more restore pics

Here are some more pics of the 86 Z28 that my dad and I are restoring. So far the whole front end has been rebuilt, encluding new poly bushings, new shocks new brake rotors, rebuilt calipers, a new master cylinder and added a wonder bar. Every component has been taken aprart cleaned and painted. This car was abused for a long time.

Here are other links to some more pics also.

Looking good.

Sure it will be nice when done.

Just dont use the word "resto" or "restored" unless your returning it to 99%+ of what it was when it left GM.

later

Are you going to make it all original? Or custom?
