Well, they got it on the lift half right. That has to count for something. Like a C-negative? At least they didn't crush the fenders.
She's pretty. I'll bet if a person went under that honest undercarriage and blasted those control arms with a pressure washer you could even see where they were dipped. Interesting the endlink donuts look to be yellow. Also didn't realize that earlier Z28s had the towing blocks and the X plates between the airdam and fenders.

Just got new tires on my car and the idiots at Discount Tire crushed my fender mount!!! For years, the team at this location took very careful attention to do things correctly. The new staff looked at the car like they had no idea what it was. They obviously didn't know how to lift it. And they used 4 jacks, not the lift.

I Know It Can Be A Hassle But When I Need To Replace A Tire Or Tires I Remove My Wheels And Bring Them In,I Don't Trust "Any" Tire Store Lifting My Car.

Gotta look past the lipstick on any old car, too bad it looks sharp .
Wheels, bring them in. i had only 10 mi on my Camino, parked it at the tire shop to ask about mounting if I brought them in.
I left the keys on the floor....well Hector figured assumed it was going on the rack, despite my yelling did it anyway and highsided it on the headers..brand new flattened. Shop did nothing, raised hell and left.
Day it left the bodyshop called AAA to flatbed it. Idiot caved in a fender and crushed my exhaust all in 5 minutes.
At that point it sank in nothings perfect drive the chit out of it. Its just a car.
