Re: New paint job on 84 Z28

Thanks, appreciate the comments. I started driving this car on my dads lap when I was 5, so this car has alot of sentimental value to me. I bought it off my dad about 4 years ago, now I'm in the process of returning it back to it's glory. So yep I will be putting the gold stripes back on it also. The car still needs more sanding and buffing done to it first. Still also have to redo the ground affects as well, but you can only do so much in a weeks time.

An the recognition goes to my dad that did the painting, in which hasn't painted a full car in like 10 years. It helped having 27 years of experience in the field.
