Re: My Baby!

Paint is CLEAN! Great condition for a 27-year-old car.

Wheels might could use a touch-up though.

EDIT: Where'd you get that front plate? That is really cool.

Re: My Baby!

Have you got a link for the front plate? I looked on ebay but couldn't find one like it. Would like to get one for my son for Christmas for his Z.
