some!

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
Yeah...camera angle makes it look stubby...it is a Hurst shifter so it's about an inch shorter than the factory shifter, but still sticks up above the console a good 5-6 inches. I have since replaced the Hurst shift **** with my original leather wrapped ball that came on the car, and the leather boot covers most of the shifter, so it now looks more original...much better in my opinion. I like the tighter pattern of the Hurst shifter.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
Also forgot to mention....I did replace alternator belt because original was splitting (never broke-saved it). Too afraid I'd lose it while driving. Anyway, some of you may have noticed on the engine pic above. All other belts,hoses,etc are factory original.

91 GTA w/92,745 on the clock. It's original on the outside. I have some tasteful mods under the skin. These were taken before the borla install.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
1988 Canadian IrocZ, LB9 5 speed, no AC. No power anything apart from power windows and power rear hatch.
Only thing not original is the hood. Someone had it repainted after a small incident (there's still a bulge in the bumper support structure that shows in 1 headlamp bucket and they painted the sections in front of the louvers black. Also the headlamp buckets are painted glossy, not correct





That's 82K KM not miles

The '91 and '92 Trans Am GTA is the sexiest F-body ever made IMO. Your cars looks great, guys!

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
I have never been a big fan of the 91-92 Birds but I gotta tell you they are growing on me. I think I want ONE now lol. Of course I had not really seen to many until this thread. In fact (you guys are gonna hate me for this one) I was not aware that they actually made GTA's past 89 until recently.
By the way all three of you guys have some very awesome!! cars!
Cant wait to see yours when it is done Carlos.
EDIT: Although it does make sense I would start liking them. My favorite model of the camaros is the 91-92 Z28

91 B4C T5 - never put in to police service
Every performance option except 1LE (meaning no bigger brakes)
Radio delete
Almost zero other options - Original orderer had his priorities straight
Original tires and muffler in attic... original R12 disposed of properly somewhere and replaced with R134a, aftermarket floormats since it came with none from the factory, aftermarket hidden iPod hookup (behind radio delete panel and wired through the ashtray)
Yes, I have taken the mudflaps off...

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
Thank you to the comments above about the GTA. I have taken a lot of care and effort to keep it really nice. It is rarely driven anymore, but when it is, everyone usually comments on it.
Thanks again.

Re: Post your "All Original" Or "Stock" Thirdgen Pictures
Thats a very nice car! Are those mud flaps from the factory? I've never seen a '91-'92 Camaro with mud flaps before.

Not sure... I think they might be a GM Accessory from back in the day. No markings on them. Definitely did their job keeping the fenders clean and were't too much of an eyesore, but I wash my car and avoid bad weather/roads enough that it's not an issue.
